Error : VE263: Unable to parse animation event file: doors/right-door_scene.evt

I'm having some weird error when trying to add sound effects to the doors on my train and it won't let me submit the edits:

- <kuid:140046:102705> : VE263: Unable to parse animation event file: doors/right-door_scene.evt
; <kuid:140046:102705> : VE264: Parsed animation event file doors/right-door_scene.evt with 7 events.

- <kuid:140046:102705> : VE263: Unable to parse animation event file: doors/left-door_scene.evt
; <kuid:140046:102705> : VE264: Parsed animation event file doors/left-door_scene.evt with 7 events.

Okay, it looks like something failed, but immediately succeeded, so why didn't the submission work?:confused:


Here's what the .evt files look like:




002 Sound_Event \chime
080 Sound_Event \open
090 Sound_Event open
240 Sound_Event \close
250 Sound_Event /announcement
260 Sound_Event announcement
360 Sound_Event \alarm
528 Sound Event close-announcement
536 Sound_Event \close-announcement

Here's what the config file looks like:

soundscript
{
open
{
trigger "open"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "open.wav"
}
}

close
{
trigger "close"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "close.wav"
}
}
announcement
{
trigger "announcement"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "announcement.wav"
}
}

close-announcement
{
trigger "close-announcement"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "close-announcement.wav"
}
}
alarm
{
trigger "alarm"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "alarm.wav"
}
}

chime
{
trigger "chime"
nostartdelay 1
repeat-delay 2,2
distance 100

sound
{
0 "chime.wav"
}
}
}

What's causing this error?
 
Update, it's still not submitting, but I noticed when trying to narrow down the culprit that it has something to do with the last two lines of text. I don't know why, though I tried adding one line of text at a time and only at the last two lines does it fail to submit. Is there a limit of sounds that can be triggered by an animation? A limit of frames that can trigger a sound? A limit of frames allowed in a door animation. (For clarification, the doors are supposed to play an opening sound, followed by an announcement of the train's destination, then before closing, a "caution, the doors are about to close" announcement, then a closing alarm, a closing sound and a chime to let the driver know it's okay to proceed.

Here's what I tried so far:
002 Sound_Event \chime changed to 002 Sound_Event /chime (slash was facing the wrong way)

tried removing the hyphens

Tried shortening their names to "closea"

- <kuid:140046:102705> : VE263: Unable to parse animation event file: doors/left-door_scene.evt
; <kuid:140046:102705> : VE264: Parsed animation event file doors/left-door_scene.evt with 7 events.

Tried assigning to a different frame

- <kuid:140046:102705> : VE263: Unable to parse animation event file: doors/left-door_scene.evt
; <kuid:140046:102705> : VE264: Parsed animation event file doors/left-door_scene.evt with 7 events.

Nevermind. Found the problem:

528 Sound Event close-announcement

Forgot an underscore between Sound and Event

Sound_Event
