getting var from for loop

[BulleTTime]

Hi, could anyone explain why the "id" var cant be accesed right after the for loop. It always get me an error:

"Bad argument @ 'outputChatBox'"

when i trace the id inside the for loop it does work..

  
for num = 1,amount do 
    if (getDistanceBetweenPoints3D(cords[num].x, cords[num].y, cords[num].z, x, y, z) < getDistanceBetweenPoints3D(cords[num-1].x, cords[num-1].y, cords[num-1].z, x, y, z)) then 
        local id = cords[num].Id 
    end  
end 
outputChatBox(id, source)

Because the variable 'id' is local to the if statement in the loop, so remove the local

im getting still the error,without the local

Maybe the source is a nil value then

As i said last night, outputChatBox only accepts strings, not numbers. Try using tostring() inside the outputChatBox
