I wonder why do I even bother. Please read this link and post again once you're done.

Also, /debugscript 3

Type that command in the chat when you test your scripts.

.lua:9: attempt to compare number with boolean

[12p]

For once, I have the time and I'm feeling like it: I'll explain step by step.

I hope you understand the process and learn to do it on your own

Let's do it!

This the line that throws the error

if money >= 499 then 

"money"? That value is declared in this line

local money = getPlayerMoney ( source ) 

But, why is it a boolean (true/false)?

According to the wiki, getPlayerMoney (kindly click the blue-highlighted function above to see by yourself):

"Returns an integer with the amount of money the specified player has, false if the player is invalid."

So,You have an invalid player... "source"? Where does it come from?

addCommandHandler ( "armour", 
     function ( ) 

Nowhere? That's because commands don't give a "source" value. From the wiki (click the blue-highlighted addCommandHandler function above):

  Quote

These are the parameters for the handler function that is called when the command is used.

player playerSource, string commandName, [string arg1, string arg2, ...]

playerSource: The player who triggered the command. If not triggered by a player (e.g. by admin), this will be false.

So, this should fix it...

addCommandHandler ( "armour", 
     function (playerSource) 

Wait, how is this supposed to work when everything within that command handler function still uses "source"?

Obvious solution! Replace it all with this new player parameter!

Go on, fix it. I even told you what to do, so it shouldn't be bothersome.

If you still don't understand, you probably shouldn't be doing this sort of scripts yet.

Remember to always search in the wiki for documentation!
