Problem with tables

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Ok so I have a game with bullets and to optimize the game I made this thing where multiple bullets use a table of values, my problem here is I cannot get the table from _G.

Heres the scripts:

The script that creates the tables and puts them into a table in _G.

local BulletStats = {}

script.CreateStat.Event:Connect(function(sentbulletstats)

local stattable = {{sentbulletstats[2],sentbulletstats[3],sentbulletstats[4],sentbulletstats[5],sentbulletstats[6],sentbulletstats[7],sentbulletstats[8],sentbulletstats[9],sentbulletstats[10],sentbulletstats[11],sentbulletstats[12]}}

table.insert(_G[sentbulletstats[1]],stattable)

end)

local bulletStatsTable = {BulletStats}

table.insert(_G,1,bulletStatsTable)

script.CreateStat:Fire({1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,false,false,100,false})

The script that moves the bullets by getting table values(i made some debugs to check if the table value is nil and im getting fps drops to 2 fps).

if v:IsA("BasePart") then
				local groupnumber = v:GetAttribute("StatGroup") + 1
				local statsd = _G[1]
				local stat = nil
				local number = 1
				for i,v in pairs(statsd) do
					print(v)
					if number == groupnumber then
						stat = v
					end
					number += 1
				end
				if stat then
				local Speed = stat[2]
				local Slowdown = stat[4]
				local Slowlimit = stat[3]
				local Spin = stat[5]
				local SpinAmount = stat[6]
				local SpinLimit = stat[7]
				local shieldDamage = stat[8]
				local ShieldDestroy = stat[9]
				local borderDestroy = stat[10]
				local Lifetime = stat[11]
					local rotation = v.Orientation
					if Speed then
				v.CFrame *= (CFrame.new(0,0,-Speed * Multiplier))*CFrame.Angles(0,Speed * Multiplier,0)
				if Lifetime < 0 then
					v:Destroy()
				end
end

The scripts may be overcomplicated because its 4 am and i tried a lot of ways to solve this issue but i always get this error(the debugs removed from the script):

Players.Ghostisnothere2098.PlayerGui.BulletMove:63: attempt to compare nil < nil

the table just prints out as: nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil

i will probably respond to the comments after 9 hours or so.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
