Convert p:SendLua to net

[1-Bit]

Hi, I am trying to convert these lines to net. Any help please?

Client:

function jobqueue:OpenQueueWindow(t)

blah blah

end

Server

p:SendLua("jobqueue:OpenQueueWindow("..t..")")

Thanks

I'm not sure what "t" is so you made need to change the net.Write* and net.Read* parts.

serverside

util.AddNetworkString("openWindowJobs");

//inside your function; would replace your SendLua() part
net.Start("openWindowJobs");
	net.WriteString(t);
net.Send(p);

clientside

net.Receive("openWindowJobs", function() 
	local t = net.ReadString();

	jobqueue:OpenQueueWindow(t);
end)

yeah its a string... nice guess!

Oops clientside was wrong - updated.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm It may not be a string. Heres wat i has.

[ERROR] addons/queue/lua/darkrp_modules/queue/cl_init.lua:11: attempt to index a nil value

Client:

jobqueue={}


net.Receive("openQueueMenu", function() 
	local t = net.ReadString();

	jobqueue:OpenQueueWindow(t);
	end)

    function jobqueue:OpenQueueWindow(t)
	local teamName=RPExtraTeams[t].name
	local frame=vgui.Create("DFrame")
	frame:SetSize(300,110)
	frame:SetPos(ScrW()/2-frame:GetWide()/2,ScrH()/2-frame:GetTall()/2)
	frame:SetVisible(true)
	frame:SetTitle("QUEUE")
	frame:SetDraggable(false)
	frame:MakePopup()
	frame:DoModal(true)

server:

jobqueue={}
util.AddNetworkString("AddToQueue")
util.AddNetworkString("RemoveFromQueue")
util.AddNetworkString("BecomeJob")
util.AddNetworkString("openQueueMenu");
local function hookedChangeTeam(p,t,f)
	
	if f then return true end
	local TEAM = RPExtraTeams[t]
	if not TEAM then return false end
	
	local max = TEAM.max
	if (max ~= 0 and -- No limit
	(max >= 1 and team.NumPlayers(t) >= max or -- absolute maximum
	max < 1 and (team.NumPlayers(t) + 1) / #player.GetAll() > max) and p:Team()~=t) or jobqueue.status[t]>1 then -- fractional limit (in percentages
		if jobqueue.status[t]<2 or (jobqueue.status[t]>1 and jobqueue.queue[t][1]~=p) then
    net.Start("openQueueMenu");
	net.WriteString(t);
    net.Send(p);
			return false
		end
	end
	
	return true
end

jobqueue.queue={}
jobqueue.status={}

Looks like t is probably a number, just do like tonumber(t) on the client or something

[1-Bit]

i used WriteInt and ReadInt, still broken.

[crazyscouter]

Can you print exactly what t is?

[1-Bit]

yeah i made it print as a string, it said: 4. But when i used ReadInt and WriteInt it didnt work?
