ummm, why the error? (noob at jass)

Linera	Why is this giving an error? JASS: local quest = a

Rising_Dusk	You didnt specify a name for the quest. JASS: local quest q = a That's all assuming 'a' is a quest. You can create new quests using -- JASS: native CreateQuest takes nothing returns quest So then... JASS: local quest q = CreateQuest()

now world editor crashes
current code:

JASS:

function Create_QuestREQ_DISCOVERED takes string title, string description, string iconPath returns quest
local quest q
    if (GetLocalPlayer() == Player(0)) then
        // Use only local code (no net traffic) within this block to avoid desyncs.
        q = CreateQuestBJ( bj_QUESTTYPE_REQ_DISCOVERED, title, description, iconPath )
    endif
returns q
endfunction

JASS:

q = CreateQuestBJ( bj_QUESTTYPE_REQ_DISCOVERED, title, description, iconPath )

That does nothing.

For starters...

JASS:

set q = //stuff here

Also notably, title, description, and iconpath are all undeclared and mean nothing to the WE.

Try putting in their respective data types into the function.

JASS:

set q = CreateQuestBJ(bj_QUESTTYPE_REQ_DISCOVERED, "Im a quest!", "Im a description!", "PUT AN ICONPATH HERE!")

ALSO!
At the end of your code, don't type "returns q", that's not the correct syntax.
Try this.

JASS:

return q

Linera	thx it works now.

iNfraNe	Only it will desync since you cannot create handles for only 1 player.

Actually, creating a quest for one player doesn't cause a desync.
I've attached a map to prove it.
try it online.
