[Help] Concatenate

[Wumbaloo]

Hi! I have a mystery error in the console, here's the error:

"script.lua:5: attempt to concatenate local 'sourcePlayer' (a userdata value) 

but no error in my code I think..

function setHP(sourcePlayer, command, targetPlayerName, value) 
        targetPlayer = getPlayerFromName (targetPlayerName) 
        setElementHealth (targetPlayer, value) 
        outputChatBox("Vous avez mis " .. value .. " HP à " .. targetPlayerName, sourcePlayer) 
        outputChatBox("L'Admin: " .. sourcePlayer " vous à mis votre HP à " .. value .. ".", targetPlayer) 
end 
addCommandHandler("setHP", setHP) 
addCommandHandler("sethp", setHP) 

Can you help me? Thanks!

script.lua:5: attempt to concatenate local 'sourcePlayer' (a userdata value)

means that you tried to join a string with a userdata (more specifically, userdata:element:player) value. You tried to embed the memory address for a player instead of his nickname (getPlayerName)

        outputChatBox("L'Admin: " .. sourcePlayer " vous à mis votre HP à " .. value .. ".", targetPlayer) 

should be

        outputChatBox("L'Admin: " .. getPlayerName(sourcePlayer) .." vous à mis votre HP à " .. value .. ".", targetPlayer)

Thanks! It work!

And another question, can I set different color in one outputChatBox?

outputChatBox("L'Admin: " .. getPlayerName(sourcePlayer) .." vous à mis votre HP à " .. value .. ".", targetPlayer,RED,GREEN,BLUE) 

Replace "RED,GREEN,BLUE" with color values 0-255

[Wumbaloo]

I know, but if I want to put "HP" in red and the other in green, how can I do?

outputChatBox ("#ffff00H#ff0000P", sourcePlayer, 255, 255, 255, true) 

this would do a yellow H and a red P

It's HEX color codes, not HTML, but yes.
