Module Require Error

[astraIboy (The Batman)]

So I am requiring my module in a server script and everytime I test the game it gives me these errors any ideas whats going on?

First lines of the module

--Variables
local tweenservice = game:GetService("TweenService")
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = plr.Character
local humrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local MMFolder = game.Workspace.MM
local Swish = game.Workspace.MMSounds.Open

Where I require the module

Are you using a server script to require the module? If so you get this because LocalPlayer is nil to the server.

This is my first time responding on here so please bare with me.

Require is a function in Lua (which is also an entity/element within the _G table), it loads the given module(usually the first argument). The first step it carries out is to check whether or not the module is loaded into a table referred to as package.loaded(don’t worry about this). If it is, it simply returns the value stored in the table. I don’t want to get into what happens if it doesn’t find it(it may confuse you as a beginner). Remember that require requires a module in order to proceed/access it’s contents.

If you want to access another module/file just use require.

BTW: Don’t confuse require with dofile(), even though they both load and execute Lua files, they behave differently. For now just stick to require

OP is indeed giving require a reference to a ModuleScript. It is an issue within the code of it

[astraIboy (The Batman)]

Yes Im using a server script to require the module, but I need to use a function inside of the Module script

You need to use a local script if you want to use LocalPlayer.
