Lua bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got number)

[darkmu]

I'm using the same script on windows (test server) and on my server (linux), but when I kill the dungeon monsters on the linux server, it keeps giving this error, does anyone know how to solve it?

I don't use/know TFS functions, but i can't see where is your "area".

for configs, area in pairs(config) do

You're passing the name configs to table.contains, when you named your table config.

 

[Sarah Wesker]

Please when defining variables that will only be used in the file, make it local

config = {
    [{'mutated rat'}] = {
        fromPositionArea = Position(1001, 780, 7), -- fromPosition
        toPositionArea = Position(1097, 871, 7), -- toPosition
    },
    [{'goblin', 'rat'}] = {
        fromPositionArea = Position(1001, 780, 7), -- fromPosition
        toPositionArea = Position(1097, 871, 7), -- toPosition
    },
}

change to:

local config = { -- here <<<< local :D
    [{'mutated rat'}] = {
        fromPositionArea = Position(1001, 780, 7), -- fromPosition
        toPositionArea = Position(1097, 871, 7), -- toPosition
    },
    [{'goblin', 'rat'}] = {
        fromPositionArea = Position(1001, 780, 7), -- fromPosition
        toPositionArea = Position(1097, 871, 7), -- toPosition
    },
}

Because apparently there is another global variable with the same name config that is overwriting your table in the file, so when trying to iterate over the config table, it does not seem to work because according to the key they are numbers, when really your table has keys of type table
