Good day..

This is my first time here, and to be honnest i have been playing CC for a couple of times now (lets say 7 months)
i have done a few mods for my self for fun, the basic crap.

But i still have these stupid problems with defining a couple of things, like Magazine etc.
Ive looked at Wiki, used Search on this forum but i didnt had the anwsers i looked for.
Could someone please explain me what it really means and how i fix it ?

Use spellcheck.
Also, in your post, you didn't use specifics. Give an example on what's giving you trouble.

You need to make sure that the instance "Magazine MMG" is placed before the actual gun. Also make sure that the magazine is also defined in the gun itself. If you renamed the magazine, you'll have to rename the instance name present in the gun part as well.

I hope that helps. You can pm me your file if you need more help. I'll look it over. :)

Edit: Example, taken from some random gun:

AddAmmo = Magazine
InstanceName = Colt M16 Mag <- has to match

AddDevice = HDFirearm
Magazine = Magazine
CopyOf = Colt M16 Mag <- has to match

The error says simply:

"Hey there, sorry but this code won't work, because:

Looks like you've put an instance name to copy from before it's been defined or that hasn't been defined at all. There's also the chance that you made a little spelling mistake, causing it to refer to an instance which is non-existent.

The error occurs on line 53, I recommend that you turn off word wrap and use the "Go To..." (ctrl+G) command in notepad to look at this line. If the line of code is incorrect I did a printscreen when this error occurred, I saved it as "abortscreen.bmp" for your convenience. This may show the correct line that the error occurred on.

Have a good day."

I hope this gave you a better understanding of the error messages.
