Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all: local meta = minetest.env:get_meta(pos) local inv = meta:get_inventory() for i=1,4 do local item_stack=inv:get_stack("items", i) local item_table=item_stack:to_table() if item_table[name] == itemname then

This returns me that item_table is nil and i can't understrand why.

Can anyone help me?

You may solve the problem by putting

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all: print(dump([variable]))

after each defintion of a variable.

Can you post the entire error message (only the "LUA ERROR" part).

I believe this is the line that is causing problems.
It sould be:

Code: Select all: if item_table.name == itemname then
