i just tried to replicate the error, but don’t seem to be able to do so, now im getting entirely new errors, they are listed below;
(I used a fresh project and clicked the “insert button” from the example itself)
My Input:
“Mossy Bank”
Include Basic Hyperlinks by Emily Short.
Mossy Bank is a room. “The shore here is made up of round rocks, very heavily grown over with a slippery grey-green moss. To the [set link 1]north[end link] is a small shack.”
Small Shack is north of Mossy Bank. “This little shack opens to the [set link 2]south[end link].”
A lantern is in Small Shack. “There’s [set link 3]a lantern[end link] on the floor.”
Table of Hyperlink Glulx Replacement Commands (continued)
linknum replacement
1 “north”
2 “south”
3 “take lantern”
My Errors:
Problem. In ‘Table of Hyperlink Glulx Replacement Commands’ , column 1 (linknum), the entry ‘1’ (row 2) is a genuine, non-blank entry: it’s a specific value. That’s fine, of course - the whole idea of a table is to contain values - but this is a column which already contains a name of a kind: ‘a number’ .
Names of kinds are only allowed at the top of otherwise blank columns: they tell me what might eventually go there. So the kind name has to go. You can replace it with a blank ‘–’, and then either let me deduce the kind by myself, working it out from the actual values in the column, or you can put the kind in brackets after the column’s name, at the top.)

(no more errors from here)
I really don’t understand why it’s making the errors, it looks sensible to me which only makes me more confused
