yet another list issue

[cobalt roost]

am i stupid, why doesn't my list have any values again

on pick up:
    set {_item} to namespacedkey of event-item
    set {_worth} to {-loot::drop_value_map::%{_item}%::worth}
    set {_currency} to {-loot::drop_value_map::%{_item}%::currency}
    
    broadcast {-loot::drop_value_map::%{_item}%::currency} # displays properly
    
    stop if {_currency} is not set
    
    add {_worth} to {stats::%uuid of player%::%{_currency}%}
    
    play sound "entity.experience_orb.pickup" with volume 0.5 and pitch 2 at event-location for all players
    
    updateActionBar(player, {_worth}, {_currency})
    updateScoreboard(player)
    
    broadcast {-loot::virtual_drops::*} # doesn't display in chat
    
    stop if {-loot::virtual_drops::*} does not contain event-item # nothing happens at all below this line
    
    wait 1 tick
    remove event-item from player

here are the functions responsible for registering items and marking virtual

function lt_registerDrop(table: string, drop: item, weight: integer, set_virtual: boolean, is_unique: boolean = false):
    add {_weight} to {-loot::%{_table}%::weights::*}
    
    add {_drop} to {-loot::%{_table}%::drops::*}
    add {_drop} to {-loot::%{_table}%::unique_drops::*} if {_is_unique} is true
    add {_drop} to {-loot::global_drops::*} if {-loot::global_drops::*} does not contain {_drop}
    
     lt_setVirtual({_drop}) if {_set_virtual} is true
     
function lt_setVirtual(drop: item):
    add {_drop} to {-loot::virtual_drops::*} if {-loot::virtual_drops::*} does not contain {_drop}

and here is where items are registered

on load:
    clear {-loot::*}
    
    # redundant drops ommitted for clarity
    lt_registerDrop("small_pot", gold_nugget, 22, true)
    lt_registerDrop("large_pot", gold_nugget, 180, true)
    lt_registerDrop("zombie", gold_nugget, 28, true)
    lt_registerDrop("skeleton", gold_nugget, 28, true)
    
    lt_setDropRange("small_pot", 1, 3)
    lt_setDropRange("large_pot", 5, 9)
    lt_setDropRange("zombie", 3, 7)
    lt_setDropRange("skeleton", 3, 7)
    
    lt_setVirtualItemWorth("tokens", gold_nugget, 1)

but like, when i pick up a gold nugget it doesnt remove it from my inventory

clearly my function lt_registerDrop registers the item into the loot tables and marks it virtual but like my virtual items list just doesnt exist at all for some reason

my bad for trying to use skript as an actual programming language 💔

[cobalt roost]

i just fixed it bruh

[craggy steppe]

Great

[cobalt roost]

it doesnt even give me indentation errors in chat

i would have caught this if it did

[midnight folio]

it does give indention errors

the parser gives them fine
