Lua errors & Ragdoll stuck on Z axis
I'm currently experiencing two problems with this tool:
  1. The lua errors that basically everyone is reporting; it goes like so:
    [Ragdoll Mover] lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:286: attempt to index a nil value
    1. SetBoneOffsets - lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:286
    2. SetOffsets - lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:304
    3. Think - lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/ragdollmover.lua:183
    4. unknown - gamemodes/sandbox/entities/weapons/gmod_tool/shared.lua:197
  2. A new bug that hasn't been reported yet: when I try to pose some ragdolls with this tool, they get stuck on the Z axis, you can see it here. I can only move the ragdoll up and down and by clicking the mousehweel, left and right. When I switch to a different weapon and then back to the toolgun, it still hasn't been fixed. When I click on a different tool and then go back to the ragdoll mover, the problem still happens. The error that it gives in the console is:
    [Ragdoll Mover] lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:286: attempt to index a nil value
    1. SetBoneOffsets - lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:286
    2. SetOffsets - lua/autorun/ragdollmover.lua:304
    3. Think - lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/ragdollmover.lua:183
    4. unknown - gamemodes/sandbox/entities/weapons/gmod_tool/shared.lua:197
    The only fix there is right now is to undo or remove the ragdoll.
    I've had this happen with a few models, I can't recall which ones exactly. But the one on the screenshot has problems with the ragdoll mover, and comes from this addon. I don't have this problem with ragdolls that use Valve's default skeleton, but when I use this tool on non-Valve skeletons it tends to break (Not in all cases.)

    I'm aware of the fact that there hasn't been much news on this page for now, but I haven't seen any reports about this yet. And yes, I'm aware that a 2.0 version is supposedly in the making. I'm putting this here because it's obviously a bannable offense to bump threads on Facepunch, and it's not worth to create a new forum thread there because of one tool.
