I'm getting the error message in the picture shown, with this lua code. what am i doing wrong
function()
local gold = GetTradePlayerItemInfo(7)
if gold ~= nil and gold > 0 then
local message = "Thanks for the trade! You gave me " .. gold .. " gold!"
SendChatMessage(message, "SAY")
end
end

Init doesn't expect a function.
It wouldn't run when you have trade open though so the fix wouldn't be to get it working properly in Init

what would i have to do to fix it
cloud perch
You need to use a custom trigger, running on the relevant events

i made a custom trigger no lua errors but when i did the action it didnt work
cloud perch
Ensure it's running when you need it to. Use the correct event(s) and add prints to see how far the code gets

If you want this aura to work in the open world you can't use the "SAY" chat channel
"SAY" and "YELL" are only useable inside instances

would i have to create an add on then?
keen pumice
no you can respond to events with custom triggers
