[Night_Runner]

The problem is that $game_variables isn't yet defined ....
Somewhere in Scene_Title it defines $game_variables = Game_Variables.new, but it reaches this bit of code before it reaches Scene_Title ....

Sorry, ummmmmmmmm, try something like this, it's mostly the same, but kinda not....

[Show/Hide] some code....

  #-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # > Changelog:
  #   V.1.0 (25-04-09) = Initial release
  #   V.1.1 (29-04-09) = Added a function to restore HP/MP to max when level up
  #   V.1.1a (30-04-09) = Fixed a small bug wich I forgot to write something in
  #                                    the script that can makes the game crashes.....
  #-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # >  Information:
  # This script will modify an actor's stats gain on level up by a random number
  # between maximum and minimum amount that you can specify for each actors.
  # For example, you set an actor's minimum AGI stat to 1 and maximum AGI stat to 5,
  # when that actor gains a level, he/she'll gains AGI by random number between 1 to 5!
  # I suggest you set actor's stats in database to the same from his/her starting level
  # to 99, so if in database your actor's HP at starting level is 100, from that level
  # to 99 the HP should not be changed! This's just a suggestion anyway....

It doesn't error out, but then again, I have no idea what the script actually does or how it works (sorry)

If it doesn't work, it will need a more manual approach, so I'll need to know specifically which stats follow a variable, and it will be applied to every actor...

The problem is that $game_variables isn't yet defined ....
