"The index does not exist."
One of my maps includes a logic_script with a single function defined in it. A RunScriptCode calling the function brings up the error "The index [FUNCTION NAME] does not exist." Does anyone know what might cause this?
1. Your script is not in the Entity Scripts field in your logic_script
2. You are calling a function or value which is not stated inside the code
3. You have a syntax error inside your script. There may be an extra bracket, a random letter inserted somewhere that would break it etc.
Paste your code in a [code] tag and tell me what input you are giving it and I can give you an answer to why it isn't working.
- Code: Select all
function invertParent(){
// local ent = Entities.FindByTarget(null,"@counter_energyball_marker");
local ent = EntityGroup[0];
if(ent == null){
printl("ERROR: Countering Energy Ball:");
printl(" No Marker Found!");
return;
}
local theparent = ent.GetMoveParent();
if(theparent == null){
printl("ERROR: Countering Energy Ball:");
printl(" No Parent Found!");
return;
}
local angles = theparent.GetAngles();
angles *= -1;
angles = GetPlayer().GetAngles();
theparent.SetAngles(angles.x, angles.y, angles.z);
printl("COUNTER");
return;
}printl("SCRIPTFILE RUN");
printl(randomVar);
To redirect a combine ball.
Would be great if you gave me whole error that comes up in console. Not just a generalised one. The code looks syntax error free to me.
EDIT: the player can also be referenced to as player.
e.g. local ang = player.GetAngles()
Sorry.
"Entity [logic_script entity] encountered an error in RunScriptCode: line 1: the index invertParent() does not exist."
Then an empty call stack and empty list of variables, since none had been defined. Input is RunScriptCode invertParent(); (which works fine if I delete the script from the logic_script and use a logic_auto to RunScriptFile).
Get rid of the semicolon. I doubt this is the problem but it could be.
Also try running the script in game using the ent_fire -> logic_script -> RunScriptCode "invertParent()" command. If it still comes up with the error, try reducing your code to just the function name and a printl("Test") inside of it in order to see if it is the actual script that is not being liked / syntax error.
- Code: Select all
function invertParent() {
printl("test")
}
Both of those give the same error message. This seems really weird. The script is in an instance, does that matter?
It shouldn't. Is your script prefixed with an @?
Hrmm... Only thing I can think of: Check the Entity Scripts field in your logic_script to see if you are referencing the correct script.
