    The processEffects() calls processEffect() for each effect. ProcessEffect runs the "DMGO" effect and because I removed the effect in the processing of the DMGO if the PC died in manager_action_damage.lua when the processEffect() continued trying to use the effect it would bomb.

    I ended up not removing the effect because of all the hackery I had to do to make it work... I did get it working it just seemed a bit over the top and I really dont want to override CoreRPG unless I have to...

    Sorry if this was already addressed, but can you not do:

    if not next(databasenode) then
    Debug.console('Table is Empty')
    else
    Debug.console('Table is not Empty')
    end

    Code:
    Runtime Notice: Reloading ruleset
    Script Error: [string "scripts/manager_effect_adnd.lua"]:564: bad argument #1 to 'next' (table expected, got userdata)
    The type() of the variable is databasenode so I am pretty sure that's why it barfed.

    Ah, sorry I missed the part of the next call not seeing the databasenode as a table.

    Can you try something like:

    local node = DB.findNode('Somemissingnode');
    local node2 = DB.findNode('currencies.id-00001.name')

    local nodeType = type(node2);

    print(node2)

    if type(node) == 'databasenode' then
    print('Node Found')
    else
    print('Node Not Found')
    end

    if type(node2) == 'databasenode' then
    print('Node2 Found')
    else
    print('Node2 Not Found')
    end

    print('Node2 Found')
    else
    print('Node2 Not Found')
    end
    I cannot get the path string of the node without .getPath(). nodeEffect.getPath() would fail... the first post contained the only solution available to my knowledge.

    Code:
        -- check if effect still exists. removed in fCustomOnEffectActorStartTurn() probably
        -- we check the .getPath() through pcall and if it fails then just end this run.
        if not pcall(function () nodeEffect.getPath() end) then 
          Debug.console("manager_effect_adnd.lua","adnd_processEffect","nodeEffect removed in-line",nodeEffect);    
          return;
        end

    Ok. Just trying to get a hang of coding this stuff.
    Trying to learn and all.

    I had a similar thing when deleting nodes if there was nothing in the node it would show that. What I did was check the if there were any children under the node
    Code:
    childCount = DB.getChildCount(nodeChar,"defenses.armour");
    			if (childCount > 0) then
    if there was something there child count would be more than zero. if there was nothing there it would be zero. Maybe that will help?
