Stack overflow

[Axel]

marker = createMarker ( 2726.98633, -2015.18066, 12.55469, "cylinder", 1.5, 255, 255, 0, 170 ) 
  
markere = {  
            { 2701.85010, -2007.65076, 13.39157 }, 
            { 2696.19385, -1999.32336, 13.30278 }, 
           }    
  
function create ()    
local x,y,z = unpack ( markere [ math.random ( #markere ) ] ) 
createMarker ( x, y, z+2, "arrow", 1.5, 255, 255, 0, 170 ) 
createVehicle ( 411, x, y, z) 
end 
addEventHandler("onMarkerHit",getRootElement(),create) 

The problem is that where i hit the marker, it creates alot of vehicles and outputs a error about stack overflow, then it times out..

Yea thanks... was just the marker.... always making stupid and little mistakes..

Either way, it shouldn't cause a stack overflow error..

[Axel]

No... i used getRootElement() instead of marker so when i was hitting it it was returning and creating the vehicle and marker over and over again....

It should not anyway.

Aha you are correct (anderl it should)

Someone needs some lessons on what, how, and why a program uses a stack. Most importantly, how an over flow occurs.

I don't need any lessons about that, I know perfectly that. I just did not know that it would re-call every time using "root" ( never had that issue ).

OKAY DONT FIGHT!

Anderl, and myself, didn't notice the createMarker. I noticed the createMarker afterwards, but he didn't. He's not a bad scripter and he definitely knows what a stack overflow error is.

I'll lock the topic before it turns into a war.
