Module Script: Finding Character

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

I’m trying to find the character so I know what the player is holding, however, my module script isn’t finding the character as it considers it as null.
I have another server script which calls for the module, and that is needed so everyone sees the gate moving.

Module Script:

local GateModule = {}

-- Cl
local clearance = {
	"[CCI] CID - III",
	"[CCI] CID - IV",
	"[CCI] CID - V",
	"[CCI] Combative Card",
	"[GOI] CID - III",
}

local HackClearance = {
	"Hacking Device III",
	"Hacking Device IV",
}

local PH = {
	"[CCI] CID - 0",
	"[CCI] CID - I",
	"[CCI] CID - II",
	"[GOI] CID - II",
	"Hacking Device II",
}

function GateModule.EventInspection(player,Refuse,CountBool,Prompt1,Prompt2,Prompt1e,Prompt2e,Accept,Light1,Light2,Sound,TOpen,Bool,TClose)
	local Character = player.Character
	for _, item in pairs(Character:GetDescendants()) do
		if table.find(clearance, item.Name) then
			if Bool.Value == true then
				CountBool.Value = true
				Prompt1.Enabled = false
				Prompt2.Enabled = false
				Prompt1e.Enabled = false
				Prompt2e.Enabled = false
				Accept:Play()
				Light1.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")

You’re missing the player parameter when defining the functions.

local function AcessHandler(player)
	GateModule.EventInspection(player,Refuse,CountBool,Prompt1,Prompt2,Prompt1e,Prompt2e,Accept,Light1,Light2,Sound,TOpen,Bool,TClose)
end

local function HackHandler(player)
	GateModule.HackInspection(player,Refuse,CountBool,Prompt1,Prompt2,Prompt1e,Prompt2e,Accept,Light1,Light2,Sound,TOpen,Bool,TClose)
end

Try with these ^

Sorry for long response but I was in my portuguese class, that fixed my problem. Never noticed that I’ve missed the player in these functions. Thank you.
