Issue with table

[liquidbase]

Hey to all!

I am currently in the process to implement a direction indicator for the raid frames from DuffedUI, which builds on an existing script.

pointer.lua

The pointer works properly, without this leading to a Lua error. The problem with this script is now that my Click2Cast plugin throws out an error that I do not quite understand.

clickcast.lua

Without the pointer, there is no error.

Lua error:

4x DuffedUI-7.993\modules\plugins\clickcast.lua:45: table index is nil
DuffedUI-7.993\modules\plugins\clickcast.lua:45: in function <DuffedUI\modules\plugins\clickcast.lua:45>
<in C code>
DuffedUI-7.993\modules\plugins\pointer.lua:7: in main chunk
 
Locals:
(*temporary) = <unnamed> {
 0 = <userdata>
}
(*temporary) = <function> defined =[C]:-1
 = <function> defined =[C]:-1
 = <function> defined @Interface\AddOns\DuffedUI\modules\plugins\clickcast.lua:45

Maybe someone can help. Thanks in advance for any ideas and help.

Your script doesn't check for frames without a name.
If no name is passed, it will fail at

ClickCastFrames[_G[name]] = true

[liquidbase]

The interesting thing here is that both scripts continue to work correctly despite the error. If I give a name to the pointer, while the pointer works but not the Click2Cast. And if I delete the "SecureUnitButtonTemplate", the error disappears but the pointer no longer works.

Solved, after a helping TS-conversation with humfras. Removed UIParent and the template and give the frame a name.
