Now you have a better idea of how to read the error.

You're trying to get "success" when if obj:refine(cid, item) returns true or false.

Oh ty its was so usefull to me, i fix a talkaction error looking at this

But not this script...

You're trying to get "success" when if obj:refine(cid, item) returns true or false.

Where? This script is to hard to me, i dont made it, i just tryng to use...

 

[Infernum]

Omni Cloud literally told you EXACTLY how to find your error, and I told you what was returning the error.
Learning things yourself is the best experience that way YOU understand it completely.

 

[Xikini]

I'll try to explain it 'noobish'.

local status = obj:refine(cid, item)
if status == "success" then

This part defines status as obj:refine(cid, item) .. which returns to the script a true or false response. (I'm assuming.)
Again assuming, true = 1, and false = 0.
When the next line asks if status is equal to the string value, "success", it throws an error, as the script is expecting to receive a boolean value (aka number), aka true/false, response.

The same as you, I have no idea how to fix the issue, I'm just assuming I know how the issue is occuring, and once you understand the issue, you can usually research and debug the issue from there.

Good luck?

the problem is:
i don't know when this error show
its happen 2 times
so i don't know how to test how to fix

its not happen again with no changes...

To see what is going on in the script we (or you do at least) need to know what value is being returned.

Most things in lua return a value, even variables, this is how we are able to compare or assign values to something else.

local status = obj:refine(cid, item)
if status == "success" then

obj:refine returns a value and stores it in status, that in-turn compares its return value with a string "success".
To determine what status holds, lets see the return value and its type, this is where print comes in.

print(status)

If we want to see the data-type the value it returns, we would use type.

print(type(status))

We can also combine the two, if you are printing a value it is always called after the value is assigned.

local status = obj:refine(cid, item)
print(status, type(status))

Let us know what you get, you will see something printed in the console window when this script is executed.
