Expected member name, ';' at end of list, and require a specifier?

I have the following code: 

@implementation GameScene {

 -(id)init {
self = [super init]
if (self != nil) {

    BackgroundLayer *backgroundLayer = [BackgroundLayer node];
    [self addChild:backgroundLayer z:0];

    GameplayLayer *gameplayLayer = [GameplayLayer node];
    [self addChild:gameplayLayer z:5];
}
return self;
 }

 @end

Ive done it like this before, But ever since I updated xCode I have been recieving the following error messaged all pinned to the -(id) line.

Type name requires a specifier or qualifier

Expected member name or ';' after declaration specifiers

and

Expected ';' at end of declaration list

Im not sure what to do from here, cant seem to fix these!

It's simple enough. I solved this issue by placing appropriate "{" and "}" braces in code. Your code should be as 

    @implementation GameScene 

     -(id)init {
        self = [super init]
        if (self != nil) {

        BackgroundLayer *backgroundLayer = [BackgroundLayer node];
        [self addChild:backgroundLayer z:0];

        GameplayLayer *gameplayLayer = [GameplayLayer node];
        [self addChild:gameplayLayer z:5];
      }
        return self;
     }

   @end

You have an open { on your GameScene implementation line.

change your code to

@implementation GameScene

 -(id)init {
self = [super init];
if (self != nil) {

    BackgroundLayer *backgroundLayer = [BackgroundLayer node];
    [self addChild:backgroundLayer z:0];

    GameplayLayer *gameplayLayer = [GameplayLayer node];
    [self addChild:gameplayLayer z:5];
}
return self;
}

 @end

You shouldn't have an opening brace after @implementation unless you define extra variables in a block, like this:

@implementation GameScene {
    int _variable;
}
- (id)init {
    ...
}
...
@end

The class methods (init, etc) should not be enclosed in braces, so the fix to your compiler error is to simply remove the opening brace.
