Kick off of seat script not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

For some reason my script that kicks people off the seat is not working the script is in the seat.
code:

script.Parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
	local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Occupant.Parent.Name)
	print(player.Name)
		local human = script.Parent.Occupant
		script.Parent.SeatWeld:Destroy()
		human.Sit = false
end)

attempt to index nil with parent

I believe you have to make a check to see if there’s a value in Occupant, since even if it changes to nil, it will still activate the event. So you’d have to do

script.Parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
	if script.Parent.Occupant then
		local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Occupant.Parent.Name)
		print(player.Name)
		local human = script.Parent.Occupant
		script.Parent.SeatWeld:Destroy()
		human.Sit = false
	end
end)

This should hopefulyl work as if there’s nothing in Occupant, nothing will get ran

Still does not work also the players name is not getting printed even if they are actually sitting in the chair. I don’t think the function is even getting ran.

Maybe it’s

local seat = script.Parent

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
	local hum = seat.Occupant
	if hum then
		local char = hum.Parent
		local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
		print(player.Name)
		seat.SeatWeld:Destroy()
		hum.Sit = false
	end
end)

Try this out, haven’t tested but hopefully you can

local seat = script.Parent

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Occupant"):Connect(function()
	if not seat.Occupant then return end
	local character = seat.Occupant.Parent
	
	local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		wait(0.1)
		humanoid.Sit = false
		humanoid.Jump = true
	end
end)
