The default block for an actor should be declared by using the word "default" followed by the things that you want inside the block, surrounded by braces.
You open a brace before the word default that shouldn't be there.

However, your code is confusing - and I'm surprised it got as far as line 11 before throwing up an error.

You are inheriting from Doomplayer (presumably to try and change the weapon slot allocations). However, you are not creating a player actor, but a weapon. So that's not right.
You also have a mixture of DECORATE and ZScript syntax.

I can't guarantee that the following ZScript will work/do what you want, but the game should at least start with it loaded.

Code: Select all

Class SilencedPistol: Weapon
{
	Default
	{
	inventory.PickupMessage "got the 1911 pistol";

	Weapon.SelectionOrder 250;
	Weapon.AmmoType "clip";
	Weapon.AmmoGive 8;
	Weapon.AmmoUse 1;
	Weapon.SlotNumber 2;
	Attacksound "weapons/Fire";
	}
	States
	{
	Spawn:
		STND A -1;
		Stop;

	Ready:
		SSSS A 1 A_WeaponReady;
		Loop;

	Select:
		SSSS A 1 A_Raise;
		Loop;

	Deselect:
		SSSS A 1 A_Lower;
		Loop;

	Fire:
		SSSS BCD 4;
		Goto SilencedPistolFire;

	SilencedPistolFire:
		SSSS B 0 A_PlaySound("Weapons/Fire", CHAN_WEAPON, 0.7);
		SSSS B 1 A_FireBullets(1,1,69,20,"bulletPuff");
		SSSS C 1;
		SSSS D 1;
		SSSS D 1 A_Refire;
		Goto Ready;
	}
}

Glad you got it working. No need to feel dumb, especially when you are learning new skills.
