Welcome script?

[Psycho_Chihuahua]

well i've checked InfoBot on both k0 Lua 5.02 and k1 Lua 5.1 and it works fine for me.

And Helios as i have stated on the other forum - please give me better details of information on how you got that error - cause i aint gettin no errors

and by the way if you get:

attempt to index global 'PXU' (a nil value)

that means you havent got the version 1.6d as i have put everything together in that one - so you shouldnt get that error as PxUtilities is shipped in the package.

InfoBot 1.6d
unpack as is into ptokax root folder then everything is where its supposed to be - libs in root and script in scripts

Syntax F:\recupero\Ptokax\Ptokax\scripts\welcome.lua:53: attempt to concatenate global 'doGetProfile' (a nil value)
lol any1 fix it

This stems from bad technique in creating the variable.
doGetProfile =  GetProfileName(user.iProfile)

Will fail on an unregistered user, where  GetProfileName(user.iProfile) will return nil
When it's possible for such a call to return nil [false] it's best to use the or statement
There is also no reason for a global variable here.

so, you might try...

local doGetProfile =  GetProfileName(user.iProfile) or "Unregistered User"

to avoid that error.

i use ptokax 3.0.4.0k with lua 5.1

It is important to post the full Px version, 0.3.4.0k0 = LUA 5.02, or 0.3.4.0k1 = LUA 5.1 for example.
I do know that that has been addressed [and hopefully fixed by Psycho Chihuahua] in a recent update.
It's a matter of how libs are handled differently in the two LUA versions.
One last thing, you should post this in the InfoBot thread. No here, as it has no bearing.

i have installed this


changed old string with ---------------------> local doGetProfile =  GetProfileName(user.iProfile) or "Unregistered User"

PtokaX doesn't seem to like doGetProfile - i got the same Error there. But its easy to fix - just use a different Var

As you see all i did was change 'doGetProfile' to 'Prof' and voila it worked.

[Madman]

Px has no problem with doGetProfile...
How ever.. is has a prob with line 36... witch is the reason you get a nil error
remove it and it's solved aswell...

[Helios]

tnx 1000 Psycho_Chihuahua it work fine now

[08:17] Syntax F:\recupero\Ptokax\Ptokax\scripts\welcome.lua:42: attempt to call global 'GetEnable' (a nil value)

lol

[Psycho_Chihuahua]

And how do you get that????


There is no GetEnable Call in welcome.lua

[Helios]

i have tested it for 3 days no error
now get this error don't understand why

[Psycho_Chihuahua]

it is still not possible to get a GetEnable Error unless you added something and doing so - borked it.

if no GetEnable in Script = impossible to get such an Error
