You must be calling an Input function and using a variable called dt to calculate something but dt isn't in the function's input variables ( function myScript:update(functionVariable) ) or defined as a local variable within the function.

Make sure "dt" is defined as a variable before use; again either as a local or a functionVariable. ( function myScript:update(functionVariable) )

If you made a new function then make sure you're passing "dt" from the original function which calls it to your new function (by making it a functionVariable in your new function and calling the new function with dt ( myScript:newfunction(dt); ).
