Darn Bloody COG won't start!

Hi!
I'm trying to make an intro COG. I think I've done it right. The COG writer says nothings wrong with it. And I see no gliches. So what's wrong?
Code: 
# Ugnaut reads and sings
#
# By Edward
symbols

message		startup

thing		ug
thing		8t

keyframe	sit
keyframe	walk
keyframe	stand

thing		lights
thing		camera

thing		door

thing		officer

thing		door2
thing		droid2

sound		UgSing
sound		8tGetToWork
sound		UgOK

int		inturupt=1	local

end
#
code
startup:
	ThingLight(lights,0,0.01);
	PlayKey(ug,sit,1,0x000);
	SetActorFlags(GetLocalPlayerThing(),0xA00000);
	SetCurrentCamera(0);
	SetCameraFocus(0,camera);
	sleep(2);
	ThingLight(lights,1,3);
	MoveToFrame(camera,1,1);
	PlaySoundLocal(UgSing,1,0,0xC0);
	sleep(GetSoundLen(UgSing)+1);
	inturupt=PlaySoundLocal(UgSing,1,0,0xC0);
	sleep(3);
	StopSound(inturupt,1);
	MoveToFrame(door,1,8);
	WaitForStop(door);
	ThingLight(lights,3,1);
	PlaySoundLocal(8tGetToWork,1,0,0xC0);
	Print("8t: Ugnaut 4145, you have work to do at sector 1414.");
	sleep(Getsoundlen(8tGetToWork));
	PlayKey(ug,stand,1,0x000);
	PlaySoundLocal(UgOK,1,0,0xc0);
	Print("Uggy: OK...");
	sleep(GetSoundLen(UgOK));
	AISetLookPos(ug,GetThingPos(GetLocalPlayerThing()));
	AISetMovePos(ug,GetThingPos(GetLocalPlayerThing()));
	PlayKey(ug,walk,1,0x000);
	sleep(2);
	DestroyThing(ug);
	AISetMovePos(8t,GetThingPos(officer));
	SetCameraFocus(0,GetLocalPlayerThing);
	MoveToFrame(door,0,8);
	sleep(1);
	MoveToFrame(door2,1,8);
	WaitForStop(door2);
	AISetMoveFrame(droid2,1);
	sleep(2);
	AISetMoveFrame(droid2,2);
	sleep(1);
	MoveToFrame(door2,0,8);
	ClearActorFlags(GetLocalPlayerThing(),0xA00000);
return;
end

Now there is another COG that has the Startup message that converts the player into an Ugnaut, but I don't think that one is the problem.

Startup COG:
Code: 
# Always do this:

symbols

message		startup

model		ugnaut=u2altx.3do	local

end
#
code
startup:
	SetThingModel(GetLocalPlayerThing(),ugnaut);
return;
end

Go here. Download Parsec. USE IT. It will answer your question.


Also, download CogPad. It provides an interface that is, IMO, better than CogWriter. (it also allows you to pass the cog to Parsec without having to save it first).

THANK YOU! IT REALY HELPED! I found that 8t was incorrect. "Don't use a symbol that starts with a number!" And I forgot the brackets in GetLocalPlayerThing. As Kyle would say... "This should come in handy!"
By the way, I've read your sig, and I'm just wondering... Are you trying to say that your the center of everything?
