I’m getting this error on line 55 and I’m not sure how to fix it, some help would be appreciated.

The Error: Players.King09838.PlayerScripts.RainScript:55: attempt to index nil with ‘Touched’

Script:

local Rain = require(script.Rain)
local SoundService = game:GetService("SoundService")
Rain:SetSoundId(script.SoundIdInside.Value)

Rain:SetColor(Color3.fromRGB(script.Color.Value.x, script.Color.Value.y, script.Color.Value.z))
Rain:SetDirection(script.Direction.Value)

You mind pointing out where line 55 is??

#3

It means the script is unable to find the variable SoundPart resulting it to be nil. Are you sure the reference to the object is correct and everything?

#4

This is line 55 SoundPart.Touched:Connect(function(hit)

#5

Yeah its correct but there used to be an error on this line local SoundPart = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(“SoundPart”) that said SoundPart wasn’t a valid member of workspace when it literally was.

#6

Use WaitForChild instead of FindFirstChild

#7

nope I still got the same error

#8

Im not too sure what the issue could be but it could be that the client cannot access the object for some reason perhaps streaming enabled is on?

#9

I’ve always gotten errors when using the and statements, so I suggest just using a separate if then if then statement. Basically replacing this

SoundPart.TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent and hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") then
		if Rain:Disable() then
			-- Player touched the SoundPart while the rain is enabled
			isTouching = false
			SoundService:StopLocalSound(script.SoundIdInside.Value)
		end
	end
end)

into this

SoundPart.TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent then 
		if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") then
			if Rain:Disable() then
				-- Player touched the SoundPart while the rain is enabled
				isTouching = false
				SoundService:StopLocalSound(script.SoundIdInside.Value)
			end
		end
	end
end)
