So umm, did you get anything else in the error message, because that's really kind of vague... What happens if you turn it into a talkaction? (Just for testing purposes)

Thankss that solved the Problem but THere is another one .. :/

Now when the event has started and the zombies spawn, when they try to hit the Player then i get this error in the Console:

PHP:

Examine the first error:
learn to decyhper what the messages are telling you
data/lib/032-position.lua:2:
Click to expand...
this means /this/file.ext : line_number :

attempt to index global 'position' (a nil value)
Click to expand...
this means something is trying to access a subvalue of a table that doesn't exist, a table called position

in function 'isInArea'
Click to expand...
this is the calling function that is raising the error.


Code: 
function isInRange([COLOR=#0000ff]pos[/COLOR], fromPosition, toPosition)
         return ([COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].x >= fromPosition.x and [COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].y >= fromPosition.y and [COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].z >= fromPosition.z and [COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].x <= toPosition.x and [COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].y <= toPosition.y and [COLOR=#ff0000][B]position[/B][/COLOR].z <= toPosition.z)
end

The problem has been made obvious, neh? So has the solution.

Mario died because he only ate mush. Add the room, and he yet may live.


I AM A
function
​
I AM CALLED
isInRange
​
MY PARAMETERS ARE
(pos, fromPosition, toPosition)
​
I GIVE FEEDBACK
return
​
IF... AHH!! WHAT THE FUCK is position!!!
if (position.x
​
ITS NOT ONE OF MY PARAMETERS!!!
MY PARAMETERS ARE pos, fromPosition, toPosition
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS position SHIT IS!
ABORT ABORT!!
NOT EVEN EVALUATED:
>= fromPosition.x and position.y >= fromPosition.y and position.z >= fromPosition.z and position.x <= toPosition.x and position.y <= toPosition.y and position.z <= toPosition.z)
​
NEVER GONNA MAKE IT THIS FAR:
end

Get it yet? get rid of the blue.... perhaps make it red?

Read your first error message again... READ IT! Don't just always come here and regurgitate it and expect someone else to fix it for you.

I'll make it fucking funny, just so you may get it
