setPedOnFire and isPedOnFire

[Tails]

Woops. Guess what...problems...

I'm getting bad arguments @ setPedOnFire and isPedOnFire but I don't really understand why?

Any bit of help is appreciated.

function playerfire ( thePlayer ) 
thePlayer = isElement ( thePlayer ) 
    setPedOnFire ( thePlayer, true ) 
        if ( isPedOnFire ( thePlayer ) ) then 
        setTimer ( 
            function ( thePlayer ) 
                    setElementHealth ( thePlayer, getElementHealth ( thePlayer ) + 5 ) 
            end 
            , 2000, 0, source 
        ) 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fire", playerfire)

function g(player) if (isPedOnFire(player)) then setPedOnFire(player, false) else setPedOnFire(player, true) end end 
addCommandHandler("firemeup", g) 

do the rest

function playerfire(player) 
     setPedOnFire(player, true) 
     if isPedOnFire(player) then 
          setTimer(function(player) 
               setElementHealth(player, getElementHealth(player) + 5) 
          end, 2000, 0, player) 
     end 
end 
addCommandHandler("fire", playerfire)

Your code is wrong here

  thePlayer = isElement(thePlayer)  

Variable thePlayer now is boolean but you should use userdata in other functions like setElementHealth and etc. So this line in your code is not needed. Also

setTimer ( 
            function ( thePlayer ) 
                    setElementHealth ( thePlayer, getElementHealth ( thePlayer ) + 5 ) 
            end 
            , 2000, 0, source 
        ) 

source is not defined in your code. Source is nil. You should use thePlayer variable.
