i really hope im right here, as on a discord server no one wants to help me for some reason.
We run a Project for a game called Garry's Mod and currently try to get a "Toxic Gas" Script Working.
But we face the following issue
[ERROR] gamemodes/zombierp/plugins/toxicgas/sh_plugin.lua:44: attempt to index local 'item' (a boolean value)
1. IsEquippingGasmask - gamemodes/zombierp/plugins/toxicgas/sh_plugin.lua:44
2. v - gamemodes/zombierp/plugins/toxicgas/sh_plugin.lua:121
3. unknown - gamemodes/helix/gamemode/core/libs/sh_plugin.lua:477
And me being fairly new to Lua, im just completly confused and dont know how to fix it.
Here is the Full Script

I Really hope someone can help me with that as im trying since 2 days now
Try replacing for y, item in pairs(items) do with for item, _ in pairs(items) do.
Reason: there is a chance that items is a set, i.e., a Lua table, in which keys are set members and values are true.
