Custom Playertype Crashing Certain Clients?

[FrogFreak]

 I have made a custom playertype for someone who has confirmed to me that any client who does not have this playertype add-on will crash. I've checked to see if I have non existent dsq's in the playertype's script, but it seems that that is not the case. I'm not exactly sure what to do with this. I'm sure that it is possible to have playertypes that a client does not have and still be able to play, as is the case with playertypes like Bushido's boss on his server.

Does anyone have any potential solutions to this issue?

Why did you put canJet = true; and canJet = 1; ?

[FrogFreak]

Why did you put canJet = true; and canJet = 1; ?

Oh, I guess I never noticed that. I didn't see any console errors, that I remember....

Though, I'm not particularly sure why this would make only people without the playertype add-on crash.

I don't really know. Also, what?

Those should be in the horse script too.
