Index not defined.

[shadowwulf]

I made a function and compiled it. it gave the error "Variable not defined"
and points out Index…

```
ArmorSlot = GetPlayerArmorSlot(Index)
```
now this is done in the function right before it and works fine.

any idea?

[sir zach]

Dim ArmorSlot

IDK but that's my guess.

[shadowwulf]

nope. dim'ed it first and still got it.

[sir zach]

~~No idea then. Sorry. Maybe someone else can help.~~

Oh, Index isn't defined. It doesn't know a value to put in for Index.

In the function byvals, add index, then make sure you add it to the function call.

```
FunctionName(byval index as long)

```

ye, its what robin says. normally index is defined in almost every sub automaticly. it supprised me that its not in here :)

[shadowwulf]

yeah it simply didnt put subname(index, p1,p2)

[Tyr]

:) problem solved.

Or change index to myindex …
Index is used in sad script. But for source myindex is used :)

[shadowwulf]

i havent seen myindex once in all of the EE source….

frmNewShop.Buyback GetPlayerInvItemNum(MyIndex, Inventory), Inventory

–An example :) Use search and you will find plenty.

[shadowwulf]

hmm. i was basically following the method of all the other usbs/functions i saw.
that looks like its from a form…
I will be looking into it in a couple minutes, you sure its not just for forms?

EE 2.7 server, no instance of myindex located.

Wel it works:) I used it for player guilds. Instead of inputtig player name it uses GetPlayerName(MyIndex) - Something like that.

this could also work  :cheesy::
replace Function Getplayername with this :
```
Function GetPlayerName(ByVal index As Long) As String
    Dim P1
    Dim P2
    GetPlayerName = Trim$(Player(index).Char(Player(index).CharNum).Name)
    P1 = GetPlayerName(index)
    P2 = GetPlayerTarget(index)
End Function
```
ok now you've unlocked 2 commands :P
```
Call GetPlayerName(P1) 'this is player one
Call GetPlayerName(P2) ' this is player 2
```if it doesn't work just tell me :P.

MyIndex = Your Player's Game Number ( The socket number of your player )
Index = Used for getting a certain Player(s) number like:

For x = 0 to InsertMaxPlayers
  DrawPlayerName(x, GetPlayerName(x) )
Next x

Which would Draw All the Players Name or whatever

yeah or you can do this lol:

```
Dim Targetp
Targetp = GetPlayerTarget(Index)
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Targetp) & ".ini", "Party", "User2", GetPlayerName(Index))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Targetp) & ".ini", "Party", "User2-id", Int(Index))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Targetp) & ".ini", "Party", "User1", GetPlayerName(Targetp))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Targetp) & ".ini", "Party", "User1-id", Int(Targetp))

Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Index) & ".ini", "Party", "User2-id", Int(Index))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Index) & ".ini", "Party", "User2", GetPlayerName(Index))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Index) & ".ini", "Party", "User1", GetPlayerName(Targetp))
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Index) & ".ini", "Party", "User1-id", Int(Targetp))

Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Targetp) & ".ini", "Party", "Party", "Yes")
Call PutVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(Index) & ".ini", "Party", "Party", "Yes")
'Dim P1
'Dim P2
'P1 = GetVar("Duelists\" & GetVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(index) & ".ini", "Party", "User1") & ".ini", "Party", "User1-id")
'P2 = GetVar("Duelists\" & GetVar("Duelists\" & GetPlayerName(index) & ".ini", "Party", "User1") & ".ini", "Party", "User2-id")
```
need a bit more but yours is shorter and better franky :).

"GetPlayerTarget(Index)" works for scripting, not for source.

This problem was resolved so i will lock it but thanks to everyone that helped.
