Lua CreatureScript Interface "deathList" problem.

[Vikarious]

I'm using The Forgotten Server - Version 0.2.13 (Mystic Spirit). and I set up to test a script of quest. It's a quest of the type you kill X creature and return for reward.

NPC loads fine, everything seems to load fine.

When I get quest, and I start to kill the creature I see this error in concole for each creature I kill:

[14/08/2012 13:28:49] Lua Script Error: [CreatureScript Interface]
[14/08/2012 13:28:49] data/creaturescripts/scripts/task/rotworm task.luanDeath
[14/08/2012 13:28:50] data/creaturescripts/scripts/task/rotworm task.lua:4: attempt to index local 'deathList' (a number value)

[14/08/2012 13:28:50] data/creaturescripts/scripts/task/rotworm task.lua:4: in function <data/creaturescripts/scripts/task/rotworm task.lua:3>

Script follows:

local storage = 5555

function onDeath(cid, corpse, deathList)
    local killer = deathList[1]
    local monster = getCreatureName(cid)
    local rotworm = getPlayerStorageValue(killer, storage)
    if ((monster:lower() == 'rotworm') and not isInArray({-1, 10}, rotworm)) then
        doPlayerSendTextMessage(killer, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_BLUE, 'You need to kill '.. 10 - rotworm ..' rotworm.')
        setPlayerStorageValue(killer, storage, rotworm + 1)
    elseif rotworm == 10 then
        doPlayerSendTextMessage(killer, MESSAGE_STATUS_CONSOLE_BLUE, 'You have killed enough rotworm. Come back and talk to NPC for a possible reward.') 
    end
    return true
end

For test porpuses I give you the NPC script too:

local keywordHandler = KeywordHandler:new()
local npcHandler = NpcHandler:new(keywordHandler)
NpcSystem.parseParameters(npcHandler)
local talkState = {}

function onCreatureAppear(cid)                npcHandler:onCreatureAppear(cid)            end
function onCreatureDisappear(cid)            npcHandler:onCreatureDisappear(cid)            end
function onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)            npcHandler:onCreatureSay(cid, type, msg)        end
function onThink()                    npcHandler:onThink()                    end

function creatureSayCallback(cid, type, msg)
    if(not npcHandler:isFocused(cid)) then
        return false
    end

    local talkUser = NPCHANDLER_CONVBEHAVIOR == CONVERSATION_DEFAULT and 0 or cid
    local quest = 5555
    
    if msgcontains(msg, 'task') or msgcontains(msg, 'mission') or msgcontains(msg, 'quest') then
		if (getPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest) == -1) then
             selfSay("Heh... If I want you to do a task? Sure... Can you kill 10 rotmwors for me?{Yes}? {No}?", cid)
             talkState[talkUser] = 2
	         elseif (getPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest) == 11) then 
		     selfSay("Hm... You already helped me a lot, do not need more of you here, thanks!", cid)
             talkState[talkUser] = 0
			 elseif (msgcontains(msg, 'task') or msgcontains(msg, 'mission') or msgcontains(msg, 'quest')) then
			if (getPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest) < 10) then
                selfSay("Hm... You're already helping me. How many have you killed?", cid)
                talkState[talkUser]= 0
			 elseif (msgcontains(msg, 'task') or msgcontains(msg, 'mission')  or msgcontains(msg, 'quest')) then
		    if (getPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest) == 10) then
		      selfSay("I see you have completed your task!", cid)
		       selfSay("You've done well! As a small reward I give you this steel boots!", cid)
               doPlayerAddExp(cid, 5000)
               doSendAnimatedText(getPlayerPosition(cid), "5000", TEXTCOLOR_WHITE_EXP)
               doPlayerAddItem(cid, 2645, 1)
               setPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest, 11) -- Finished
            end
			end
		end
	elseif (msgcontains(msg, 'yes')) then
					selfSay("Okay, good hunt! When you finish come to me and say {complete}. {Bye} for now.", cid)
					setPlayerStorageValue(cid, quest, 1)
					talkState[talkUser]= 0
			
	elseif (msgcontains(msg, 'no')) and (talkState[talkUser] == 2) then
					selfSay("No problem then!", cid)
					talkState[talkUser]= 0
			
	 
        end
		
	end



npcHandler:setCallback(CALLBACK_MESSAGE_DEFAULT, creatureSayCallback)
npcHandler:addModule(FocusModule:new())

I think that if I could change the function "onDeath" or something like this, it would work. But I really don't know how could I replace or fix it.

Thanks in advance!!

It means you cannot index it like array, and thats what you did XD
The same thing will happen if you do
local a = 1
a[1] = 3
^^
