I'm trying to make a cutscene and I wrote this cog but it doesn't work and I don't know whats goin wrong.
If you guys could point out to me what I'm doin wrong I would appreciate it.

Code:

symbols

message		startup
thing		cam
thing 		pirate
thing		pirate2	

end

#========================================================

code

startup:

player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
SetActorFlags(player, 0xa00000);
StopThing(player);
jkBeginCutscene();
SetCurrentCamera(0);
Sleep(1.0);
Print("Pirate2: Did you lock the cargo door?");
sleep(3.0);
Print("Pirate1: I'm not sure.");
sleep(3.0);
Print("Pirate2: Well you should double check to make sure.")
sleep(3.0);
Print("Pirate1: Ok i'm on it.");
jkEndCutscene();
SetCameraFocus(0, Player);
ClearActorFlags(Player, 0xa00000);
end

Thanks,
Jim

You didn't declare player in symbols.

Capitalization
Commas
Periods

Ok I put "thing player" in the symbols area and then i tested it and it still didn't work.
Do you have any other ideas?

Code:

symbols

message		startup
thing		cam
thing         player
thing 		pirate
thing		pirate2


	

end

#========================================================

code

startup:

player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
AISetLookPos(pirate, GetThingPos(pirate2));
SetGoalFlags(player, 1, 2);
SetActorFlags(player, 0xa00000);
StopThing(player);
jkBeginCutscene();
SetCameraFocus(0, cam);
SetCurrentCamera(0);
Sleep(1.0);
playsoundlocal(beep, 1, 0, 0x0);
Print("Pirate2: Did you lock the cargo door?");
sleep(5.0);
playsoundlocal(beep, 1, 0, 0x0);
Print("Pirate1: I'm not sure.");
sleep(5.0);
playsoundlocal(beep, 1, 0, 0x0);
Print("Pirate2: Well you should double check to make sure.")
sleep(5.0);
playsoundlocal(beep, 1, 0, 0x0);
Print("Pirate1: Ok i'm on it.");
jkEndCutscene();
SetCameraFocus(0, Player);
ClearActorFlags(Player, 0xa00000);
end

Thanks,
Jim

You're missing a semicolon after the Print("Pirate2: Well you should double check to make sure.") line.
