Server crashes every few minutes

[CarlBishop]

Dear all.

I'm experiencing the crash every few minutes.

Here the logs:

2017-12-17 23:59:14: ACTION[Server]: reandh3 respawns at (0,16,-1) 2017-12-18 00:00:13: WARNING[Server]: Undeclared global variable "check_in_beds" accessed at ...t/bin/../games/Lord-of-the-Test/mods/lottblocks/beds.lua:31 2017-12-18 00:00:14: ERROR[Main]: ServerError: AsyncErr: ServerThread::run Lua: Runtime error from mod 'lottblocks' in callback on_leaveplayer(): ...t/bin/../games/Lord-of-the-Test/mods/lottblocks/beds.lua:31: attempt to call global 'check_in_beds' (a nil value) 2017-12-18 00:00:14: ERROR[Main]: stack traceback: 2017-12-18 00:00:14: ERROR[Main]: ...t/bin/../games/Lord-of-the-Test/mods/lottblocks/beds.lua:31: in function <...t/bin/../games/Lord-of-the-Test/mods/lottblocks/beds.lua:27> 2017-12-18 00:00:14: ERROR[Main]: /home/peppino/minetest/bin/../builtin/game/register.lua:412: in function </home/peppino/minetest/bin/../builtin/game/register.lua:392>

and also

Seems happens when someone join the server or respawn.

My enviroment is:

Minetest 0.4.16 (Linux) Using Irrlicht 1.8.3 Build info: VER=0.4.16 BUILD_TYPE=Release RUN_IN_PLACE=1 USE_GETTEXT=0 USE_SOUND=1 USE_CURL=1 USE_FREETYPE=1 USE_LUAJIT=1 STATIC_SHAREDIR="."

I hope this can be usefull to improve the script.

@NewbProgrammer101 Is this from the beds code you added recently?

[Xaleth]

Indeed it is, checking...

[CarlBishop]

I will check asap and let you know.

[CarlBishop]

Nothing to do, every time someone uses a bed the server goes down

[Xaleth]

Try this commit.

@Newbprogrammer101 Try moving the local functions to the front, before it's called.

[neinwhal]

@peppinoita have you tried out @NewbProgrammer101 's latest changes on his branch? If there's no response soon, I will close the issue and push that fix in, because this have been delayed far too long.

[CarlBishop]

sorry but I do not have time to test the fix.
