How could this weapon script be fixed?
The Error i get is: attempt to compare nil with a number. The line i get the error is:
if LeftButtonDownTime and currTime - LeftButtonDownTime > Start(THROW) and--WHAT WRONG? urrTime - LeftButtonDownTime < 1.15 then ThrowAttack()
local SLASH_DAMAGE = 25 local DOWNSTAB_DAMAGE = 25 local Damage = 25 local SPEED = 85 local THROW = 0.38 local THROWING_DAMAGE = 100 --WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? function Start() if Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Default.Value == true then SLASH_DAMAGE = 25 DOWNSTAB_DAMAGE = 25 Damage = 25 SPEED = 85 THROW = 0.38 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade2.Value == true then SLASH_DAMAGE = 30 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade3.Value == true then DOWNSTAB_DAMAGE = 30 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade4.Value == true then Damage = 30 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade5.Value == true then SPEED = 100 SLASH_DAMAGE = 50 DOWNSTAB_DAMAGE = 50 Damage = 50 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade7.Value == true then SPEED = 125 elseif Game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Upgrade8.Value == true then THROW = 0.19 end end
THIS IS NOT FULL SCRIPT, JUST EXAMPLE AND WHERE THE ERROR IS!

First off, on the first line currTime is undefined. I'm assuming you defined that elsewhere, but I thought I should say it anyway. Secondly you aren't using the function arguments in your Start() function so when you call it on the first line with Start(throw) the (throw) isn't actually doing anything. Thirdly, in order for the Start(throw) line to actually give anything to the logic of line one (and this is probably why you are getting the nil) you have to use "return THROW". I think you got this mixed up with using function arguments. example:
function throw()
throw = 2
return throw
end
print(throw()) -- prints 2
function throw(x)
throw = 2*x
return throw()
end
print(throw(2)) -- prints 4
