I'm going through a list of seemingly EASY scripts to install, and all of them stop at the same place. Line 41. I get a syntax error message before the game even starts. Every script I've tried to install, I have started with a fresh game with no other scripts [besides the stock scripts]. I've followed all the creators' instructions of where to place the script, and most of them all just say above Main. I put them above Main and below Materials.
So far I've gone through:

And then there's THIS! A Plug n' Play Script for having a shop menu appear over your map instead of a menu background. At least this isn't line 41 but it's just as annoying. ;9

It's a line 18 error. Which is:

Some of these probably have the easiest fixes, but considering I'm literally an R-tard with scripts, the fix's difficulty is much higher...for me. ;9
I'll laugh if they're easy to fix. [*crosses fingers*]
are you sure the line 41 points to the script your trying to insert?
it sounds like theres a problem with your default scripts. what error message appears
The 2 41 liners are both the same error:
QuoteScript 'KGC_Translated_ForceStopVictoryME' line 41: SyntaxError occurred.
The names of the scripts are different though.
for the 18 liner, its the same error, but on line 18 and different script name.
QuoteScript 'ShopOnScreen' line 18: SyntaxError occurred.
Well, you have the dubious honour of having the weirdest error I've ever seen. I still don't know what went wrong. But try replacing it with this:

It worked for me.
thank you thank you thank you thank you! That solves that scripty problem! Good thing it was the one I needed the most out of the 3. I'll throw this up as Resolved for now since I don't have a real problem by not using the other 2 at the moment.
