Condition function

[nikitafloy]

In this function terminates before for, why?

    function facJob( hitElement, matchingDimension ) 
    if isElementWithinMarker ( hitElement, source ) then 
    local attachedElements = getAttachedElements ( hitElement ) 
    if attachedElements then 
    outputChatBox('0') --    output 0 and all. 
    for _, ElementValue in ipairs ( attachedElements ) do 
        outputDebugString ( '1' ) 
        if getElementModel ( ElementValue ) == 3016 then break else 
            vbjob ( source, hitElement ) 
            break 
        end 
    end 
    else outputChatBox('2') vbjob ( source, hitElement ) 
    end 
    end 
    end

Probably because element are not attached at line 4, so as there is no else to the if statement it would just end

Sorry, I don't really understand you. What should i do?

I know that the table is created with the elements, but there are no elements. Then would it be written debug 'bad argument', but here it is not.

getAttachedElements will output a table with all the elements attached to it, however if there are no elements attached to it it will return a blank table.

If there are no elements attached to hitElement then line 6 will loop through an empty table.

Good luck

I want to know what returns this table? nil - does not work.

This is my main question. thx

    if attachedElements == nil then

use this if-statement to see if the table is empty;

if ( next ( attachedElements ) == nil ) then
