[Error] undefined method `-' for nil:NilClass

So I added some new encounters that I had in my previous 17.2 version (Honey, BerryTree and DarkGrass) and so I placed my encounters.txt on this pbs 18.1 Essentials.

Now I get this all the time

Spoiler:

Using the Vanilla Encounters from 18.1 doesn't fix it, either deleting the save file. As far I'm concerned, I haven't seen anyone with this error, so idk what to do to fix it

So, the code raising the error is:

Code:

    elsif needdensity
      needdensity = false
      nums = strsplit(line,/,/)
      if nums && nums.length>=3
        for j in 0...EncounterTypes::EnctypeChances.length
          next if !EncounterTypes::EnctypeChances[j] ||
                  EncounterTypes::EnctypeChances[j].length==0
          next if EncounterTypes::EnctypeCompileDens[j]==0
          thisenc[0][j] = nums[EncounterTypes::EnctypeCompileDens[j]-1].to_i # Here
        end
      else
        raise _INTL("Wrong syntax for densities in encounters.txt; got \"{1}\"\r\n{2}",line,FileLineData.linereport)
      end
      i += 1

The error says that EncounterTypes::EnctypeCompileDens[j] is nil, which happens if j is beyond the allowed indices (probably just 13 of something like that).

Find the module EncounterTypes and compare it with this one; my guess is that EnctypeChances is longer than EnctypeCompileDens in your code.

It was that and I managed to fixed it! Thank you so much!!! <3
