[Help] Small random car script help please

[BieHDC]

Hello,

i want to make a random car map with markers and i have dissallowed vehicles. Now when the vehicle isnt allowed i get a predefined vehicle (id=429), but i want that it will as often math.random, until a allowed vehicle is calculated.

Please help me fix

Here is code:

function generateZufallCarID () 
    vehicleID = math.random(399, 609) 
    if disallowedVehicle[vehicleID] then 
        return 429 
    else 
        return vehicleID 
  end 
end

I already saw it but i dont kwon where and how to put in

function generateZufallCarID() 
    vehicleID = math.random(399, 609) 
    while disallowed[vehicleID] do 
        vehicleID = math.random(399, 609) 
    end 
    return vehicleID 
end

Now i get this error:

ERROR: BieHDChexagontowers\hexatowers.lua:25: attempt to index global

'disallowed' (a nil value)

Here is the disallowed vehicle list:

disallowedVehicle = {[430] = true, [435] = true, [450] = true, [591] = true, [606] = true, [607] = true, [610] = true, [611] = true, [584] = true, [608] = true, [592] = true, [577] = true, [472] = true, [473] = true, [493] = true, [595] = true, [484] = true, [430] = true, [453] = true, [452] = true, [446] = true, [454] = true, [539] = true, [538] = true, [537] = true, [590] = true, [569] = true, [570] = true, [449] = true}

I may have found the error:

I think you written disallowed[vehicleID] but it schould be disallowedVehicle[vehicleID]

  
while disallowedVehicle[vehicleID] do 
       vehicleID = math.random(399, 609)

Yes it should because the table variable is 'disallowedVehicle' if it works don't say thank you to me it's for Cadu .
