dvar not working after reopening menu

[Ni3ls]

Hi all,

I made a menu where u can select killstreaks (for example)
When I open the menu the first time, the error is shown in the menu via a dvar

self setClientCvar("warn",warn);

But when I close the menu and open it again, the warning is not shown in the menu. I first thought it was some script error, but I added an iprint aswell so I could check the console.
It DOES show the correct warning in the iprintln in the console.

			iprintln("Response: "+response+"/nWarn: "+warn);

			self setClientCvar("warn",warn); 
			wait 0.5;
			self setClientCvar("warn","");

How is it possible that after reopening a menu and not doing anything else, the dvar stops working?

handleperk(response)
{
	self setClientCvar("perk_warn","");
	//showdvars of perks ["0" is for locked perk, "1" is for unlocked perk, "2" is for unlocked + selected perk]
	warn="";
	if(response == "perk1")
	{
		if(self.rank <5)
		{	
			warn=level.rankwarn[int(self.lang)];
		}

		else if(self.perkselect == 0 && self.perk1 == 0)
		{
			self.perk1=1;
			self.perkselect =1;
			self setClientCvar("dvar_perk_1","2");
			warn="Select perk1: "+self.perk1+ " , Selected: "+self.perkselect;
		}
		else if(self.perk1 == 1)
		{
			self.perk1=0;
			self.perkselect =0;
			self setClientCvar("dvar_perk_1","1");
			warn="Deselect perk1: "+self.perk1+ " , Selected: "+self.perkselect;
		}

		else if(self.perkselect == 1)
		{
			warn="Deselect first , Selected: "+self.perkselect;
		}
			iprintln("Response: "+response+"/nWarn: "+warn);

			self setClientCvar("perk_warn",warn); 
			wait 0.5;
			self setClientCvar("perk_warn","");
		
	}

The other dvar is working correctly with showing the images

Im seeing you set the warn var but not pushing it to the dvar/cvar in all ifs(). Could that be the issue?

[Ni3ls]

What do you mean? The warn is when u click on perk1 in the perkmenu. Depending on the "if" it will tell you the warning

[IzNoGoD]

can you show a log of the iprintln(response) at the start of this function and a iprintln(response + "done") at the end
Include desired behaviour and observed behaviour

any results?

[Ni3ls]

any results?

Maybe a dumb question, but i dont understand where I should place them?
And the dvar for the images does work, which is

self setClientCvar("dvar_perk_1",value);

Dont really understand where to place them. Inside the if's?

[randall]

After you hit the perk button, press shift+0, find something similar to "Response: "+response+"/nWarn: "+warn" and paste here what the game printed. Maybe you can put another iprintln before the "if" to make sure the script is runs.
Oh, and comment or delete these two lines:

		wait 0.5;
self setClientCvar("perk_warn",""); 
	

I think there is no man in the world who can read the warn message in half second.
