#1

Hi!
My script ere should delete a script in the player’s character, but I don’t know how to define the player.
Thanks for any help!

local sound = script.Parent.Parent.ImageLabel.Intro
local btn = script.Parent
local fade = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.fadeLoad
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name
btn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	for i = 1,500 do
		wait (0.01)
		sound.Volume -= 0.01
		fade.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.01
	end
	sound:Pause()
	game.Workspace.HowToIndex.CutsceneScript:Destroy()
	for i = 1, 100 do
		wait (0.01)
		fade.BackgroundTransparency += 0.01
	end
end)

Is this script we see the actual script?

#3

Yes, Unfinished because I ran into this issue.

#4

If you need to delete the script, you can refer to the script the code is running in by doing script.

so like this:

script:Destroy()

#5

I know script:Destroy(), i need to know how to index the LocalPlayer’s character in workspace

#6

(say plr is a variable containing the local player)

do

plr.Character

#7

So game.Workspace.plr.Character.CutsceneScript:Destroy()?

#8

You can just do

plr.Character:WaitForChild("CutsceneScript"):Destroy()

It’ll get the player model automatically.

@goofylamb83 MouseButton1Click has no parameters. You can just define the player with LocalPlayer

#9

do a little bit of this yeah

btn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
	local character = player.Character
    character.YourScriptNameHere:Destroy() -- whatever the name of your script is
end)

OR you can do this

wait(0.1)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character

btn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
    character.YourScriptNameHere:Destroy() -- whatever the name of your script is
end)
#10

No. you don’t get the player like that.

#11

When does this code run? Does it run immediately after the game starts?

	plr.Character:WaitForChild("CutsceneScript"):Destroy()
	for i = 1, 100 do
		wait (0.01)
		fade.BackgroundTransparency += 0.01
	end
end)

It runs when you click the button…

btn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
#14

tiny error in your plr variable. this should work

local sound = script.Parent.Parent.ImageLabel.Intro
local btn = script.Parent
local fade = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.fadeLoad
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
btn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	for i = 1,500 do
		wait (0.01)
		sound.Volume -= 0.01
		fade.BackgroundTransparency -= 0.01
	end
	sound:Pause()
	plr.Character:WaitForChild("CutsceneScript"):Destroy()
	for i = 1, 100 do
		wait (0.01)
		fade.BackgroundTransparency += 0.01
	end
end)
#15

Because you have just done

You don’t need to use Name here.

How would I readjust the Camera to Player, since the cutscene is using the camera?
After I stop, it kind of just gets stuck.

Did you mean the camera type? If so, you can just add this into your local script after the last for loop.

for i = 1, 100 do
	wait (0.01)
	fade.BackgroundTransparency += 0.01
end
workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
