Property choice that returns string not index

[Rick]

What is the PROPERTY_ constant that returns the string and not the index again? I've used PROPERTY_CHOICE and PROPERTY_CHOICEEDIT and they both seem to return "0" instead of the string that I put in the drop down list.

CHOICEEDIT returns the string... you may need to update though... 2.4 at one point had a bug with CHOICEEDIT...http://leadwerks.com/werkspace/index.php?/tracker/issue-132-script-issue-with-latest-editor/

That didn't seem to help.

 

Maybe I'm doing something wrong in my Lua file. Here is what I have.

 

When I find this entity in code and have:

 

string cls = GetEntityKey(ent, "class", "");

 

it's returning "0"

 

require("scripts/class")

local class=CreateClass(...)

function class:InitDialog(grid)
self.super:InitDialog(grid)

group=grid:FindGroup( "Class" )
group:AddProperty("class",PROPERTY_CHOICEEDIT,"Assassin,Paladin,Knight,Wizard","Class Type")
end

function class:CreateObject(model)
local object=self.super:CreateObject(model)

function object:SetKey(key,value)
	if key=="" then

	else
		return self.super:SetKey(key,value)
	end
	return 1
end

function object:GetKey(key,value)
	if key=="" then

	else
		return self.super:GetKey(key,value)
	end
	return value
end
end
