SSE Getting magnitude of magic effect within magic effect script

[zorakramone3050]

EDIT: Solved this issue on my own.

 

This is probably a really basic issue. Script looks like this:

Scriptname vtes_meff_hunger_script extends activemagiceffect  

;Initialize hunger and hunger state
float hunger = Self.GetMagnitude()
int hstate = 0

Error message looks like this:

Starting 1 compile threads for 1 files...

I'm pretty sure that SKYSE is installed correctly (I see it in the system information when I load the game) and I'm not seeing an unknown function error. The line is practically copy pasted from the wiki.
