why the console says bad argument?

    basegate = createObject ( 3115, 1728.8000488281, -1378.0999755859, 13.5, 0, 90, 0 ) 
    basecol = createColCircle ( 1728.8000488281, -1378.0999755859, 13.5, 7 ) 
      
    function openbase_area69gates ( thePlayer ) 
          local gang = exports [ 'ROADgang' ]:getAccountGang ( getAccountName ( getPlayerAccount ( client ) ) ) --changed source to client (for safety reasons) 
      if ( gang == "SWAT" ) then 
            moveObject ( basegate, 5000, 1728.8000488281, -1378.0999755859, 0 ) 
        end 
    end 
    addEventHandler ( "onColShapeHit", basecol, openbase_area69gates ) 
  
function closebase_area69gates(thePlayer) 
    local gang = exports [ 'ROADgang' ]:getAccountGang ( getAccountName ( getPlayerAccount ( client ) ) ) --changed source to client (for safety reasons) 
      if ( gang == "SWAT" ) then 
       moveObject (basegate, 5000, 1728.8000488281, -1378.0999755859, 13.5 ) 
   
end 
end 
addEventHandler( "onColShapeLeave", basecol, closebase_area69gates )

That's because you're using "client" as player element, but your player element is: "thePlayer".

i tried with the player, it works, but the console always says bad argument

[Castillo]

Bad argument where?

[2012-06-20 19:50:03] WARNING: ROADadmin\base_area69.lua:6: Bad argument @ 'getAccountName' [Expected account at argument 1, got boolean]

client is source, as far as I know.

Source in those events is the marker, not the player element.

[Monty]

tried also with source, not working

[Anderl]

Source in those events is the marker, not the player element.
