Transfer script from v4 to v5

Dear inquisit people,

I am having difficulty getting a script to run in v5.
The script runs absolutely fine in v4.
When trying to run it in v5 it crashes every time shortly after running.
The inquisit banner appears then it crashes every time.

Please can you advise what I need to change to make a script work in inquisit 5.
I was under the impression that v5 was "backward compatible"

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Best

Kevin

Could you please provide the script, and please include any and all external files the script requires to run (images, etc.). Please also provide a clear description of when / where exactly the script crashes.

Put the script and associated files in a ZIP archive, and use +Insert -> Add File to attach the archive to a post.

Please find the script attached. There are no other files required to run the script.
The script completely crashes inquisit after the inquisit splash screen but before any inquisit stimuli are shown.

Thank for providing the script, I've attached a fixed version below.
