Can somebody tell me why this code will not run?
String SPZ_GetWeaponString(weapon paramWeapon){
if (paramWeapon is "ColdFlame_Sword"){
return "\cgCold\ctFlame \chSword";
} else if (paramWeapon is "ExorSword"){
return "\cgE\cmx\cgo\cmr \ccSword";
} else if (paramWeapon is "IceyStaff"){
return "\cnIcey Staff";
} else if (paramWeapon is "FireyStaff"){
return "\cgFirey Staff";
} else if (paramWeapon is "Cerebral_Displacer_Staff"){
return "\ceCerebral Displacer";
} else if (paramWeapon is "Lightning_Staff"){
return "\ckLightning Staff";
}
}

Re: Return type mismatch with String [ZScript]
You don't have a return value outside of your if and else if statements, meaning that if all the if and else if statements failed, there wouldn't be anything for the function to return. You just need to add a return outside of your if and else if statements. It can be a simple empty string like return "".
