Need help with some noob stuffs...
« on: March 05, 2013, 04:30:21 PM »
For some reason when a person leaves the game while holding the chat key they always seem to popup the same error that the entity returns null.
Any help? I tried ending the function if it returns null but it just breaks it.

Code: [Select]

tcolor = team.GetColor(self.ply:Team())
tcol          = Color( tcolor.r,tcolor.g,tcolor.b,100 )

if ( !IsValid( self.ply ) ) then return end
if  ( !self.ply:Alive() ) then
draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, Color( 0, 0, 0, 100 ) )
return
end

draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, tcol )

And I can never seem to fix the error when I am creating a HUD I try to draw the players health but when the player dies it just said clip1 return null value.

The code looks fine...
I don't know why that happens. How do you know for sure that this happens when someone is holding the chat key?

Valgoid, be a bit careful, you've necro'd some posts that really have no need to be necro'd.

Posting on a thread that hasn't been posted on for 30 days. Basically bringing it back to life.

Neku, 30 days isn't really that bad.
Especially in a (usually) slower forum like Ulysses).
We really don't mind if someone is bringing definitive new information that would be helpful to everyone.

But, this one was over a year.

30 is the usual limit I see on a bunch of other forums. I was unsure about this one.
