I'm really, really new to modding (like, six hours old!) and I've just done my first sample dialogue to get an NPC to join.

Except it won't compile. Oops.

Would anyone mind me PMing the text over, to have a quick look at it? Likely it's a really simple error, but for the life of me I can't see it. (Starting to go blind from all the IFs!)

Also, when WeiDU tells you what line the error is on, is there any way of easily jumping to that line to work out where the problem is?

Thanks in advance!

You should use a program that has a line-finder. I use EditPad (improved version of notepad) which has a function that allows you to jump to a certain line. There's no spell-checker in it though, so I have to do all that manually.

I've also heard that Context is good.
