Why is this not working "SimPostInit"

[Chewtoy]

function SimPostInit(player)

GLOBAL.LoadScript("commands.lua")

AddTestToolController(player)

end

function AddTestToolController(player)

player:AddComponent("testtoolcontroller")

end

AddSimPostInit(SimPostInit)

@Chewtoy, what you're wanting to accomplish should be done in AddPlayerPostInit.

 

So for your example it would be:

AddPlayerPostInit( function( player )    player:AddComponent("testtoolcontroller")end)

[DarkXero]

AddSimPostInit adds a function to a table.

Then, when the world starts, they all get executed like:

for k, v in pairs(simpostinits) do	v(wilson)end

The thing is, that wilson is indeed the result of GetPlayer() in Don't Starve, the player playing.

 

In DST, however, that wilson is nil.

 

So like @Kzisor, says, you want to use AddPlayerPostInit.

AddPlayerPostInit(function(player)	player:DoTaskInTime(0, function()		if player == GLOBAL.ThePlayer then			player:AddComponent("testtoolcontroller")		end	end)	end)

I see thanks for the reply
