Argument 1 missing or nil

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I have this remote event that fires if the dummy exists, and applys the players description to it, I send the humanoid, temparary description and the players actualy description. But, I get the error argument 1 missing or nil.

Local Script:

local Dummy = Frame.ViewportFrame[" "]
local Humanoid = Dummy.Humanoid
local PlayerDescription = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(LocalPlayer.UserId)
local TempDescription = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(1)

if Dummy then
ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvents").ApplyDescription:FireServer(Humanoid , TempDescription , PlayerDescription)
end

Server:

Event16.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player , HumanoidToApplyTo , TempDescription , PlayerDescription)

HumanoidToApplyTo:ApplyDescription(TempDescription)
HumanoidToApplyTo:ApplyDescription(PlayerDescription)

end)

Any help would be appriciated, thanks!

What line does it say missing or nil?

#3

This line says missing or nil.

#4

Try debugging by printing TempDescription on the client, if it’s nil then it’s failing to get the humanoid description.

#5

It doesn’t print nil, it prints HumanoidDescription

#6

Also it looks like you’re using the function GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId by putting a 1 in the parameters, is that supposed yield anything?

Ok now try printing things on the Server side of things

#7

Why is TempDiscription used? I see you change it to the player one instantly, no need to have it.

#8

It prints nil for the server side, but I think I have an idea to fix it.

Would this be a good idea?

Event16.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player , HumanoidToApplyTo)

local PlayerDescription = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(player.UserId)
local TempDescription = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(1)

HumanoidToApplyTo:ApplyDescription(TempDescription)
HumanoidToApplyTo:ApplyDescription(PlayerDescription)

end)

The character loads weirdly with apply description, the hats are in the wrong positions, but when I use a temp description then change it to the players descriptions the player’s hats load propely
