Post Lua script crashes game?
So, I'm modifying the AI Lua so my actor has a little bar over his head. This is the beginning of the script: (The rest isn't any different)



The bar floats over his head just fine. However... After a few seconds the game crashes without error. What's wrong?

You should check if the bar exists before setting its position.

MOSParticles will automatically delete themselves after not moving for a while, even if they have a long lifetime. To work around this, you can set the MOSParticle's Age to 0 and ToDelete to false every update.

Um... The bar that floats above my head settles when I move it through the ground 1/8 of the time D:

This is the start of the lua:


And this is the ini for the bar:



I can't understand what's wrong :oops:

And if you use a MOSRotating instead of a MOSParticle?

I did the bar thingie for a charging weapon, and I used a MOSRotating and I haven't got any problems at all.

Make it pinned and ToSettle = false.
