(help)Global Variable is nil in client side

How could I do that?
maybe with return currentTeam or how

mikou · 2019-04-22T19:35:43.543Z

Not tested

server 

TriggerClientEvent('getTeam:currentTeam',-1,currentTeam)

client 

currentTeam = {}

RegisterNetEvent('getTeam:currentTeam')
AddEventHandler('getTeam:currentTeam', function(currentTeam)

currentTeam = currentTeam

end
end)

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
   
    print(currentTeam)
end)

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:10:00.685Z

so almost working…
If I call the event, the print is sent with the right team

currentTeam = ''
-- Event to get variable currentTeam in client side
RegisterNetEvent('gw:currentTeamSend')
AddEventHandler('gw:currentTeamSend', function(currentTeam)
    currentTeam = currentTeam
    print("CurrentTeam:"..currentTeam)
end)

But if I try this its showing me nil

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    print(CurrentTeam)
end)

why is it showing nil if the global value is now in client side

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:20:12.188Z

I can’t test

server 
RegisterNetEvent('callTeam:currentTeam')
AddEventHandler('calTeam:currentTeam', function()
TriggerClientEvent('getTeam:currentTeam',-1,currentTeam)
end)


client 

currentTeam = {}

RegisterNetEvent('getTeam:currentTeam')
AddEventHandler('getTeam:currentTeam', function(currentTeam)

  currentTeam = currentTeam

end)



RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
   TriggerServerEvent('callTeam:currentTeam')
   Wait(100)--maybe useless just to let the time for value returning
   print(currentTeam)
end)

or try

" currentTeam = {}

instead of:

" currentTeam = ‘’ "

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:27:29.080Z

If I run this in client

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(1000)
    print('test'..currentTeam)
end)

the event currentTeamGet is beeing called but
currentTeam is showing nothing
in output I see only: test

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:28:53.963Z

or try

currentTeam = {}

instead of:

currentTeam = “”

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:30:55.170Z

thats very weird… now the print is completly not showing but the events is beeing called

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:32:54.425Z

with that?

(help)Global Variable is nil in client side Discussion

or try currentTeam = {} instead of: currentTeam = “”

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:33:20.602Z

yes :C

currentTeam = {}
-- Event to get variable currentTeam in client side
RegisterNetEvent('gw:currentTeamSend')
AddEventHandler('gw:currentTeamSend', function(currentTeam)
    currentTeam = currentTeam
    print("TEAM="..currentTeam)
end)

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(1000)
    print('test'..currentTeam)
    print("TEST")
end)

the print TEAM=…currentName is working but the command not

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:39:13.590Z

Ok so go back with :

currentTeam = “”

and try:

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    currentTeam = currentTeam
    if currentTeam ~= nil then --just for debug
     print('test'..currentTeam)
    print("TEST")
   else  print("Not found")
 end
  
end)

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:42:26.901Z

mikou:

if currentTeam ~= nil then --just for debug print(‘test’…currentTeam) print(“TEST”) else print(“Not found”) end

same thing, the print is now showing only test
so no currentTeam sadly

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:47:25.414Z

Bad debug lol

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    if currentTeam ~= ''  then --just for debug
     print(currentTeam)
   )
   else  print("Not found")
 end
  
end)

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:50:09.340Z

The Event is beeing called.
But no message no print.
That tells us, currentTeam has a value but we can’t read it…

with currentTeam = {} I get as output table:0000003435
a hex code

mikou · 2019-04-22T20:55:54.018Z

Can try:

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    team = tostsring(currentTeam)
 if currentTeam ~= ''  then --just for debug
     print(team)
   )
   else  print("Not found")
 end
  
end)

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T20:57:36.997Z

Oh, I had the old debug my bad.
now

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(1000)
    if currentTeam ~= '' then --just for debug
        print(currentTeam)
    else  
        print("Not found")
    end
end)

I get Not Found

mikou · 2019-04-22T21:00:23.891Z

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    team = tostsring(currentTeam)
     print(team)
end)

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T21:01:38.619Z

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    team = tostring(currentTeam)
    if currentTeam ~= '' then --just for debug
        print(team)
    else  
        print("Not found")
    end
end)

Not Found

mikou · 2019-04-22T21:02:33.878Z

i’ve edit ^^

Sezo38 · 2019-04-22T21:04:19.857Z

still not showing.
But I found a way.

currentTeam = ''
local cteam

-- Event to get variable currentTeam in client side
RegisterNetEvent('gw:currentTeamSend')
AddEventHandler('gw:currentTeamSend', function(currentTeam)
    cteam = currentTeam
end)

RegisterCommand('currentTeam', function()
    TriggerServerEvent('gw:currentTeamGet')
    Wait(100)
    -- team = tostring(currentTeam)
    print(cteam)
end)

With cteam its working lol

mikou · 2019-04-22T21:09:19.947Z

Lol this for sure a stupid error of me .
Now i remember.I’ve already encountered this problem,but there focused on the registercommand fonction and miss this.What an asshole .
