As basic script as it gets

Hi Everyone, I have what is a basic question but after reading countless forums I’m not quite sure why I am still having this problem.

I am trying to do a basic setup in my robot using a 6 channel maestro which is connected to an arduino. But honestly the arduino is not even the problem at this time. I have 6 servos connected and I am just trying to create a single sequence that moves 2 servos a couple times. Then I want to output that sequence as a script, upload it to the maestro and run it. In the long run, I will be using restart script on the arduino to trigger this which is important to keep in mind.

In either case, I can get the sequence recorded and when I click play sequence on the sequence tab, it plays nicely, so all is good there. Then I click Copy all sequences to script and I can see it copies over. Now on the script tab, I click Apply settings and it uploads. I then try to test it, by clicking on Run script on the same script tab and it attempts to run through, but then fails with underflow/overflow error. I’ve read it has to do with extra data on the stack and all that, but if my sequence is fine, I’m not quite sure why the script doesnt just work?

I am only trying to get these 2 servos working as of now, but once this does work, I will expand to the others and so on. Ultimately I will have probably 6 sequences. I dont want the script to loop continuously since again I am using restart script in Arduino. I’m apparently missing something here, so any help is greatly appreciated.
Here is the super simple script thus far:

### Sequence subroutines: ###

# Sequence 0
sub Sequence_0
  500 0 0 6257 4646 0 0 frame_0..5 # Frame 0
  500 2960 frame_3 # Frame 1
  500 3992 frame_2 # Frame 2
  return

sub frame_0..5
  5 servo
  4 servo
  3 servo
  2 servo
  1 servo
  0 servo
  delay
  return

sub frame_3
  3 servo
  delay
  return

sub frame_2
  2 servo
  delay
  return
