    The compiler has found an event it thinks is a door, so it's trying to turn it into a proper door event with all the correct event commands. The event is one with a single page containing a "Transfer Player" command, has no graphic, and is between impassable tiles like so (green O is the event):

    Code: 
    [COLOR=Red]X X[/COLOR]
[COLOR=Red]X[/COLOR][COLOR=Green]O[/COLOR][COLOR=Red]X[/COLOR]
    That's not the error. That's when the error appears, and it gives you something to look for.

    In your scripts, have a look for module PBMoveRoute and see if there's a Down=1 line in it. If not, there should be. If there is, find the problem event and adjust it so that it's not recognised as a probable door (the simplest way would be to copy-paste its event page without making any changes).

    Oh, and I took the liberty of changing this thread's title to one that's actually descriptive. You know, like the rules say you should do.

    Well, you got me this time with the rules... But thanks for the help! It turns out, after
    I get the error, (I did it through the external editor) I play it through Debug and save it, then it works on the editor again!
     
    Ah, External Editor. Yeah, that doesn't have the module I mentioned, hence the error.

    Generally speaking, it's probably best not to try compiling from the External Editor, for this reason. When doing a full compile, do it from within RMXP.
