Hi, @DogukanUcan, your screenshot doesn't work anymore. Could you reupload it so we can help you

@JeViCo 

Debug:

ERROR: killmessages\gui.Lua:234:bad argument #1 to 'ipairs'(table expected,got nil)

[JeViCo]

So contentMessages[line] is nil so line variable is nil as well

try to find destroyLine function call in your code

[DogukanUcan]

function destroyLine ( line )
	for k,part in ipairs(contentMessages[line]) do
		destroyWidget(part)
	end
	contentMessages[line] = {}
end

what should i do here?

The very reason for the error is unclear. Because the issue is happening somewhere else.

 

This is how you can get rid of the error, for this function only.

function destroyLine ( line )
	if contentMessages[line] then -- is there a `line` to destroy?
		for k,part in ipairs(contentMessages[line]) do
			destroyWidget(part)
		end
		contentMessages[line] = {}
		return true -- success < not required, but it might help you in the future solve the real issue.
	end
	return false -- something is wrong?
end
