Long story short: Something is stepping on a square that activates the script, but the thing stepping on it is not a player.

[03/07/2010 00:17:11] (luaGetPlayerItemCount) Player not found

Is obvious since it's not a player stepping on the tile. Can't get an itemcount for a monster or similar.

[03/07/2010 00:17:11] ...ovements/scripts/PitsOfInferno/MagicWallEntrance.lua:5: attempt to compare boolean with number

Is a cascade effect due to the above thing, since it's not a player who is stepping on the tile the script cannot check if "cid" has items, and thus returns "FALSE", and in LUA, FALSE and 0 (And TRUE and 1) is two different things, and thus; "Cannot compare boolean (TRUE/FALSE) with number (0/1)"


To fix it simply insert an additional if clause that checks if the "onstepping" creature is a player, and if not then don't execute the script.

should be something like...

if (!isPlayer(cid)) then
return TRUE
end

placed right below "function onStepIn(cid, item, pos)"
