Exactly. A good way to make sure you don't make that mistake again is by having %user = findclientbyname(%user); at the beginning of the function so you know that it is going to be an object and don't have an extra variable floating around just to confuse you

how do i get this to only do it once when you spawn in the server not every time you spawn
--- Code: ---function gameConnection::spawnplayer(%client)
{
messageClient(%client, '', '\c6This server is running the Personal Message mod \c6use \c3/message USER MESSAGE \c6to send them a personal message.');
}
--- End code ---
Ipquarx:
Use gameConnection::onClientEnterGame.
But parent it, and package it.
