'Error in the evaluation of expression...' with emptyattributes

[Mike Pokraka]

Hi Jocelyn,
Interesting point, yes that would give the error. They do exist though,
it's a dynamic parallel subflow based on the object and the one whose
attribute is missing is the one that fails.

Incidentally, I've seen some curious behaviour debugging this one:
Sometimes a synamic parallel subflow going into error automatically puts
all other flows into error at the very top, other times not (the other
subflows are 'started' and agents of the other subflows get their items).

Thanks for the input,
Cheers
Mike
