How do i make this work?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I tried using it, and it gave me this error:

local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")

local function baseplateturn(degrees)
	tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,TweenInfo.new(5,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0),{Orientation = Vector3.new(0,degrees,0)}):Play()
end

local chaosfunctions = {
	["Base180"] = baseplateturn(180),
	["Base90"] = baseplateturn(90)
}

while true do
	wait(15)
	local functionrandom = math.random(1,2)
	local yeah = chaosfunctions[functionrandom]
	yeah()
end
#2

Try this

local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")
local function baseplateturn(degrees)
    tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,TweenInfo.new(5,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0),{Orientation = Vector3.new(0,degrees,0)}):Play()
end

local chaosfunctions = {
    ["Base180"] = baseplateturn(180),
    ["Base90"] = baseplateturn(90)
}

local Names = {}
for Name in pairs(chaosfunctions) do
    table.insert(Names,Name)
end

while true do
    wait(15)
    local functionrandom = Names[math.random(1,2)]
    local yeah = chaosfunctions[functionrandom]
    yeah()
end
#3

It just gave me this: image

You could consider this.

local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")

local function baseplateTurn(degrees)
	tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,
		TweenInfo.new(5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0, false, 0),
		{["CFrame"] = workspace.Baseplate.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(degrees), 0)}
	):Play()
end

local chaosData = {
	["Base180"] = 180,
	["Base90"] = 90
}

local function getRandom()
	local tab = {}
	for i,v in pairs(chaosData) do
		table.insert(tab, {Name = i, Value = v})
	end
	return tab[math.random(1, #tab)]
end

while true do
	local random = getRandom()
	if random then
		baseplateTurn(random.Value)
	end
	wait(15)
end
#5

But i’m not just gonna use the Baseplate turn, i’m going to add other events.

#6

Ah, lemme edit then. One second.

#7

Try this.

local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")

local function baseplateTurn(degrees)
	tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,
		TweenInfo.new(5, Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0, false, 0),
		{["CFrame"] = workspace.Baseplate.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(degrees), 0)}
	):Play()
end

local chaosData = {
	["Base180"] = {
		Function = baseplateTurn,
		Data = 180
	},
	["Base90"] = {
		Function = baseplateTurn,
		Data = 90
	}
}

local function getRandom()
	local tab = {}
	for i,v in pairs(chaosData) do
		table.insert(tab, {Name = i, Data = v})
	end
	return tab[math.random(1, #tab)]
end

while true do
	local random = getRandom()
	if random then
		random.Data.Function(random.Data.Data)
	end
	wait(15)
end
#8

Would this work?

local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")
local function baseplateturn(degrees)
	tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,TweenInfo.new(5,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0),{Orientation = Vector3.new(0,degrees,0)}):Play()
end

local chaosfunctions = {
	["baseplateturn90"] = {["Function"] = baseplateturn, ["Values"] = {90}},
	["baseplateturn180"] = {["Function"] = baseplateturn, ["Values"] = {180}}
}

while true do
	wait(15)
	local randomthing = math.random(1,2)
	local functionrandom = chaosfunctions[randomthing]
	functionrandom.Function(functionrandom.Values)
end
#9

The error means that you are attempting to call something that does not exist make sure that the names in the explorer are the same as the script.

#10

What do you mean by that? I am trying to call a function, not a object in the explorer.

#11 
local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")

local function baseplateturn(degrees)
	tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,TweenInfo.new(5,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0),{Orientation = Vector3.new(0,degrees,0)}):Play()
end

while true do
	wait(15)
	local functionrandom = math.random(1,2)
	if functionrandom = 1 then
        baseplateturn(90)
    else
        baseplateturn(180)
    end
end

Try this. If it doesn’t work, tell me and send the output message.

#12

If I’m correct, the error was that you were firing the functions already in the table before the script had a change to run, after the function ran it removed itself from the table which made it look like you were accessing a nil object. These other ideas people are giving you should help you with your problem, I’m just explaining what happened.

#13

And also, we are here to answer your question, and not tutor you. So please don’t ask people to change their scripts to what you want.

#14

The error means something in the script does not exist. For example, I have a model called “Test” and I call it “test” in the script. It will not recognize that you are trying to call the same thing. I would need to change the name to “Test” instead of “test”.

#15

I don’t think you understand the gist of this post, it’s not something in workspace it’s a function. He is only accessing Baseplate which never gets deleted in the script. A function in a table is appearing nil so that’s another reason why that error could occur.

Yes, but when I program things and I get that error it usually means I messed up in workspace, and/or in the function. I believe it may be both. Which is what I was trying to say. (Sorry if I was not clear, I hope this helps)

Try this maybe:
local tweenservice = game:GetService(“TweenService”)

local function baseplateturn(degrees)
tweenservice:Create(workspace.Baseplate,TweenInfo.new(5,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.InOut,0,false,0),{Orientation = Vector3.new(0,degrees,0)}):Play()
end

local chaosfunctions = {
[“Base180”] = baseplateturn(180),
[“Base90”] = baseplateturn(90)
}

while true do
wait(15)
local functionrandom = math.random(0,#chaosfunctions)
local yeah = chaosfunctions[functionrandom]
yeah()
end
