While in the middle of massacring some NPCs, my triggers started acting silly.

In all my triggers, when I had: SetVariable ("something", "somethingelse") it stopped working when I had the parenthesese, but SetVariable "something", "somethingelse" works.
An example, sans parentheses (working version): 

<triggers>
  <trigger
   custom_colour="17"
   enabled="y"
   expand_variables="y"
   group="Affliction"
   keep_evaluating="y"
   match="^The flames eat away at your skin\, causing you to writhe in agony\.$"
   name="Burning"
   regexp="y"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
   other_text_colour="darkorange"
  >
  <send>SetVariable "burning", "1"</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>


Also, I get this whenever anything happens, presumably due to another trigger affected by whatever my problem is:


Error number: -2146827286
Event:        Execution of line 4 column 9
Description:  Syntax error

Line in error: 

if "x" == "x" then
Called by:    Immediate execution


I want to know why all my triggers are suddenly silly, if I can ever go back to the way they were, and... anything else I could be told!

I would like to add that I just tried a copy of a trigger using a different world and it worked just fine with parentheses.

It looks like you switched your scripting language from Lua to VBScript, maybe.

Go to Game -> Configure -> Scripting and make sure the Language dropdown at the top is what you expect it to be. Probably Lua by what I'm seeing.

Yay! Thanks for the help! That seems to have fixed it, even if I have no idea how that happened!
