<div class="IPBDescription">Class_ReplaceMethod is a nil?</div>The title pretty much explains it all. In the first ten minutes of coding my mod I hit a brick wall, where I've stayed for a few days now. I've already tried and exhausted every idea I could come up with, so I decided to turn to the NS2 modding community once again.
The code that's giving me an issue is just supposed to make Cysts provide line-of-site while connected to the hive.
<b>InfestationMod_Cyst.lua</b>
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->Script.Load("lua/Cyst.lua")
local originalOverrideCheckVision = Class_ReplaceMethod("Cyst", "OverrideCheckVision", function()
if Server then
return self:GetIsActuallyConnected()
else
return self:GetIsConnected()
end
end)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
<b>InfestationMod_Client.lua</b>
<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->Script.Load("lua/Client.lua")
Script.Load("lua/InfestationMod_Cyst.lua")
Event.Hook("UpdateClient", OnUpdateClient)<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
That's it. And yet, no matter what I do, I always get the same error.
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Attempt to call global 'Class_ReplaceMethod' (a nil value)<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'd provide the actual console log, but I searched the entire ns2 folder for a .log file and apparently there isn't one.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

<i>Script.Load("lua/Class.lua")</i>
This will allow you to use Class_ReplaceMethod()

*Facepalm*
Yes. That might help. Much obliged, Motig. I didn't know it needed another lua file to be loaded. (Though I had a feeling it'd be something small. The irritating ones always are.)
Thanks also to Double_hex who, once again, was quick to message me when he saw this thread and point out my problem as well.
