Ply:IsAdmin Problem

[knackrack]

Hello. I Am Coding My Gamemode And I Have Added The Following To The init.lua
Im Getting The Error: myfile.lua:1: attempt to index global 'ply' (a nil value)

Here Is my Code:

if ply:IsAdmin() or ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
   timer.Simple(0, function()
   for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
   SendChat(ply, Color( 0,  150, 255 ), "Hello "..ply:Nick().." you are a/an "..ply:GetUserGroup().." ")
    end
	function GM:PlayerConnect( name )
	print("Welcome Back Admin " .. name .. ", :D")
end
	
	function GM:PlayerAuthed( ply, steamID, uniqueID, ip )
	print(" "..ply:GetUserGroup().." " .. ply:Nick() .. ", has Authorized.")
	end
end)
    else
        SendChat(ply, Color( 255,  0, 255 ), "Don't forget to donate to the server!" )
    end

Could you post the whole function ??

[knackrack]

[QUOTE=R@Rdeathmatch;39494587]Could you post the whole function ??[/QUOTE]

Thats is all i have that on a file called admincc.lua :P and i have included that on my init.lua

[addemod]

- snip -

What I meant was put something around the first if.. it is just there outside a function..

or am I wrong?

[knackrack]

[QUOTE=addemod;39494701]Try surround it with a 'function (ply)'[/QUOTE]
I Have tryed that is still not working :(

Basically you have just the code from the function. Anyway try this.
[LUA]
function GM:PlayerInitialSpawn( ply )
if ply:IsAdmin() or ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
timer.Simple(0, function()
for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
SendChat(ply, Color( 0, 150, 255 ), "Hello "..ply:Nick().." you are a/an "..ply:GetUserGroup().." ")
end
function GM:PlayerConnect( name )
print("Welcome Back Admin " .. name .. ", :D")
end
function GM:PlayerAuthed( ply, steamID, uniqueID, ip )
print(" "..ply:GetUserGroup().." " .. ply:Nick() .. ", has Authorized.")
end
end
[/LUA]
Check the code again, I think you missed some end's

If you ever get an error and you want someone's help, the minimum we need is the line, but it is always more helpful to give the entire function or most of it

you need to define what 'ply' is in a hook

What does <eof> mean ??

[DrJenkins]

Knackrack I fixed it.

[editline]6th February 2013[/editline]

You didn't finish your timer.simple( function()

[knackrack]

[QUOTE=R@Rdeathmatch;39495575]What does <eof> mean ??[/QUOTE]

i Don't know i think is a end problem or something ... :(

[DrJenkins]

Again. I fixed it please try out my code

[Pandaman09]

[lua]
function GM:PlayerConnect( name )
print("Welcom back Admin ".. name ..", :D")
end
function GM:PlayerAuthed( ply, steamID, UniqueID, ip )
print(""..ply:GetUserGroup().." ".. ply:Nick() ..", has Authorized.")
end
function GM:PlayerInitialSpawn( ply )
if ply:IsAdmin() or ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
SendChat(ply, Color( 0, 150, 255), "Hello ".. ply:Nick() .." you are a/an".. ply:GetUserGroup() ..".")
end
end
[/lua]
Please for the love of god, learn to indent.
Also I don't think you can create functions inside other functions, so make them before you call them.

EDIT: I just read that... Why the F are you using a for loop, when the function calls 1 player?

[knackrack]

[QUOTE=DrJenkins;39495626]Again. I fixed it please try out my code[/QUOTE]

Yup i see my problem but im putting ")" in the end on the last line but i still have problem
You can Send me the code completed fixed ? Thanks man :D

[QUOTE=R@Rdeathmatch;39495575]What does <eof> mean ??[/QUOTE]

It means End of File

[Pandaman09]

I looked at his code wrong because of the way it was spaced out.

[QUOTE=knackrack;39495666]Yup i see my problem but im putting ")" in the end on the last line but i still have problem

So what was the problem ?

[DrJenkins]

If you're too fucking stupid to look at other posts where I post the code. Then don't ask for help.

Ok With your code my script is working without any errors :D
but is not working ingame i need to include that on serverside lua or clientside ?

Yes i have see your answer is the same with pandaman09 your code is working but i still don't know if i need to put it on serverside lua or clientside lua :(

[Pandaman09]

The code should be server sided only?
yeah they are all server only.

[knackrack]

Yeah Works Great Thanks To All You Help Me With My First Gamemode :DDD

[Ryll]

I love how he doesn't really understand how to make a game mode, but one of his top priorities was the donation thing

why do people like you not understand that [b]you have no place in programming, coding, scripting, or anything that requires the mental ability of anything above a toddler[/b]

Wtf man, what is your problem ??
Yeah his new to Lua and I don't think he diden't try to find the solution by himself, but maybe he couldn't find it. So if you can't find the solution you come on facepunch and ask for help.
So you don't have to be rude.
