A little help with Utime? :)

[morten7000]

Hi Ulysses

I'm been seeking help with some Utime and I have been advised to go to your forums

Well this is actually a remake on my post on facepunch
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm having some problems with Utime to ULX because:

I wanted a autopromotion addon which... auto promote... well I found one and its based on Utime.

So I downloaded those 2 and installed the addons and it seems that the autopromote works fine but I'm having some problems with the Utime. It Seems that the Utime sometimes kick random players first time they join and I'm getting these errors http://gyazo.com/ff6c3481c42e5a2a5bbf1e860c146973

I can see it first of all Is something wrong with line 310:

Info: I set the scales of the menus to be 0 so it "invisible" or "not there" because I don't want it on my screen . if you think it have something to do with the problem then just say it and i try to redo it

INFO!: My line 310 is line 29 here when you're looking at it

Any help or idea will be helpful and thanks for using you time on my silly little thread

Thanks

Edit: I can post the whole code if it will help you helping me

2Edit: this is my first Ulysses thread so plz spare with me

[Megiddo]

Don't worry about us tearing you to pieces, you created a very good thread. And thanks for using a Lua codeblock, even though it's not really explained anywhere.

I wasn't able to duplicate this error in my limited test (deleted gmod first), and the error doesn't make sense. The error is saying to call that function in a hook... but that's where it's being called from.

I don't really have any solution for you except to set the cvar "sv_kickerrornum" to 0 so that users aren't kicked when this error occurs.

[morten7000]

Thanks you 

Well I think I will do that as a temp. fix

[JamminR]

Morten, many months(years?) ago, I think UTime used to not use a hook.
Can you show us where you got your UTime/Apromote from?
There are several floating about, and you might have a bit older one.

[Megiddo]

JamminR, the line numbers match up, so I'm pretty sure he's using the latest. Worth verifying, though.

[morten7000]

I got my Utime from /index.php/topic,3039.0.html which I hope is the latest? .... I can also Edit my Thread so the whole code will be written insted of only that part? If that would help anything?

If its somehow not the latest version of Utime then plz direct me to the right one because I have not been able to find another one

Thanks for your help and time

[Megiddo]

Nope, that's the right one. I don't understand why it's giving you those errors. I tried to replicated it a few more times on my end with no luck.

[morten7000]

I have really no idea?

But thanks for your time. Its highly apreciated 

[Decicus]

I'm curious. What is this "CPanel"/"Control Panel" (it's basically the same thing) the error is "talking" about?

[morten7000]

I'm curious. What is this "CPanel"/"Control Panel" (it's basically the same thing) the error is "talking" about?

I'm Sorry. I cant answer you on your question

[Megiddo]

It's the control panel in the spawn menu.

[morten7000]

Hmm Maybe I Could upload my Utime some were?? because I have "edit" in it. I edited so the menues is invisible when you aim at someone. Maybe that could be it??

Tell me what you think

[Megiddo]

No, that wouldn't be the cause, I don't think.

[morten7000]
