SetAccountData problem

[Simbad de Zeeman]

Hi, im having a problem with saving data into player accounts (accounts.xml)

i use this simple test code

function save ( source )     
    local playeraccount = getClientAccount ( source ) 
    if ( playeraccount ) then        
        save = setAccountData ( playeraccount, "test", "leukhe" ) 
        if( save ) then 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: saved succesfull.", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: didnt save... ", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        end      
    end 
end 
  
  
addCommandHandler ( "save", save ) 

when i type /save, it displays "TEST: saved succesfull." in the chat... but there is no data saved in my account

Does someone maybe know whats the problem? or is it a bug

This works....

function save ( source )     
    local playeraccount = getClientAccount ( source ) 
    if ( playeraccount ) then 
        leukhe = "leuk he" 
        save = setAccountData ( playeraccount, "test",  leukhe) 
        if( save ) then 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: saved succesfull.", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: didnt save... ", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        end      
    end 
end

It doesn't

edit: it does..

but strange...

its just that it cant save strings or something but it returns true.

edit 2: and setaccountdata doesnt work in event 'OnClientLogout' ( maybe a bug ? )

Try something like this (taking money as an example)

function save ( source )     
    local playeraccount = getClientAccount ( source ) 
    if ( playeraccount ) then 
        local playermoney = getPlayerMoney ( source ) 
        save = setAccountData ( playeraccount, "money",  playermoney) 
        if( save ) then 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: saved succesfull.", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        else 
            outputChatBox ( "TEST: didnt save... ", source , 66, 237, 251 ) 
        end      
    end 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerQuit", getRootElement ( ),  save )

That was not my question ( i already made that though )

and i know what the problem was now so this topic comes to an end
