Checking to see what a players team is when they talk to an NPC

[LucasStone]

So i'm new to Lua and I came across this error when trying to do a simple check on a players team when they speak with an NPC. Essentially what happens is that when a non police officer talks to the NPC i'm trying to make it alert the SWAT & Police that someone is in the PD. This is probably a really dumb error I have made but I would appreciate any feedback.

Here is the code...

function NPC.OnTalk ( )
	if (LocalPlayer():GetNWInt("hand_cuffs") == true) then LEAVE_DIALOG() end

	if (LocalPlayer():IsGovernmentOfficial()) then
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:SetDialog("Hello what can I do for you?")
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Can you help me with this criminal?", NPC.GetPlayers)
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Could you please help me release a prisoner?", NPC.Release)
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Could you please open the gate(s) for me?", NPC.DoDoors_OPEN)
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Could you please close the gate(s) for me?", NPC.DoDoors_CLOSE)

		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Nevermind...", LEAVE_DIALOG)
	else
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:SetDialog("I don't think you should be here! I'm calling for backup!")
		GAMEMODE.DialogPanel:AddDialog("Err, Err, FUCK YOU!!!", LEAVE_DIALOG)
		for k, v in pairs( player.GetAll() ) do
			if v:Team == TEAM_POLICE || TEAM_SWAT then
				v:Notify("Someone is trespassing in the PD!")
			end
		end
	end

The error i'm getting...

[ERROR] gamemodes/secret/gamemode/npcs/police_jail.lua:37: function arguments expected near '=='
  1. unknown - gamemodes/secret/gamemode/npcs/police_jail.lua:0

(I think) the error you're getting is at

if v:Team == TEAM_POLICE || TEAM_SWAT then

v:Team is a function, so you need to call it as v:Team()
Also, you want to check each condition, so you need to do

if v:Team() == TEAM_POLICE ||  v:Team() == TEAM_SWAT then
