modules and nil function parameters

[Joe Andresen <joe.andresen@...>]

i have a script that uses a couple modules.

require "Core.Camera.FreeCamera"

require "Core.GameState"

MainState = Core.GameState.GameState()

local T = Core.Camera.FreeCamera.FreeCamera(0,0,-35)

T:setActive(T.ID)

MainState.addCamera(T)

c = T.getObjectType()

print(c .." No worries" )

Camera works fine, but GameState is suspect.... when i pass the camera (T) into the function addCamera and step in it with the debugger, it becomes nil.

Is there something about environments in modules that i am missing?

here is what the gamestate module looks like.

local _G = _G

module(...)

local M = {}

M = _G.Class()

GameState = M

function M:__constructor()

    

    -- Array of Cameras, 0 is default?

    self.Cameras = {}

end

-- the following are getters and adders for the respective objects stored by the game state

function M:getCamera(id)

    return self.Cameras[id]

end

function M:addCamera(camera) --this is nil.. what the heck?

    self.Cameras[camera.getID()] = camera

end

thanks for any help!
