Will someone please tell me what's wrong with the 3rd line? I'm losing my mind:

string a = "hello";
string b = " world";
string ab = a + b;

Is it at the very top of the script? If so, move it into state_entry or some other event handler.

Can't do non-constant initializations in the global area at the top of the script...

I beg to differ, I do this in my scripts just fine.

Can you be more specific, there isn't anything wrong with line three that i see.

edited- you can't do the concatenation in the global area.

CODE

string a = "hello";
string b = " world";
string ab = "";

state_entry()
{
    ab = a+" "+b+" ";
    llSetText(ab,<1,1,1>,1);
}


not sure if that would work, im a bit tired XD

for this test script to work, you need to have "default" in there
From: Mrc Homewood

string a = "hello";
string b = " world";
string ab = "";

default//wasn't in there
{//and need a bracket here
state_entry()
{
ab = a+" "+b+" ";
llSetText(ab,<1,1,1>,1);
}
}// and here

and I'll assume, that the op didnt need any extra spaces =X

esentially it boils down to not being able to use variables or functions int the global area (before/outside a state) you can get away with some simple math IIRC (like 1+3 or some such... may even be able to combine rotations, never tried).... too bad as several things could be so much easier to preconfigure, although temptation would be high for some people
