Okay, i have followed a tutorial on how to set an open button for a Derma tutorial, but whenever i press F1 ( button I set to make Derma open ) I get this:
[code]
:1: attempt to call global 'CharacterCreation' (a nil value)
[/code]
Now, this is my Clientside Code ( Just the actual DFrame, you guys aint getting your hands on my code :argh: )
[lua]local CharacterCreation = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
CharacterCreation:SetSize( 600, 600 )
CharacterCreation:Center()
CharacterCreation:SetTitle( "Garry Company Character Creation" )
CharacterCreation:SetVisible( true )
CharacterCreation:SetDraggable( false )
CharacterCreation:ShowCloseButton( true )
CharacterCreation:MakePopup()[/lua]
And this is my Serverside Code for the setting F1 for open button:
[lua]function GM:ShowHelp(ply)
ply:SendLua("CharacterCreation()")
end[/lua]
What is wrong?
Theres probably more errors or something else
are you sure you made that function?
[lua]function CharacterCreation()
local CharacterCreation = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
CharacterCreation:SetSize( 600, 600 )
CharacterCreation:Center()
CharacterCreation:SetTitle( "Garry Company Character Creation" )
CharacterCreation:SetVisible( true )
CharacterCreation:SetDraggable( false )
CharacterCreation:ShowCloseButton( true )
CharacterCreation:MakePopup()
end[/lua]
You probbably have to show more code...
:/
All together, the clientside Derma code is this:
[lua]local CharacterCreation = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
CharacterCreation:SetSize( 600, 600 )
CharacterCreation:Center()
CharacterCreation:SetTitle( "Garry Company Character Creation" )
CharacterCreation:SetVisible( true )
CharacterCreation:SetDraggable( false )
CharacterCreation:ShowCloseButton( true )
CharacterCreation:MakePopup()
local CharacterName = vgui.Create( "DTextEntry", CharacterCreation )
CharacterName:SetPos( 20, 75 )
CharacterName:SetSize( 100, 25 )
CharacterName:SetFont( "ConsoleText" )
CharacterName:SetEnterAllowed( true )
CharacterName.OnEnter( function( ply )
ply:SetName( "" ..CharacterName:GetValue() )
end )
local Title1 = "Character Name"
surface.SetFont( "Trebuchet20" )
surface.SetTextColor( 255, 255, 255, 255 )
surface.SetTextPos( 20, 50 )
surface.DrawText( Title1 )
local CloseButton = vgui.Create( "DSysButton", CharacterCreation )
CloseButton:SetPos( 100, 100 )
CloseButton:SetSize( 150, 25 )
CloseButton:SetType( "close" )
CloseButton.DoClick = function()
CharacterCreation:SetVisible( false )
end
[/lua]
( Yeah I lied, it's not awesome, but meh )
You need to put that code in a function and call that. The function needs to be global if you are going to use SendLua.
