Archived?

Was looking for a thread where I got some help working on a personal gdf file for some guidance and I can't seem to find it anymore. Do they get deleted after a time or archived somewhere? If not, I could use some assistance again if possible.

Trying to get some help on something that Eric (I believe) helped me with a while back.

If possible, can you check this out and let me know if it looks good or I screwed something up?

Code:

_New Rote (%SpheresList%), Tech/H, needs(%SpheresAlt1List%), default("SK:Arete" - me::spheres),
	spheres(-1 + %Spheres1Alias% + %Spheres2Alias% + %Spheres3Alias% + %Spheres4Alias% + %Spheres5Alias% + %Spheres6Alias% + %Spheres7Alias% + %Spheres8Alias% + %Spheres9Alias% + %Spheres10Alias%),_
	x(#InputReplace("Please name this Rote:", "_New Rote", , "New Rote") ,	
	#ChoiceList(_
			name(Spheres),_

I believe I got everything in there correctly, but for some reason it's not showing up in GCA at all anymore (the older version that covers 1 - 5 shows up fine when I use it, but I've since expanded it to '9' as well as included Data, Dimensional Science, and Primal Utility which weren't in the older one).

Edit: I did see a few issues in the initial one and addressed them,however it's still not working as intended.

The forum software defaults to hiding old threads. To change this, User Settings=>Edit Options=>Thread Display Options=>Default Thread Age Cut Off, which you can change to "Show all threads". That may help.

The most common cause of 'not showing up' is mismatched parens or quotes.

When I looked at it a bit ago, it looked like a comma was missing after "Time 5" but it appears to be in your code now. Did you just fix that? Maybe I accidentally deleted it.

Anyway, your code as it is now has an extra blank line a couple lines up from the bottom.

Note: The log is your friend when working on data files.

I found both issues I mentioned above because I copy-n-pasted your sample into my Test.gdf, then loaded it in GCA. I then saw in the log that GCA found two different traits with mismatched parens. The text made it obvious that the second trait was actually supposed to be part of the first. This told me where to look for the problem.

Awesome... I did find the Time issue with the comma and fixed that. After removing the blank line a few up from the bottom - it now shows up and is working as it should be.

Thanks for the help, and the new trick to finding where something is potentially broken at! =D

Glad it's working!
