Hello! I am trying to make a car spawning script, but
It gives me this error:
image

game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.SpawnCar.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, car)
	local pscripts = plr.PlayerScripts
	if pscripts.SpawnedCar.Value == true then
		plr:Kick("Exploit Detected.")
	end
	if car.Name == "PorscheButton" then
		local scar = game.ServerStorage.Cars.Porsche:Clone()
		local rootpart = plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart
		scar.Parent = workspace
		scar:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(rootpart.CFrame)
		scar.Name = plr.Name.. "sCar"
		plr.PlayerScripts.SpawnedCar.Value = true
	end
end)

that’s the serverscript

and this is the localscript:

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerScripts.SpawnedCar.Value == false then
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.SpawnCar:FireServer(script.Parent)
	end
end)

PlayerScripts does not exist on server-side. It only exists on client-side if I remember correctly.

Oh. My bad!
I thought it would work because i thought that in the server’s pov it has access to every single game file.
i’ll try to change the SpawnedCar booleanvalue’s parent to the player’s character.

While the main copy of the script exists in StarterPlayerScripts, the running copy only exists in the client context in the PlayerScripts folder.
I would recommend using an array to store which car each player owns, for example:

local playerVehicles = {}
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.SpawnCar.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, car)
	if playerVehicles[plr.Name] ~= nil then
		plr:Kick("Exploit Detected.")
	end
	if car.Name == "PorscheButton" then
		local scar = game.ServerStorage.Cars.Porsche:Clone()
		local rootpart = plr.Character.HumanoidRootPart
		scar.Parent = workspace
		scar:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(rootpart.CFrame)
		scar.Name = plr.Name.. "sCar"
		playerVehicles[plr.Name] = scar
	end
end)

And as a bonus… cleanup on leave:

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(plr)
	if playerVehicles[plr.Name] ~= nil then
		playerVehicles[plr.Name]:Destroy()
		playerVehicles[plr.Name] = nil
	end
end
