i followed this tutorial : http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-636.html
this is my .gsc file:

Hmm, that's supposed to be
flag_set( "knife_sequence_done" );

not:
level.flag_set( "knife_sequence_done" );

must have been a typo while I was making the tutorial. Could a moderator correct this in the tutorial as well? Thanks.

Sorry about that.

Also these lines

#include common_scriptsutility;
#include maps_utility;
#include maps_anim;
#include maps_stealth_logic;

Should be:
#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\_utility;
#include maps\_anim;
#include maps\_stealth_logic;

If that could be corrected too, I would appreciate it. Thanks!

ow i get this error:

It means you don't have an spawner with a key/value "targetname" : "knifer"

did you set up your map properly?

yes, i have one in my map :)

so i don't understand the error

Did it have the spawner box checked?

no, stupid of me
and now i get tis error:

do you have a node_scripted with a key/value of "targetname" : "knife_node" ?

i didn't had it :p
but now he doesn't give any errors but he just shoot him. Not knife.

I think it's something with call the function how do you do that ?
