ENT:StartTouch

[Mrdbuffalo]

So I am here again the [I]"Noob"[/I]. I am working on my addon and I want it so when my "cooking_pot" touches my cooker it will go onto of the cooker it will remove its self.

Part from my
[B]Init.lua[/B]

function ENT.StartTouch(ent)
	if ent:GetClass() == "cooking_pot" then
		ent:Remove()
		self.isPotted = true
		self:SetColor(Color(0,0,255))
	end
end

function ENT:StartTouch(ent)
	if ent:GetClass() == "dough" and self.isBaking == false and self.isPotted then
		ent:Remove()
		self.isBaking = true
		self.finishBakeTime = CurTime() + 5
	end
end

I dont know how to get around this as I know that they are conflicting with each other as If I take one away the other works.

Any help would be amazing[/B]

You can put both if statements in one StartTouch function.

Also, how about:

function ENT.StartTouch(ent)
	if ent:GetClass() == "cooking_pot" then
		ent:Remove()
		self.isPotted = true
		self:SetColor(Color(0,0,255))
	end
	if ent:GetClass() == "dough" and self.isBaking == false and self.isPotted then
		ent:Remove()
		self.isBaking = true
		self.finishBakeTime = CurTime() + 5
	end
end

literally removed just three lines.

Alternatively you can use [I]elseif[/I].

Thanks was being dumb before asking question and didn't fully understand StartTouch

[Gmod4phun]

Shouldnt it be ENT:StartTouch instead of ENT.StartTouch ?

I see

[QUOTE=Mrdbuffalo;51125863]You put the same thing
But the script works now[/QUOTE]

Not the same thing. Notice the ":" and the "."

yup thanks

: is for dynamic functions
. is for more static functions

Alternatively, you can't use the self variable in static functions.

Eh not really, the only thing ":" does is implicitly declare "self" argument. It's just a syntactic sugar.

These are identical:

function x.y(self)
end

function x:y()
end

function x:y()

To be exact, these* are identical

x = {}
x["face"] = "punch"

function x.y()
print(x["face"])
end

function x:y()
print(self["face"])
end

In this case, both x:y() and x.y() will print "Punch".
I'd say that [I]table.innertable.function()[/I] is much more object-like than table.inntertable:function(), ie.

local preFunc = function(...) local args = {...} print(args[2] or "No second argument") end

PreMadeTable.SubTable.function["TestValid2ndARG_v2"] = preFunc

I feel much safer doing this and then use a dot ^_^

Those are identical only if you're gonna call second function only as [I]x:y()[/I]. If you're gonna do this then it'll behave differently:

local x = {test="A"}

function x.a()
     print(x.test)
end

function x:b()
     print(self.test)
end

local y = {test="B"}
y.a = x.a
y.b = x.b

x.a()
x:b()

y.a()
y:b()
