u Should Get Character like this

Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

He can’t do that without a LocalScript.

The easiest way is inside of a Script of StarterCharacterScripts, as script.Parent is LITERALLY the character.

In relations to finding the Player by name using this, you can just use the new variable LocalPlayer.

Yeah ur right

local Character = script.Parent

will be enough

Not for what we’re doing there, we need a variable to use in a recursive call to get the Player’s name.

That’s what the FindFirstChild or WaitForChild is for.
