Mod Idea: Nebula generating weapon

[X_TheUnknown_X]

No, but when I delete the timer, I no longer get a TypeError. It's confusing.

Please post the entire trace.

Here's the error message (didn't read the AttributeError, srry), and just in case - a copy of my current script is attached (placed in QBAutoStart). The script's a little messy, I know - but it'll be cleaned up if I decide to release it.

You can generate extra debug information by using the print keyword, just add short (or even just increasing numbers) along the lines of the function, then you can see what is happening.

One thing that I did notice, is where you try to find the player location, what you are actually doing is setting the location of the player to 0.000000, -5.000000, 0.00000, and then going on to store None in bPlayerLocate (doesn't the b suggest boolean?). And finally, which might be a cause (but shouldn't be) you pass that bPlayerLocate to CreateShip, which expects either None (so that's good) or a String that denotes a Waypoint in the system.


Please try the extra debug idea first and see what the last outputted line was.

I tried your print numbers method, and the NebulaTimeTimer IS the last line called before the TypeError.
I still can't understand the error because there are no arguments (that I know of) in the line.
Sorry for my delay, but I was trying different ways to fix the error. Unfortunately, they failed.

Tag this under "why didn't I think of this sooner".

The error, "no arguments expected" can be explained in two ways, one, you called a method/function without parameters, but there are parameters defined for that function, or (and this is currently the case!) you have a function/method without parameters, but you are calling it with parameters.

In this case, LoadNebula needs to take a pObject and a pEvent (or something else that takes your fancy).

And you need to call pObject.CallNextHandler(pEvent).
