Expected Script or Global Error

This error occurs anytime it encounters content directly in an HSC file, which is not a script, global, or a comment.

A common cause for this error, is adding too many closing parenthesis ')', ending the script before you intend to. Applications such as Notepad++ highlight matching parenthesis to speed up error detection. Many people also use indentation to assist them in locating missing symbols, as well as a general understanding of how the code is broken down into sections.

Another cause could be if you simply misspelled the words.

Example 1 - Misspelled
(srcipt startup myscript ;;It's not declaring a script, its declaring a 'srcipt' whatever that is. (sv_say Haiii) )

Example 2 - Ended Parenthesis
(script continuous killpeople (unit_kill bob) ) (unit_kill joe) ;;This is outside of the script. )
