NoMethodError for conditional? [RESOLVED!]

[Kain Nobel]

Upon writting my Order command, I keep getting an error on this line

def update_status
  #..Some code
  if @actor01 < @actor02
    #...Does something
  end
  #...More code
end

The error it pops is...

Script 'CMS::Scene_Menu' line 389: NoMethodError occured
undefined method '<' for#<Window_Base:0x29a12a8>

For one, its not supposed to be a method, its defined within a method... I don't know what this error is trying to tell me.

Any idea why it would pop such a weird error?

This is the actual portion of the script, if you need to look at it (search for '# KN: Error', its that line.)

It tells you either @actor01 or @actor02 contain a window not a number. I don't see you have @actor02 here. So it is possibly caused by other reason. Just check whether you have some code like this in the script: @actor02 = Window_Base.new

Okay, I found it... in the top of the script, I call dummy windows, @actor01, @actor02, @actor03, @actor04... that must've overwritten the @actor01 and @actor02 that was meant to be an 'actor' later on in the scene.

I simply changed the @actor01 and 02 for the 'window' variable to @w_actor01 and it fixed it!

Thanks!
