strange problems

Unity Engine

Hello, my names Avo. Ive been working on learning scripting in Unity by creating a few simple scripts so i can pick up syntax. Ive run into a few problems while trying to create a script that swings a stick though, the line marked in red is the one im having trouble with.

The error im having is (23,25): BCE0044: expecting :, found ‘}’.
The script is a java script.

var swinging:boolean=false;
var swinglocation=0;

function Update () 
{
	//Check if the player wants to swing his weapon.
	if (!swinging)
	{
		if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
		{
			swinging= true;
		}
	}

	//Swing the weapon
	if (swinglocation < 5)
	{
		if (swinging)
		{
			swinglocation += 1;
			{
[COLOR="red"]				transform.Rotate(Vector3.right * Time.deltaTime);[/COLOR]			}	
		}
	}
}

Thank you for your time and assistance! :smile:

If statements are not followed by semicolons.

Thanks! I knew i was doing somthing stupid like that! :smile: Thats really helpfull! I found another problem thats still baffling me though!. I know its another minor little syntax problem like that though…

transform.Rotate(Vector3.right * Time.deltaTime);

seems to be giving me the error

(23,25): BCE0044: expecting :, found ‘}’.

And once again, thanks for the incredibly speedy response :slight_smile:

Oh sorry, i edited the script at the top.

var swinging:boolean=false;
var swinglocation=0;

function Update () 
{
	//Check if the player wants to swing his weapon.
	if (!swinging)
	{
		if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
		{
			swinging= true;
		}
	}

	//Swing the weapon
	if (swinglocation < 5)
	{
		if (swinging)
		{
			swinglocation += 1;
			{
[COLOR="red"]				transform.Rotate(Vector3.right * Time.deltaTime);	[/COLOR]		}	
		}
	}
}

and the error is

(23,25): BCE0044: expecting :, found ‘}’.

Found the problem! I new it was some stupid little syntax error on my part! I had an extra set of brackets from previous work i had done to the code i forgot to take out.
