Case gives 100 errors, please help

[Relegant]

This case,

case 18302:
if (playerLevel[19] <= 1) {
guard();
addSkillXP(19, 50);
isNpc = true;
updateRequired = true;
appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
else	if (playerLevel[19] >= 1) {
sendMessage("You need a shapeshifting level of 1 to do this.");
}
break;

I made it by myself, and it gives 100 errors,
what could be wrong with it?

The code means,

if player level 19 (19 = shapeshifting) equals 1 or higher, itll turn your character into a guard and will add Experience to skill 19 (Shapeshifting), 50 experience.
But if the level is 0 or lower, it will send a message saying
You need a shapeshifting level of 1 to do this.

Please help, thanks.

Hard to say without seeing the rest of the code and the error messages. Don't assume that there are actually 100 errors. It could be a few errors or even one error compounding itself and the printout shows 100 errors when there really aren't. A single missed semicolon somewhere, a missing, extra, or misplaced bracket, a misspelling, etc., can result in 100 errors. I don't see any syntax errors in this code. You could be referring to a variable that doesn't exist or a function that doesn't exist or whatever. Impossible to say from what you have posted. Read the error messages carefully to give you a clue of what the problem is, fix the first error, compile again, fix the next, compile again, etc. It's very unlikely that you really have that many errors stemming from this code.

Well it is true, i think. When i delete this case i do not get 100 errors, it says.

My point is that often you only have to correct one thing to make 100 errors go away. You may not have to correct 100 things. This is just speculation, however. It's impossible to give you advice on how to correct the errors unless you post the specific error messages and you post more code.

These are all scoping issues. Your real error is not at these lines. When you get those types of errors, you almost inevitably are missing a bracket or have an extra one. The compiler thinks these are commands, not function headers, etc. Your problem is here:

case 18302:
	if (playerLevel[19] <= 1)
	 {
		guard();
		addSkillXP(19, 50);
		isNpc = true;
		updateRequired = true;
		appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
		else if (playerLevel[19] >= 1) 
		{
			sendMessage("You need a shapeshifting level of 1 to do this.");
		}

	break;

You are missing a closing bracket for your if statement. Everything else probably stems from that. Add a bracket before "break" on line 13. Indentation will help you catch those bracket errors since missing brackets will stand out much better when you indent.

[Relegant]

Thank you soo much!

[VernonDozier]

Thank you soo much!

You're welcome. However, I gave you partially bad advice and I screwed up on my own indentation. You are missing a bracket, but the missing it in a different place that I thought. Originally, I suggested this:

case 18302:
	if (playerLevel[19] <= 1)
	 {
		guard();
		addSkillXP(19, 50);
		isNpc = true;
		updateRequired = true;
		appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
		else if (playerLevel[19] >= 1) 
		{
			sendMessage("You need a shapeshifting level of 1 to do this.");
		}
       // put closing bracket here
	break;

It now looks to me that you need a closing bracket, but you are missing it before the "else if" statement, not before the "break" statement, so this:

case 18302:
	if (playerLevel[19] <= 1)
	 {
		guard();
		addSkillXP(19, 50);
		isNpc = true;
		updateRequired = true;
		appearanceUpdateRequired = true;

        // missing bracket HERE


	else if (playerLevel[19] >= 1) 
	{
		sendMessage("You need a shapeshifting level of 1 to do this.");
	}
        // do not need bracket here.  Already have one ending the "else if" statement.
	break;
