Can't load my lua file

[Rick]

I get this every so often and I forget what I do to make it work. At the top of my main game script I often want to load my own scripts that I made. I know sometimes it works because that Scripts/Timer is mine and it loads fine right now (I made it months ago), but then I create a new file and try to add it "/Scripts/GUI/GUIManager" and now when I run the editor it says can't open "Scripts/GUI/GUIManager".

 

/Scripts/GUI/GUIManager.lua exists in my games path

 

At the top of my main game script

require("Scripts/table")
require("Scripts/Timer")
require("Scripts/GUI/GUIManager")

are you sure your file is not "GUIManager.lua.TXT" ?

or try to move it elsewhere more simple to be sure

So actually that didn't work. It worked because I had that same file in my leadwerks directory. Can't I make the editor read the scripts folder under my own game directory? I would think the path options would do that and I have that set to the Scripts folder of my game directory.

i don't think so, the abstract path read all the "leadwerks" folders/sub/folders
