It appears to be because you are attempting to stuff an integer into a variable that was just declared as a bool/boolean.

void loop() {

  if ( radio.available() )
  {
    // Read the data payload until we've received everything
    bool done = false;
    while (!done)
    {
      // Fetch the data payload
      done = radio.read(sensor,sizeof(sensor) );

Although I am not sure what error you are getting.

There are 2 versions of the RF24 library. One has the read function is declared to return a boolean and the other is declared void. In the library that you have the read function is declared void, but you are asking for a boolean return value.

 bool done = false;
    while (!done)
    {
      // Fetch the data payload
      done = radio.read(sensor,sizeof(sensor) );

You are not really using the done variable anyway, so, I think, that you can get rid of it.

Then there is this:

if (++1 * tol > dvert || dvert > tol) // check if the diffirence

What does ++1 do (besides cause an error)?
