Hi again,

it seems there is some little problem with the quite new "switch()" command when using it nested... the game interpreter freezes!  
Example:

Code: [Select]

switch(Command.Verb)
{
  case "Use":
    ran = Random(0,3);
    switch(ran)
    {
      case 0: actor.Talk("That doesn't work!"); break;
      case 1: actor.Talk("That makes no sense at all!"); break;
      case 2: actor.Talk("What ?!"); break;
      case 3: actor.Talk("No! Get serious!"); break;
    }
    break;
}
In that example, the actor talks his sentence and then the game freezes. When using if/else in the case block, it works as expected.

Oh, and another little one: I can't set the default value somewhere else than at the top. I guess this is just "as it is" and correct, but I want to mention it in case this is NOT wanted.

For example:

Code: [Select]

switch(number)
{
  case 1:
    actor.Talk("Number ONE!");
    break;
  case 2:
  default :
    actor.Talk("Oh, TWO again. Seems to be the default value!");
    break;
  case 3:
    actor.Talk("AH! THREE!");
    break;
}
This throws a syntax error on the "case 3:" line. It works without problem by moving the "case 2:/default:" block to the bottom.

Thanks for helping.

Whooops! Another well hidden script compiler bug Fixed now (hopefully).

As for the default branch, it should be always the last one, it's meant to be that way (although I know it's a different behavior than in JavaScript...).

That was fast. Again. Thanks. Again.

Oh yes, that's possible. Actually everything is possible in JavaScript. I was not sure about the "normal" syntax, so at least it's nice to hear, there is NO bug!
