how to deal with returns in LUA?

i tried to create some global functions like:

data/lib/usual.lua
Code: 
function getBaseVocation(cid)
    local voc = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    print("1 data/lib/common.lua voc: " .. voc)
    if voc == 1 or voc == 4 or voc == 5 or voc == 6 or voc == 7 then
        return 1
    elseif voc == 2 or voc == 8 or voc == 9 or voc == 10 then
        return 2
    elseif voc == 3 or voc == 11 or voc == 12 or voc == 13 or voc == 14 or voc == 15 or voc == 16 or voc == 17 then
        return 3
    elseif voc == 0 then
        return 0
    end
end

so in a action/quest.lua
Code: 
function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
            print("[action] voc -> " .. getPlayerVocation(cid))
            print("[action] baseVocation -> " .. getBaseVocation(cid))
end

The player vocation is 3, so it should return 3, but it is not returning 3, it is returning a strange number 268541257
(it is not priting print("1 data/lib/common.lua voc: " .. voc), is it right?)

On console it prints:
Code: 
[action] voc -> 3
[action] baseVocation -> 268541257

Why?

Your problem is weird, but Instead of your own script you can just use:
Lua: 
local baseVocation = getVocationInfo(getPlayerVocation(cid)).fromVocation
It will return whatever you set fromvoc attribute in vocations.xml

Have you tried just using the function as-is, all in 1 file?

Lua: 
local function getBaseVocation(cid)
    local voc = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    print("1 data/lib/common.lua voc: " .. voc)
    if isInArray({1, 4, 5, 6, 7}, voc) then
        return 1
    elseif isInArray({2, 8, 9, 10}, voc) then
        return 2
    elseif isInArray({3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17}, voc) then
        return 3
    elseif voc == 0 then
        return 0
    end
end

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
    local vocation = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    local base_vocation = getBaseVocation(cid)
    print("[action] voc -> " .. vocation)
    print("[action] baseVocation -> " .. base_vocation)
    return true
end

Assuming it works correctly, you might have another function somewhere, that is identically named, and is over-riding your newer function.

    local voc = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    print("2 ACTIONgetBaseVocation: " .. voc)
    if isInArray({1, 4, 5, 6, 7}, voc) then
        return 1
    elseif isInArray({2, 8, 9, 10}, voc) then
        return 2
    elseif isInArray({3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17}, voc) then
        return 3
    elseif voc == 0 then
        return 0
    end
end

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
    local vocation = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    local base_vocation = ACTIONgetBaseVocation(cid)
    print("[action] voc -> " .. vocation)
    print("[action] baseVocation -> " .. base_vocation)
    local fromlib = getBaseVocation(cid)
    print("[fromlib] fromlib -> " .. fromlib)
    return true
end

it prints:
Code: 
2 ACTIONgetBaseVocation: 3
[action] voc -> 3
[action] baseVocation -> 3
[fromlib] fromlib -> 268541252

i also used the same function on data/lib/common.lua
Code: 
local function getBaseVocation(cid)
    local voc = getPlayerVocation(cid)
    print("[data/lib/common.lua] voc: " .. voc)
    if isInArray({1, 4, 5, 6, 7}, voc) then
        return 1
    elseif isInArray({2, 8, 9, 10}, voc) then
        return 2
    elseif isInArray({3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17}, voc) then
        return 3
    elseif voc == 0 then
        return 0
    end
end

Sent you a pm with my discord info.

I feel like this won't be resolved easily, unless I can help you directly over a voicecall.

But still, this is my best guess
