| Summary | 0000623: ``While'' and ``when'' are not completely interchangeable |
| Description | Normally ``while'' and ``when'' are interchangeable, but in the attached source the particular combination ``while'' first, ``when'' second is rejected. Other combinations are allowed. The problem message:
- - - -
Problem. You wrote 'Instead of jumping while looking when true is true' , which seems to introduce a rule taking effect only if the action is 'jumping while looking when true is true'. The part after 'when' (or 'while') was fine, but the earlier words did not make sense as a description of an action. I am unable to place this rule into any rulebook.
See the manual: 7.1 > Actions
