I'm getting a syntax error on the output line (@value = ) of the following script, with the message "Error parsing parameter 3 of function". Might anyone know why?

Code:
<calculate phase="Setup" priority="1000" name="Calc Bonus">
	   <after name="Level final"/><![CDATA[

	   var level as number

	   level = hero.tagvalue[Level.?]

	   @value = 1 + round(level / 4, 0, +1)

	   ]]></calculate>

if you want to round up it would be round(level/4,0,1) not +1

Code:
<thing
    id="drgBrthTyp"
    name="Breath Type"
    compset="RaceFeat"
    description="Choose the type of damage your breath weapon causes.">
    <fieldval field="usrSelect" value="Fire"/>
    <arrayval field="usrArray" index="0" value="Acid"/>
    <arrayval field="usrArray" index="1" value="Cold"/>
    <arrayval field="usrArray" index="2" value="Fire"/>
    <arrayval field="usrArray" index="3" value="Lightning"/>
    <arrayval field="usrArray" index="4" value="Poison"/>
    
    </thing>
I'm trying to incorporate the above racial feature from the 4th edition files into my race choices. It is properly bootstrapped to the relevant race. However, no drop down menu based on the array appears in the Race tab to make a selection. The power name does appear in the summary window and the Special tab as the default: "Breath Type: Fire". I've successfully set up thing-based racial feature menu selections using tag expressions for usrCandid1 for other racial abilities. I'm not sure what I'm doing differently between the two methods such that the array menu in this case is not visible, but the thing-based menu in the other case is. Am I making another stupid mistake? Thanks.

Never mind, it was a tag issue! Took me half a day to figure that one out.

BUT I still don't understand why for an array-based menu I need to attach the ConfSource.Race tag (I'm working with the 4th edition data files), but for a thing-based menu specificed with a tag expression in usrCandid1 I did NOT need to, even though the table element clearly has a list element specifying that I must have that tag.

Do you know anything about d20? When I go to the downloaded d20 data files, all I see for source are .dat files, no .def or structure files. Where are they?

That's probably all contained in the pkg files
