Strange script error message that I dont understand

[CrankyKidneys]

I am in need of some advice. I am trying to add a Brawl out of a dialogue option. I've been following the Tutorial: Dialogue Speech Checks on the wiki cause I couldnt find anything related specifically to Brawls. I copied a script from one of the other brawl quests. Where I am stuck is trying to set the properties of the script. I cant get the FavorDialogueScript property to add. -I start with adding a script Akspeaker.SetRelationshipRank(Game.GetPlayer(), -1) pFDS.Brawl(akSpeaker) -then I try to add the propety by typing in the box 'FavorDialogueScript' and titling it pFDS, but it never goes through and I am unsure why? I am getting this error message.

I have no idea why its referencing CompanionsHousekeepingScript.psc but the issue lies somewhere there. Any advice would be appreciated.

When you get the unkown type error, it means the compiler can't find that script in the source folder. Make sure the dialoguefollowerscript.psc file is in the correct source folder. 

By default for LE it's Data/Scripts/Source 

By default for SE it's Data/Source/Scripts 

Also if you're new to scripting you may not have unzipped the Scripts.Zip file yet which can be found in the Data folder.

Thank you for the reply, Sorry for me not getting back to you fast. I only work on this on the weekends. 

I have checked and the dialoguefollowerscript.psc is missing from my scripts folder. Is there anywhere to download a fresh scripts folder that you know of? I might just need to do a fresh install, but I have so many mods and really dont want to have to re-download everything just for one small file if I can find it elsewhere.

Hey I got it all figured out. I was in fact missing dialoguefollowerscript.psc from the Data/Source/Scripts folder. I got a new one from this link and just copy pasted it in.

Thank you dylbill for pointing me in the right direction. I'm very grateful.

Be careful with that script.

Actually, the script in question should be in the Scripts.zip inside your Data folder.    

However, if you use Unofficial SSE Patch,  you should use .bsa extractor   to get that script from   'Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch.bsa' in your Data directory.

scorrp10 I haven't been having any problems but I thought i would follow your advice just in case. I extracted the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch.bsa and found the script but it is a .pex file instead of a .psc file. Do you know if that is what its supposed to be or if I may have used the tool wrong? Not urgent as I am not encountering any problems but just curious. 

[scorrp10]

.pex is a compiled script file.    USSEP bsa should have the .psc file as well.   In source/scripts.

OK yup just found it! I just pasted it into my Data/Source/Scripts and replace the one I found off of that github link. Thanks for the tip. I am new and I want to learn best practice to avoid headaches.
