net.Send: Entity is not a player!

i’m getting this in my console.log a lot. it would be nice if there were any indicators as to where this issue may be popping up like Lua errors do, but there’s nothing that i can find. is there a way to track down bad net.Sends?

You can override net.Send and check manually:


local fSend = net.Send

function net.Send(pPlayer, ...)
	if (pPlayer:IsPlayer()) then
		return fSend(pPlayer, ...)
	end

	ErrorNoHalt("net.Send with non-player entity!
")
	debug.Trace()
end

alright, thank you. i’ve already seemingly fixed what was throwing the error, but that’ll be useful in the future
