E0114 error

continue is not the last statement of its block

area: parsing (x01xx)
fails the build: yes

continue is followed by more statements in its block. Like break and return, it must be the last statement of its block, because the code after it could never run. Write do continue end to continue from the middle of a block, or put it inside an if.

Example

× failswowlua

for i = 1, 3 do    continue    print(i)end

✓ compileswowlua

for i = 1, 3 do    if i == 2 then continue end    print(i)end

The compiler reports it like this:

error[E0114]: `continue` must be the last statement of its block; write `do continue end`
