Trigger & Table problem

[MAB]

I am triggering an client event to add some strings to a table.. not working.. or let me by more clear..

ty is not found always...

Always says "Name Joined the game." but never "Name left the game."

that is because ty is not found so what to do?

NOTICE: tested by increasing the time of the timer

client:

  
local sx,sy = guiGetScreenSize() 
local joins = {} 
  
function delete2(n,t) 
    for i=1,#joins do 
        if joins[i].name == n and joins[i].ty == t then 
           table.remove(joins,i) 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
function addOnQuit(n,t) 
table.insert(joins,{name = n, ty = t}) 
setTimer(delete2,3000,1,n,t) 
end 
addEvent("addone2",true) 
addEventHandler("addone2",root,addOnQuit) 
  
function draw() 
    for i=1,#joins do 
        if joins[i].ty then 
           local ty = joins[i].ty 
           dxDrawImage(10,(sy/2)+(i*10),16,16,"images/quit.png") 
           dxDrawText(joins[i].n.." left the game. ["..ty.."]",30,(sy/2)+(i*10)+3,nil,nil,tocolor(255,255,255,255),1,"default-bold") 
        else 
           local name = joins[i].name 
           dxDrawImage(10,(sy/2)+(i*10),16,16,"images/join.png") 
           dxDrawText(name.." joined the game.",30,(sy/2)+(i*10)+3,nil,nil,tocolor(255,255,255,255),1,"default-bold") 
        end 
    end 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,draw) 

server:

function trigger2(t) 
local name = getPlayerName(source) 
triggerClientEvent("addone2",root,name,t) 
end 
addEventHandler("onPlayerQuit",root,trigger2)

You're using root to trigger the function towards the client. Try to use getRandomPlayer. Root never really worked for me either.. no idea what the hell the problem is with that.
