Hello
I am getting a LUA error I do not understand and was wondering if anyone here could help.
Thanks

sorry - I'm not clairvoyant ;)
The error must be within your your custom script. Quite sure expected parameters are not compatible to an invoked function.
Since the errors occur in oldFunc, saveSavegame, superFunc .. i'd guess you did something wrong in an overwritten or appended function.

All I did was add cotton_windrow with the additionalMapTypse mod to go with my cotton, thanks for your help but I am no good with LUA scripting so not sure where or what to do.

Nice - you could have mentioned earlier, that you don't use an own script, but the "additionalMapTypes.lua".

Older mod maps have this lua with version upto 1.0.0.8, which generates an error with user defined windrow, if the baleTypeName is missing.
--- line 294 ---
baleTypeName = Utils.getNoNil(getXMLString(xmlFile, fruitTypeKey..'#baleTypeName'), oat_windrow),
----------------
oat_windrow isn't quoted, so it is interpreted as variable and this wasn't defined earlier - it is nil.

Your error(s) should disappear, if you define the baleTypeName explicitely.

Otherwise (recommanded) you could exchange the lua with the updated vs 1.0.0.9, which is adapted to patch 1.4.4 and (hopefully) bugfixed.

If not, then edit the lua for yourself. Search this faulty line and set oat_windrow in quotes.

Thank you so much!
I updated the lua file and made a few changes in the modDesc and it is working perfectly now!

Thanks again for your help!

Tony
