Custom event is not working

[Dzsozi (h03)]

Hello!

I am trying to make a new custom server-sided event for my weather system, but for some reason it doesn't work in an other script. Here's the handling of my custom event in weatherS.lua:

addEvent("onWeatherChange", true)
local lastWeather = getWeather()
function checkNewWeather()
    local weather = getWeather()
    if weather ~= lastWeather then
        triggerEvent("onWeatherChange", getRootElement(), lastWeather, weather)
        lastWeather = weather
    end
end
setTimer(checkNewWeather, 50, 0)

And here's the part that doesn't work inside waterS.lua:

function testWeatherEvent(lastWeather, weather)
  	outputChatBox(tostring(weather))
	outputChatBox("lol")
end
addEventHandler("onWeatherChange", getRootElement(), testWeatherEvent)

It doesn't output anything from the waterS.lua, not even the "lol" string.

Finally, here's my meta.xml:

<meta>
	<download_priority_group/>2<download_priority_group/>
	
	<script src="waterS.lua" type="server" />
	<script src="weatherS.lua" type="server" />
	<script src="timecycS.lua" type="server" />
	
	<export function="onWeatherChange" type="server" />
</meta>

Could somebody tell me what is the problem or what am I doing wrong, or help me fixing this?

Try removing

<export function="onWeatherChange" type="server" />

from your meta. It's not a function.

Still not working, btw, it must be added there so you can use the event in other resources as well.

This one works totally fine for me:

 

Spoiler

 

Just tested your script, works perfectly for me.

Fixed it by myself omg...

The problem was in the meta, I should write the weatherS.lua before the waterS.lua, not after the waterS.lua. Thank you anyway!
