So I can click around in my room just fine, but when I leave and try to return to this particular room and no other, this happens:

<description>You can see one wall of fume hoods and sinks, one section with completely sealed fume hoods with glove access, several refridgerated glass lockers, shelving units down the middle containing glass wear, electronic balances, incubators, more cold storage, measuring instruments, and pipettes. Shredded of gowns, gloves and goggles hang off hooks on the wall. It looks like someone took a very sharp implement to them. One of the fume hoods also seems quite damaged.</description>

My best guess (EDITED)
I loaded this into a new game. it will not load due to error(element not found: B1 Left Corridor)
You have
<exit alias="east" to="B1 Left Corridor">
<inherit name="westdirection" />
</exit>
should start exit name
<exit name="west" alias="west" to="B1 Left Corridor">
<inherit name="westdirection" />
</exit>
I assume you want to go west not east. Else change west to east:
<exit name="east" alias="east" to="B1 Left Corridor">
<inherit name="eastdirection" />
</exit>
Exit issue of course! For some reason the exit I had created was no longer there, but it wasn't saying there was nothing there. Thanks!
Okay, I have a smaller issue with my Know Geology script. I wanted to make it a question so people could spend some of their time looking around at the place. When I type Know Geology, I get the question but when I make a selection I get this answer:
Error running script: Error compiling expression 'Strange coordinates': Unknown object or variable 'Strange coordinates'
The script is something I used earlier (under Use rather than Know) and I had no problems. I checked to make sure it's the same set of words, but yeah, not fixing it.

Since the moon has no active tectonic plate motions, these can't have come from the moon. The gases present doesn't match Last Hope either.")
