What is line 270 in your code?

[Schiaffino]

Hello Mr.President , sorry for the delay :/

Code: Lua

1. 263     local x12 = ((ScrW() *0.85902777)) -- Primer Palo Blanco ( Izquierda - Derecha )
2. 264     local y12 = ((ScrH() * 0.04444444))      -- Segundo Palo Blanco ( Izquierda - Derecha )  
3. 265    
4. 266             local ply = LocalPlayer()
5. 267     surface.SetTextColor (255,255,255,200)
6. 268     surface.SetTextPos(x12,y12)
7. 269     surface.SetFont("font")
8. 270     surface.DrawText("Level: "..ply.RP_SQL["GeneralLvl"], Color(255,0,0,255))
9.  

works in singleplayer but in multiplayer breaks :S i really don't know why. u.u

[MrPresident]

2 things


ply.RP_SQL = {}

and

RP_SQL = {}

are not the same thing. So if you set RP_SQL = {} in your shared.lua you will not be able to call   ply.RP_SQL = {}

Show me in your code where you set the value for ply.RP_SQL["GeneralLvl"]

i send you via PM my code

sorry hehe , its really important for me ... and i trust you 200%

[Schiaffino]

a friend told me to use usermessages.
( but i don't know how usermessages work )

He gave me 2 examples:

Clark: usermessages to send the data
Clark: and the server querys for the data
Clark: http://garryforum.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/gForum/lua/autorun/server/sv_meta.lua
Clark: http://garryforum.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/gForum/lua/autorun/client/cl_init.lua
Clark:

Code: Lua

1. usermessage.Hook("cl_setinfo", function( um )
2. umsg.Start("cl_setinfo", self)
3. umsg.String(Args[1][2] ..";" .. group ..";" .. Args[1][4])
4. umsg.End()
5.  

Clark: 1st one client
Clark: 2nd server
Clark: server sending info to client
Clark: client getting info

Thanks Mr.President , Thanks UlyssesMod Team

i fix the error with:

Adding this lua lines in all the areas that appear RP_SQL and some skill

   local ply = LocalPlayer()
   
   if !ply:Alive() then return end
   if(ply:GetActiveWeapon() == "Camera") then return end
   if(ply.RP_SQL == nil) then return end
   if not force and not self:IsVisible() then return end

example the scoreboard:

      if(ply.RP_SQL["GeneralLvl"] != nil) then
   self.lblLevel:SetText(self.Player.RP_SQL["GeneralLvl"])
   end

the problem ?

there's just 1 way to see this ... and its updating the GeneralLvl that's mean you need to level up to see the GeneralLvl :S any idea of how i can edit this code to get the GeneraLvl without leveling up ?

thanks !
