Could anyone tell me what this error code means?

[GameKid]

I stumbled upon an error while trying to make a survival game. If anyone here knows JavaScript, it'd be very much appreciated to show me what I need to fix. The WIP is attatched.



Error during simulation.




Alice version: 2.2 02/10/2011

What do you mean by that? You don't understand this fancy-dancy JavaScript, or do you literally mean you have yet to encounter the bug?

[Mr Kidnapper]

Alice is made using Java, not Javascript.
Basics of bug reporting
System
How the error occurred (So we can recreate it)

Analyzing the error:
NullPointerException - A property is null or blank. This is usually a vehicle (The blank default should be World) or a property in a method or event.
core.response.DoTogether - An error has occurred in a method containing a DoTogether. This rounds the missing property to a method or event.
at java.awt....(Unknown Source) - This rounds the missing property to all of these things. Perhaps a jet you attempted to make visible from invisibility no longer exists or an error exists within its model, judging by the SetVisible classes.

tl;dr, your project is missing an object. A reference to it has not been removed from a method (Oddly enough.) Normally you would have been prevented from saving or at least performing the action of deletion. I have rounded it down to either one of the playable objects or an item in your menu screen.
Do note that I have not been able to recreate the error and am merely reading off your report.

Thank you!
Edit: I keep getting the error, no matter what I fix. I guess I'll just delete it and start on something else. Thanks anyway.

I downloaded your file and ran it using my version of Alice 2.2. I am not getting the error you posted here. Try downloading the latest Alice 2.2 (Aug 5) version.
