Problem lua traceback

[corydurban]

I wanted it set to where if in prison(with storage 1339) it shows as a prisoner from hell
well it works the problem is if i'm looking at anything else other then another person it dosent work as in it won't allow me to look
this is my script

local storage = 1339
 
function onLook(cid, thing, position, lookDistance)
	if (isPlayer(thing.uid) ~= cid and getPlayerStorageValue(thing.uid, storage) > 0) then
		doPlayerSetSpecialDescription(thing.uid,'.\n'..(getPlayerSex(thing.uid) == 0 and 'She' or 'He')..' is a prisoner of hell')
	end
		if (isPlayer(thing.uid) == cid and getPlayerStorageValue(thing.uid, storage) > 0) then
			doPlayerSetSpecialDescription(thing.uid,'.\n is a prisoner of hell')
		end
return true
		end

and i get this error when i try to look at something that is not a person

 if (isPlayer(thing.uid) ~= cid and getPlayerStorageValue(thing.uid, storage) > 0) then

Ok here is your problem
isPlayer(thing.uid) returns boolean value (true or false) so it is never equal to creature id (so it will let script execute further)

you should remove ~= cid so it looks like

 if (isPlayer(thing.uid) and getPlayerStorageValue(thing.uid, storage) > 0) then
