The message might be misleading, but it's caused by a syntax error.

Normally syntax errors get blamed on task 1, I have no idea why it says task 3. But here are the real issues:

  • the syntax for a direction is "to <side-or-corner>", so leave off the word "bottom"
  • the first stop does not need a distance or percentage, it is 0 by default
