Grimrock

Hi All,

Was testing my dungeon as a Custom Game (i.e Not through the Editor) and the game crashed when clicking on a Healing Crystal.

Error log below;

pfire_script_1: cannot serialize table 'spawnid' with metatable

Hmm... solved it.

The problem is global variables used to store values that are not integer or text.

In my original code the variable 'spawnid' was used to hold the result of a findEntity() call.

Make it a local variable (by putting local in front of it) and the problem goes away.
