It means your using some variables twice in your script.

This is usually the cause of global and local data types conflicting. Meaning, you have something declared most likely in a compound function, expression or statement in which the compiler doesn't know what do read it as!

Example:

pawn Код:

public TestFunction()
{
    new test;
    if(Example)
    {
        new test;
        test = 1;
    }
}

Note the variable "test" to fix the error, take one of the variables out.

Also this can be a cause of this error.

PHP код:



new hello;
public Function()
{
   new hello;
   hello = 1;
   return 1;
}
