Problems with 'Bad markup expression preceding end of line' in Verse code.

Development Programming & Scripting AI

I’m just starting to learn programming, but I don’t understand where the error is. Can someone help me? The context of what I’m trying to do is an AI that follows nearby players.

You have errors everywhere my friend, dunno if you copied this from someone or ChatGPT, but maybe learn Verse starting with beginner tutorials :+1:

ChatGPT is not really good at doing Verse right now :person_shrugging:

It is true but it can be useful, it helped me with another code and the code works perfectly, you just have to be patient.
