You could give more info on where you are getting that? what program? when it happens? a little bit of context.
I recommend you to start here though, there’s a lot of beginners info that can help.

Master List: Links for Beginners

Since this gets asked a lot I thought I’d try and create a master list of links for beginners. If anyone wants to add links to the list please feel free to since I’m making this wiki format. Start here for newcomers The Wiki ChoiceScript Basic Tutorial on wiki RETowers’ Tutorial by @RETowers Lglasser’s Tutorial by @Lglasser Dedicated ChoiceScript Development Tools You do not need to download or update ChoiceScript when using either of these tools.

"Invalid scene_list instruction, only allowed at the top of startup.txt"?

New to Choicescript, yay! I’m confused at the error since I thought I had it at the top? “startup executing QUICKTEST FAILED Error: startup line 4: Invalid scene_list instruction, only allowed at the top of startup.txt” My code looks like this: <!nav = new SceneNavigator(["startup"]); *title dnd campaign tyche *scene_list startup history nk_observations *create name "Unknown" *create class "Unknown" --> Thank you!

Here’s what I can find in google. For what I can see I guess you are starting a game from 0. You need to set up your startup.txt in order to work properly. Check the master list for beginners, there’s a lot of info there on how to do it.

@Sigvid_Hansson

nav = new SceneNavigator([“startup”]);
stats = {};

None of that is written with choicescript. This is a bit like asking:

“I want to learn French. Please tell me what I’m doing wrong with this French sentence: これはフランス人ですか？”

Edit: Noticed someone else having a similar issue. This bit of HTML seems to be popping up in the sample choicescript template. Just delete it.
