Lua [TFS 1.2] Getting a summon userdata

[Shitobu]

I'm trying to get a summon userdata that I created by:

        local monster = Game.createMonster("Test", player:getPosition())
            monster:setMaster(player)
            player:getPosition():sendMagicEffect(CONST_ME_MAGIC_RED)

This code summons a monster named "Test".
Now, on another code, I'm trying to check if there is any summon summoned.
I tried:

    if player:getSummons() ~= nil then
         -- Summoned
    end

But somehow getSummons() return an userdata even when there is no summon summoned.
I think I could do an onThink checking the creature name, if it's Test, I find it's master and Set a storage on master.
But I need the summon userdata anyway to manipulate the summon on others codes. D:
Any ideas?

@if there was any way to get the summons table and by that I could play with each one would be great.. but I guess that I can't do that by that way?

From what I know getSummons return table with summons not userdata so if you don't have summons you still have table but without any element.
You can check if you have summons like this:

if #player:getSummons() > 0 then

Yeah you are right. I didn't know it returned a table and not a userdata.
I'm gonna try doing something with your info. Thanks a lot.

For anyone interested on how I did this:

            if #player:getSummons() > 0 then
                for k, v in pairs(player:getSummons()) do
                    v:setMaxHealth(player:getMaxHealth())
                    print(v:getMaxHealth())
                end
            end

Just showing how you can do it, on this code I basically set your summon max health equal to the player's max health and then print it's max health.
You can obviously do others things, but that's just the idea.

you can just iterate through summon list by index instead of using pairs

local summs = player:getSummons()
if #summs > 0 then
    for i = 1, #summs do
        summs[i]:setMaxHealth(player:getMaxHealth())
    end
end
