I'm Confused on this

Hey developers!

I’m confused on this line here which it keeps doing a error.

But i’m gonna put a function too because it requires a function to work properly

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.DropBackpackItem.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(user,dropeverything,item)
	if dropeverything == true then
		for i,v in pairs(game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerBackpacks[user.Name]:GetChildren()) do
			v.Parent = workspace
			v.CFrame = user.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
		end
	else
		local CItem = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerBackpacks[user.Name][item]
		CItem.Parent = workspace
		CItem.CFrame = user.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
	end
end)

The line that causes the error is

local CItem = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerBackpacks[user.Name][item]

edit:
i’ve tried so much stuff that i didn’t find the solution for it.

edit 2: forgot to tell that it works with this line here:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)

local NewFolder = Instance.new("Folder")

NewFolder.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerBackpacks

NewFolder.Name = plr.Name

end)

Is the parameter Item a string or instance.

3

Its an instance. I will make some type of backpack

4

But i’m making when it dies it drops everything. I guess the if statement checks the else for if its not true…

5

If dropeverything is false or nil it will run the else statement.

6

Yeah but the problem rn is the line showing on this post

Do you have any solution to it?

try
game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerBackpacks[user.Name][item.Name]

What is the error you are getting.

9

ServerScriptService.Script:18: invalid argument #2 (string expected, got boolean)

10

that didnt work, causing this:

ServerScriptService.Script:18: attempt to index boolean with ‘Name’

11

Try printing the item parameter. Tell me what you get.

12

What does user parameter print and the item parameter print.

13

the user parameter prints the username

the item parameter doesn’t print anything doing a error

14

What arguments do you send to the server from the local script.

What your local script code.

15

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.DropBackpackItem:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer,true)

end)

16

also contains the Humanoid.Died thing

17

you dont have to have game.Players.LocalPlayer as a argument roblox sends it on its own.

try
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.DropBackpackItem:FireServer(true)
