After watching his video, I have tried to implement it into my own world, only to get the error message -

mobs: 96: attempt to index ? (a nil value)

anyone know a fix for this

-I did see that direwolf did get this error, only to change it without showing the fix..

Any help?
 
Wait for him to pastebin the fixed version (or someone else to bother posting their fix)?

The only alternative is to learn Lua and debug it yourself... This would be my solution of choice, btw. That way I should never have the issue again.
 
Not that I know a fix, but DW20 is known for giving the 'correct' pastbin code when the code is completed and/or fixed. So wait a few days until the next video of that series.

No - I saw it working in the video and he pastebin while it was working - which still doesn't work... - it is probably a problem with how I layed my cables..
 
Was looking over versions of computercraft awhile back. DW20 pack does't use the newest of the new version. So some stuff from the wiki and other sources won't always work and can lead to a lot of confusion.

It is probably layout if you are using the exact code that was used. I think everything has to be laid out exactly the same. At least as far as which side connects to which side.

This actually tells you exactly where the problem is: line 96 of the code: you are trying to feed something the value "nil"(no value) which it doesn't like.
 
In the same video Dire got the same error, if you recall he was missing a peripheral.
 
If he didnt pastebin in the end of the video then expect that he can have changed some code to make it work. He is cutting in the movies so its not everything you see.
 
He pastebinned the version with errors stating that the new version would be up in a couple of days. Since today is the next episode I expect he'll have the new version ready, but I have not seen the video yet.

[Edit] My error... Today's episode was Server play on 1.7. Tomorrow is the 1.6 Let's Play. I got confused because I watched Soryn's live Twitch last night which is also on the server :confused:

[Edit II] We've had 2, maybe 3 Server episodes in a row (can't remember back that far :D)... I wonder if DW20 is getting ready to start a new Let's Play with his 1.7.10 version he submitted to the FtB pack group earlier this week? (It's SO hard to type with fingers crossed :D)

He need to fix his TC essentia system - because I need that now... its special interesting because on my server we are now using Monster 1.1.2 and we have updated CC to 1.6
 
Keep in mind that DW20 plays on pre-alpha mods, testing them before requesting they be included in the pack. What works in the video may be broken if you upgrade any of the mods beyond the version he used to build the system.

A good example: Tuesday night DW was recording a Server video during Soaryn's Twitch stream. Just after he finished and left for the night Soaryn borrowed a wand with "Equivalent Exchange" (Thaumcraft) on it. He selected the block type he was replacing ok, but when he selected the new block the server crashed HARD, as in down for over an hour. This was a new Thaumcraft load, BTW.

I think the only real change in CC 1.6 is the term.native change. It is pretty simple to search and replace for.

It can be but DW20's essentia system has not been working even in his videos for some time....[DOUBLEPOST=1407484375][/DOUBLEPOST]
