I'm puzzled about creating local variables. These 2 lines are what is causing the following 2 errors. It seems alright to me, I even searched google and sites like this and this is how people do it.

I just want to get a local variable so I can do stuffs with the floating text without it being a global variable.

Expected 'endif'
Code:
local texttag LastTextTag = CreateTextTag()

Expected a variable name
Code:
set LastTextTag = GetLastCreatedTextTag()

Full function
Code:
function Trig_Show_Gold_Gained_or_Lost_Copy_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    if ( Trig_Show_Gold_Gained_or_Lost_Copy_Func001C() ) then
        call CreateTextTagLocBJ( ( "+" + I2S(udg_tempInt) ), udg_tempPoint, 0, 10, 100, 100, 0.00, 0 )
    else
        if ( Trig_Show_Gold_Gained_or_Lost_Copy_Func001Func001C() ) then
            call CreateTextTagLocBJ( ( "+" + I2S(udg_tempInt) ), udg_tempPoint, 0, 10, 0.00, 100, 0.00, 0 )
        else
            if ( Trig_Show_Gold_Gained_or_Lost_Copy_Func001Func001Func001C() ) then
                call CreateTextTagLocBJ( ( "-" + I2S(udg_tempInt) ), udg_tempPoint, 0, 10, 100, 0.00, 0.00, 0 )
            else
            endif
        endif
    endif

    local texttag LastTextTag = CreateTextTag()
    set LastTextTag = GetLastCreatedTextTag()
endfunction

the 2nd line is unnessecary because CreateTextTag() will return the text tag and set it to the variable, no need to re-set -it to that text tag u just made
