Why do Addons return as individual arrays? Where as query all records returns a normal array?

jimmy

players_in is an addon where are all_players is a query all records.

You can see by the additional [] in players_in that it is storing all the records from the addon in their own array.

Why is this and how do I fix it?

I need players_in to output the same as all_players

hey @jimmy - it looks like you want your Addon to be a return type of single instead of list. It looks like you are doing an Addon from a list (array) of table references. Since each item in the list represents a single player, your return type should reflect that to be single in this case. Try it out and let me know if that works!

Hey Micheal, thanks so much for this!! Real life saver.

Out of interest, in what situation would I use the list addon then? It seems quite a confusing ui naming it a list as I had a list of players so it seemed like the right option.
