BATCH - The Syntax Of The Command Is Incorrect

SEE THE FULL CODE HERE: http://pastebin.com/nu7u5XTC

I am using the 'choice' command to read the user's key so that the program knows what to do.

@ECHO OFF
setlocal EnableExtensions EnableDelayedExpansion
goto initialise

:initialise
cls
set /a x=6
set /a y=10
set /a oldx=%x%
set /a oldy=%y%
REM Place all of the grass blocks...
rem PaintScreen 2

:choicelistener

set /a oldx=%x%
set /a oldy=%y%

choice /c wasdWASDpqezxm /CS >NUL

if %ERRORLEVEL%==1 goto moveNorth

if %ERRORLEVEL%==2 (
REM Go west.
if %facing.x%.%facing.y%.occupied==true (
REM There is a block there.
goto choicelistener
) ELSE (
REM There was no block there.
set /a x=%x%-1
set prevmove=a
rem ChangeColor 2 0
goto checker
)

if %ERRORLEVEL% 3 (
REM Go south.
if %facing.x%.%facing.y%.occupied==true (
REM There is a block there.
goto choicelistener
) ELSE (
REM There was no block there.
set /a y=%y%+1
set prevmove=s
rem ChangeColor 2 0
goto checker
)

That is the part of code that breaks. I get the error "The syntax of the command is incorrect."

I have researched this for two hours, other people have has this problem, but none of their solutions have helped me. Any suggestions? Thanks.

goto checker

On your two verifications.
