Whats the problem with the script?
Do you get an error or it just wont work?

Also incase you don't know, this script sets the players vocation to their current vocation id + 4. So you have to have the second promotion's vocation id set to 4 above their current vocation.

Example:
Sorcerer vocation id is 1.
Master Sorcerer vocation id is 5.
so the 2nd promotion for a Sorcerer must be set to vocation id 9.

yeah i know. added the vocs id's but when i say hello he says if i want to buy the second promotion and when i say yes i get an error..
