Was told to post my project and the issues I'm having here. I literally just started it a couple of hours ago and am trying to get some scripts in it. Right now it has the default map and 2 events on the page, which you can look at in the project file. One's blank with a character graphic and the other is a gray tile which is action based and contains the script I thought would activate a random particle effect (just so I could get it working. I actually worked through five or 6 errors on my own before I finally got stopped here. And all it is is me trying to figure out what the hell I'm supposed to type in to select one of the particle effects in the script. I tried typing the various names it game me and it simply doesn't seem to work. I must be doing something wrong as I know the engine works from seeing other projects use it.) I have the graphics for it as well.
There are some other codes implemented but they shouldn't really affect this since they're just codes for modifying the save screen and adding pause functionality/shadows. Oh, and one for updating the character sprite depending on equipment but that's been untouched since I pasted it in. I copied the audio folder from a blank project since I haven't used anything I had in the folders yet and it would have brought the size of the upload up needlessly by about 245 mb.
I'm intending to use particle effects for blood if possible, flames, and basically just some weather effects (think the world map in Chrono Trigger's 2300 A.D.)
Here's the download link for the project. Just try running it first and you'll see the error message that I get. It doesn't tell me to refer to a specific line in the code, though the name in the error changes along with any particle effect in the default script that I try to reference in the event.

, gimme a minute.
EDIT 2: Fixed topic title and added the download link.
EDIT 3: If anyone would like to take a look at this without downloading the project, I'll post the code, as well as what I have in the event, and a screencap of the error message tomorrow. It's not a big file though.
