Right now, there are a few if statements in the changes I made to the one function, here is a representative one that we would want to change:
if not self._critTable[crit] then print("NIL VARIABLE: self._critTable[crit]") end
If you change it like this:
if not self._critTable[crit] then
print("NIL VARIABLE: self._critTable[crit]")
print("Crit: " .. crit)
end
Then it should display the value of the crit variable that has no corresponding value in the _critTable.

it shows this:
NIL VARIABLE: self._critTable[crit]
Crit: pathetic
NIL VARIABLE: self._critLast[crit]
Thats the first damage list on the script. I dont know what went wrong.

Okay, try this. It should show the full table, so perhaps we will be able to see what went wrong.
if not self._critTable[crit] then
print("NIL VARIABLE: self._critTable[crit]")
display(crit)
display(self._critTable)
end

Statistics:
NIL VARIABLE: self._critTable[crit]
"pathetic"
{
critical = 0,
crushing = 0,
obliterating = 0,
["world-shattering"] = 0,
annihilating = 0
}
NIL VARIABLE: self._critLast[crit]

So, take your _critTable declaration (along with the other relevant declarations outside of the if statment. Your table obviously got messed up somehow, and never was rewritten.

So it must be old scripts? i installed and uninstalled 2x before finally wrote this one to my specs.
Is it the old info stuck on? How can i wipe it clean as of deleting those stuffs and add new triggers/scripts?
Thanks

Well, you can always just restart Mudlet, which will clear any old data for you.

Yeah. Same problem. You apparently have something messing up your table declarations. You need to make sure it is firing, and make sure there is nothing else jacking it up.
