Hello, I'm trying to set a global variable on a player, and then check if the player has it in another file.
( Setting this variable from a ULX command )
[CODE]local affected_plys = {}
for i=1, #target_plys do
local v = target_plys[ i ]
--[[ if not v:IsValid() then
return
end
]]
if not should_revoke then
v.vanish = true // This is the variable
else
v.vanish = false // This is the variable
end
table.insert( affected_plys, v )
end
[/CODE]
And here I try to check if it's set, however I get nothing:
[CODE]ply = LocalPlayer()
if ply.vanish == true then
// Stuff here
end[/CODE]
Am I doing something wrong? As I don't really see what's the mistake.
You are trying to access a serverside variable on the client, send the variable using net message, or take a look at [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Entity/SetNWBool"]SetNWBool()[/URL]
The variable on a player will stay in the realm they were set in. If you are setting it serverside and want to access it clientside, you'll have to network it.

ninja'd. I recommend against SetNWBool though.
I totally agree with you Bo, I highly discourage using Garry's NW library.
Ah okay, I had no idea that the variable would stay on the current realm.
I'll network it over then, thanks :v:
