essentially with this, I was hoping to make a respawn function where if the character is ready and they die in battle they get respawned with the same character they chose previously. It works so far but why isn’t it giving it the clothes. It just gives the tool and clears characters appearance
local function bulid (player, char, value)
player:ClearCharacterAppearance()
if char.Head:FindFirstChild("face") then
char.Head.face:Destroy()
end
wait(0.3)
local charactertoswapfolder = game.ReplicatedStorage.Characters:FindFirstChild(value)
if charactertoswapfolder then
for i, swapclothing in pairs(charactertoswapfolder:GetChildren()) do
if swapclothing:IsA("Shirt") or swapclothing:IsA("Pants") or swapclothing:IsA("Accessory") or swapclothing:IsA("Hat") then
swapclothing:Clone().Parent = char
end
end
for i, tools in pairs(charactertoswapfolder:GetChildren()) do
if tools:IsA("Tool") then
tools:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end
end
end
end
local function spawnin (player)
local spawns = game.Workspace.Spawns:GetChildren()
if game.ServerStorage.SERVER.Value == "GAME" then
local randomSpawn = spawns[math.random(1, #spawns)]
if player.PSD.ready.Value == true then
player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(randomSpawn.Position)
player.PSD.status.Value = "ingame"
end
end
end
game:GetService('Players').PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
wait(6)
if player.PSD.ready.Value == true and game.ServerStorage.SERVER.Value == "GAME" then
bulid(player, character, player.PSD.chosen.Value)
spawnin(player)
end
end)
end)
end)
Is it possible you could provide an image of the “charactertoswapfolder” contents?
If the tools are being given, it means that this section of the code is the issue:
It’s possible that there may be something wrong with the setup of the folder. If not, then I’m unsure what could be the issue unless ClearCharacterAppearance is somehow being called after the new clothes are applied.
There’s nothing wrong with this setup, so that doesn’t seem to be the problem. Have you tested applying the clothes and accessories to yourself directly? There may be some sort of asset errors.
If this isn’t the case, it may have to do with the ‘char’ variable. Is the face successfully destroyed?
I think I see the issue. bulid() is sending the character who died as an argument instead of the new character being loaded. The other parts of the function use player as a reference, not char. To fix this, you can actually just remove the ‘char’ variable from the arguments and redefine it within the bulid function as this:
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
This will either find the character right away or it will wait for the character to load in. It should fix your script because it will find the correct character to modify.
On an unrelated note, I advise against using ‘char’ as a variable. While it didn’t break your script, char is a built-in string function (string.char) and it’s not really the most efficient to use function names as variable names. Nothing you necessarily need to worry about, but just some friendly advice.
