the formatting of these keeps messing me up.. ive tried in brackets etc. Any suggestions for something I've missed? |
That's not valid Lua syntax.
You need to store each return value you want to compare into a local variable and then compare each of them separately:
Lua Code:
local savedPlayer = xxx.savedVariables.savedPlayer
if not IsPlayerInGroup(savedPlayer) and IsFriend(savedPlayer) then
for iD = 1, GetNumFriends() do
local friendName, _, status = GetFriendInfo(iD)
if friendName == savedPlayer and status == PLAYER_STATUS_ONLINE then
