--In this script is a series of defined variables --There are a lot of these variables and to keep things short and sweet I've omitted them from ------this question

Any help is much appreciated thanks guys

put a end on line 18 with a end) so it would be like

01local function Start()
02    local Dart = Instance.new('Part') do
03    -- Set up the dart part
04        Dart.Name = 'Dart'
05        Dart.FormFactor = Enum.FormFactor.Custom --NOTE: This must be done before                                                     changing Size
06        Dart.Size = dartsize
07        Dart.CanCollide = false
08    -- Add the mesh
09        local mesh = Instance.new('SpecialMesh', Dart)
10        mesh.MeshId = dartmesh
11            mesh.Scale = meshscale
12    -- Add a force   to counteract gravity
13        local bodyForce = Instance.new('BodyForce', Dart)
14        bodyForce.Name = 'Antigravity'
15        bodyForce.force = Vector3.new(0, Dart:GetMass() * Gravity, 0)
16        print("MeshCreated")
17    end
18end)
19local function Shoot(player,spawnPosition,tool)
20        -- Create a clone of dart and set its color
21        local dartClone = Dart:Clone()
22        --game.Debris:AddItem(dartClone, 30)
23        dartClone.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(33, 60, 122)
24        -- Position the dart clone and launch!
25        dartClone.CFrame = CFrame.new(spawnPosition.p, target) --NOTE: This must be done before assigning Parent
26        dartClone.Velocity = dartClone.CFrame.lookVector * dart_SPEED --NOTE: This should be done before assigning Parent

put an end at line 18

I could do that but it creates more errors in its place and the variables offset the code lines ExHydraboy 30 — 5y

Solution: I put end at line 18 and it solved the initial issue. Thanks @newton162 and @AlbertoMiAmigo2.

Note: The issue was actually some misplaced variables.
