Ok here is an issue I have encountered. I have a script that is running. In this script I call a c++ function. The C++ function gets called and is running fine. Then the c++ function decides to call a script function from the same script that called the c++ function. So the contexts are the same. So when the c++ function calls the script function vsInt32 iResult = m_pcScriptContext->Prepare (iFuncID); I get an iResult = -2 asCONTEXT_ACTIVE; why is this happening it seems like the context I am calling on is already active. Which makes sense since I first called the c++ code from angelscript and now in the c++ code I am calling back to the angelscript code? So it is not possible to do this? ie. script -> C++ -> script? Thanks for anyone that can help me. I am sure that there has to be a solution. Maybe create another context for the second anglescript call from c++? Thanks,

To do this you need to create a second context (as you suspected). Prepare it and then execute the new script function. When that call returns, the previous script context will again become the active context, and you'll be able to return to the original script function.

If the call to Prepare() on the already active context had worked, it would have destroyed the stack, thus crashing the script.
