#1

Hello everyone, i have my game and this error, im not sure what it means or how to fix it, like the game/script works normally, but its annoying seeing this error message in the output. Any ideas on a solution?

Picture of the error:

ERROR
ERROR1021×976 144 KB

this is the script (the second part of the script is to play a sound based on proximity of the killer to the survivor):

--** Does stuff for when the player is in danger

--// Services
local Players: Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Run: RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

--// Instances
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer

--// Fields
local Update = os.time()
local UpdateRate = 1 -- Chase update rate 
local ChaseRange = 60
local ChaseFade = false

--// Connections
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character: Model)
	local Humanoid: Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	script.LowHealth:Stop()
	script.Chase:Stop()
	Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(health: number)
		if Player.IsCurse.Value == false then
			if health <= Humanoid.MaxHealth / 2 then
				Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://8750913972" -- Limping animation ID
				script.LowHealth:Play()
			else
				Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://913376220"
				script.LowHealth:Stop()
			end
		end
	end)
	Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
		script.LowHealth:Stop()
		script.Chase:Stop()
	end)
end)

Run:BindToRenderStep("Chase", Enum.RenderPriority.Last.Value, function()
	local Players: {Instance} = Players:GetPlayers()
	for i = 1, #Players do
		if Players[i]:FindFirstChild("IsCurse") and Players[i].IsCurse.Value and Players[i] ~= Player then
			local Curse = Players[i]
			if Curse.Character.PrimaryPart then
				if (Curse.Character.PrimaryPart.Position-Player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude <= ChaseRange and not script.Chase.Playing then
					ChaseFade = false
					script.Chase.Volume = 3
					script.Chase:Play()
				elseif (Curse.Character.PrimaryPart.Position-Player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position).Magnitude > ChaseRange and script.Chase.Playing then
					ChaseFade = true
					task.spawn(function()
						for i = 1, 0, -0.1 do task.wait(1 / 10)
							if not ChaseFade then break end
							script.Chase.Volume = i
						end
						script.Chase:Stop()
						ChaseFade = false
					end)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

Any help would be appreciated, me and my friend are stuck on this.

Can you send me the line that is mentioned in the error?

#3

Line 44 so if (Curse.Character.PrimaryPart.Pos) etc

#4

Does PrimaryPart instance exist? Or does Curse have a character?

The RunService:BindToRenderStep() is run when your HumanoidRootPart hasn’t loaded yet. Try this:

--** Does stuff for when the player is in danger

--// Services
local Players: Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Run: RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

--// Instances
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Hum_RT = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

--// Fields
local Update = os.time()
local UpdateRate = 1 -- Chase update rate 
local ChaseRange = 60
local ChaseFade = false

--// Connections
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character: Model)
	local Humanoid: Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	script.LowHealth:Stop()
	script.Chase:Stop()
	Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(health: number)
		if Player.IsCurse.Value == false then
			if health <= Humanoid.MaxHealth / 2 then
				Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://8750913972" -- Limping animation ID
				script.LowHealth:Play()
			else
				Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://913376220"
				script.LowHealth:Stop()
			end
		end
	end)
	Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
		script.LowHealth:Stop()
		script.Chase:Stop()
	end)
end)

Run:BindToRenderStep("Chase", Enum.RenderPriority.Last.Value, function()
	local Players: {Instance} = Players:GetPlayers()
	for i = 1, #Players do
		if Players[i]:FindFirstChild("IsCurse") and Players[i].IsCurse.Value and Players[i] ~= Player then
			local Curse = Players[i]
                        local char = Curse.Character or Curse.CharacterAdded:Wait()
                        local hum_rt = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
			if hum_rt  then
				if (hum_rt .Position-Hum_RT .Position).Magnitude <= ChaseRange and not script.Chase.Playing then
					ChaseFade = false
					script.Chase.Volume = 3
					script.Chase:Play()
				elseif (hum_rt .Position-Hum_RT .Position).Magnitude > ChaseRange and script.Chase.Playing then
					ChaseFade = true
					task.spawn(function()
						for i = 1, 0, -0.1 do task.wait(1 / 10)
							if not ChaseFade then break end
							script.Chase.Volume = i
						end
						script.Chase:Stop()
						ChaseFade = false
					end)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

Please note that I have not tested this code.

#6

You can check if Player.Character ~= nil then or you can use the event as @FunAsiK did.

#7

The primarypart is the humanoidrootpart of the monster/curse. And yes it has a character

#8

when trying out your code, the error no longer shows in the output but the Chase music no longer plays when the monster is near. No error.
