error index tointeger does not exist

I have this error when trying to buy a car, but before it worked.

Why are you not loading the data into an array or class?

as this is partial your issue. You might also have a lagy script because of it.

Code Select Expand

Cash <- array(GetMaxPlayers(), 0);

Code Select Expand

else if ( Cash[player.ID] < 1 )
on login you should have something in the method of

Code Select Expand

          Kills[player.ID] = GetSQLColumnData( q, 0 );
          Deaths[player.ID] = GetSQLColumnData( q, 1 );
          Cash[player.ID] = GetSQLColumnData( q, 2 );
This way you just update the arrays or class.
also never use player.Cash create your own function it's highly exploitable.
Try to update your cash system as well account system.
for a money system use something like

Code Select Expand

function SetCash(player, amount) {
  Cash[player.ID] += amount;
  player.Cash = Cash[player.ID];

}
usage is

Code Select Expand

SetCash(player, 100); for a positive amount

Code Select Expand

SetCash(player, -100); for a negative amount


I'm telling you it's highly needed and good methods of scripting

Most likely that GetColumnData() returned a null value after an error or something. That's one of the issues with the official SQLite plugin. That it does not report errors. So you're left to wonder why doesn't your code work. I'd suggest using this instead.

It's indicated that you validate the values that you retrieve from database. So you don't end up calling methods on the wrong value type.

In fact, you can even see in the image that 'q' is NULL. Therefore, your query did not return anything.

Thank you guys, i will have a look into it tonight and try to fix this.

Why do you think player.Cash is exploitable? Don't take it as a critic, mine's a sincere question.

[Mötley]

Well @...kneedl_ I am very very good at memory addresses, and as a scripter I always check for ways to break my system, When I noticed I can eventually change the memory addresses with forced entry points and save the hacked cash to my account I knew it was a no no to use player I cash,.

So with that I basically use that function above

Code Select Expand

function SetCash(player, amount) {
  Cash[player.ID] += amount;
  player.Cash = Cash[player.ID];

}
Yes it can be a little annoying but it's worth it, let alone eventually cracking player.Cash is annoying to but If I can do it so can someone else. And that's a exploit that's best to stay away from as I prefer to not remove everyones cash from there accounts due to exploits I could of prevented.

It's best to create your own function for wanted level as well Armour and Health I just have not gotten that far. Player.Skin is exploitable when saving to accounts as well BUT that's only helpful when you have to buy skins. I can go into stronger detail if needed..

You cant.

[Thijn]

You should never rely on the client when it comes to something like money. While it might be tricky to modify, it's certainly not impossible.
A client could never modify server-side values though. So just to be safe, keep track of money server-side.

[Stormeus]

I don't believe the client can manipulate player.Cash in 0.4.

[Kewun]

ofc, there exists client script exploit in lu, but in vcmp is impossible..

Depends on who does the scripting. Scripting without knowing what you're doing is the same as making the impossible into possible. And you cannot argue with me on that.

[Mötley]

There are methods I used on "My server" that work, I could also use the same methods on another server but IT'S HIGHLY ILLEGAL with saying that now you possibly know what I am doing, if not thats great, I will not explain this to anyone. As it's really brutal and illegal if used on someones host. I really did not want to go any further into this. Not many will know how to do this as well be capable so there is not much worries, Thats why I do this as I said

good methods of scripting

The possibility is rare. It takes a lot of time. as well really irritating. just remember this if you have a really good server, Mainly a RPG server.
I'm not hear to wreak your server. I had no intension of sharing as of why, just giving a pointer without saying anything.

[EK.IceFlake]

Illegal, by law, by technical limitation, or by ethics?

[Mötley]

I prefer not to say.. requesting a lock

I'm requesting for you to PM the method to a developer.

@Eva has not responded if the issue is fixed, so until then this topic remains open.
