OTF Movement

[Himmy]

Anyone have a copy of a movement script for within OTF that I can run in SF? I've got this mangled ass version of one that keeps giving me match errors. I didn't write it, and I'm not much of a scripter.. I can post the problem section of the script along with the error, if anyone wants to help me fix it. Or just someone posting a working copy would be fine..
Thanks

Here's the error:
>.o aq
[Script o is running, Esc to cancel, Shift-Esc to pause]
>look
Script error[match label aq2aq not found] near line 29
[script aborted]
[Old Ta'Faendryl, Treetop]
A canopy of leaves blocking out most of the view of the sky and the ground below gives this treetop perch a feeling of privacy. It is not exactly quiet here, but the sleepy trill of roosting birds and whisper of a breeze passing over verdant green foliage is pleasant and soothing. The trunk of the oak descends to the ground below. You also see the Himmy disk, the earth brown Tharken disk, some silver coins and a blue wolf that is sitting.
Also here: Tharken who is sitting
Obvious paths: none

And here's the first bit of the script:

The rest of it is just the actual movement parts of it, this is the problem section. It's probably something simple that I'm just not aware of.

I wouldn't call that at all simple, actually... I had to look a dozen times before I realized the problem must be SF itself -- the script is probably water tight, but was written (and tested) in Wizard. If you care why it's doing that (my assumption anyway), read the last paragraph, but it's not necessary: if you want a quick fix, this will probably fix it for you. Just stick this single line in right after the MATCHWAIT

aq2aq:

... yeah, that's it; nothing more, lol.

This is what I think is happening: StormFront is being super-anal and it's trying to find the label it's supposed to GOTO before it even moves to the next line. That's... just plain fucking stupid, lol. I mean since there's no "aq2aq" label in the script, it's giving you an error even though if it would just run the damn thing, the script would probably work flawlessly. So anyway, just tack in the stupid label to satisfy StormFront and your problem should be solved.

Hmm, I'll give that a whirl and let you know how it works. Your explanation is kind of what I was thinking, but I don't know the script language to be able to fix it.

[Ta'Faendryl Approach]
Two massive granite sentinels reach toward the sky, flanking the road as it moves to the west. The sentinels are highly weathered, and their surfaces are pitted and cracked. No method of circumventing the sentinels presents itself if one wishes to continue along the road in a western direction. One must pass between the sentinels. To the southeast the road enters a spacious mud plain. You also see the Himmy disk.
Obvious paths: southeast

I guess SF just fucking hates me. Anyone have this script or a variation of it that'll work for SF?

[Shaelun]

Okay, totally off-topic: how the *fuck* does everyone seem to respond as though these are IMs, lol? Well whatever, probably some option I never bothered looking at... anyway, same problem. Just stick in this line:

tree2tree:

... and it should be fixed (this time a different one). Unless you find a script for SF that works just as well, I'm afraid adding in whatever stupid labels like that it ends up asking you for is the best you're gonna do. It won't hurt anything since the script will never end up trying to actually GOTO these labels, it's just to satisfy SF being anal.
