I had a play with this and got the same error. I think it is giving an error because it is calling the function before it has been defined. There may be a setting in the config that will ignore this error.
Or I may be wrong

Ok goto it working..... I just moved the function above the error line
RE: Old zxbasic game errors - boriel - 2025-11-08
It's weird, because this should be partially supported (it should for subs, for example).
Anyway, another fix is to use DECLARE FUNCTION... (with the function header).
Will check it anyway.
