I'm very new to this lua coding and I'm reading that theres an error in an addon i have for my server this is the error

[ERROR] addons/lightsaber/lua/weapons/lightsaber/shared.lua:144: attempt to index local 'self' (a nil value)
  1. unknown - addons/lightsaber/lua/weapons/lightsaber/shared.lua:144

Timer Failed! [Simple][@addons/lightsaber/lua/weapons/lightsaber/shared.lua (line 140)]

this is the shared.lua file

/*---------------------------------------------------------
		SecondaryAttack
---------------------------------------------------------*/
SWEP.InAirDmg = 0
function SWEP:SecondaryAttack()
         if SERVER then self.Owner:EmitSound(Sound("ls/lightsaber_swing"..tostring(math.random(2,3))..".wav")) end
         if SERVER then self.Owner:EmitSound(Sound("player/suit_sprint.wav")) end
         
         self.Weapon:SetNextSecondaryFire(CurTime() + 100)
         self.Weapon:SetNextPrimaryFire(CurTime() + 100)

         self.PrevHP = self.Owner:Health()
         
         if SERVER then self.Owner:SetVelocity(self.Owner:GetForward() * 400 + Vector(0,0,400)) end
         
         timer.Simple(0.2,self.SecondaryAttackDelay,self)
end

function SWEP:SecondaryAttackDelay()
         self.InAirDmg = 1
         self.JumpRefire = true
end

Change this

timer.Simple(0.2,self.SecondaryAttackDelay,self)

to

 timer.Simple(0.2, function() if self and IsValid(self) then self:SecondaryAttackDelay() end end)

Everytime you use timer in swep/entity code, you need to check if entity is still valid.

Thanks so much dude! :D But is there a way to be able to use the secondary attack again while in mid air?
