Random face generator isn't working, however can generate random skin colors

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello! A friend and I are making a game, and inside is a random avatar generator. It generates eyes, a mouth, a skin color from the list and random leg and torso colors. However, when the game is started, the face part does not function.
We both already know that the faces do display and have not been taken down. My friend made a script that worked, however it used a bunch of if statements and it just wasn’t ideal. Here is the code.

local randomeyes = math.random(1,11)
local randommouth = math.random(1,11)
local randomsc = math.random(1,13)
local sctable = {BrickColor.new("Bright orange"), BrickColor.new("Steel blue"), BrickColor.new("Sand green"), BrickColor.new("Daisy orange"), BrickColor.new("Bright yellow"), BrickColor.new("Medium stone grey"), BrickColor.new("Pastel Blue"), BrickColor.new("Dark green"), BrickColor.new("Bright green"), BrickColor.new("Brick yellow"), BrickColor.new("Carnation pink"), BrickColor.new("Institutional white"), BrickColor.new("Persimmon")}
local etable = {"rbxassetid://8490553519", "rbxassetid://8490867175", "rbxassetid://8490845222", "rbxassetid://8490767522", "rbxassetid://8490638841", "rbxassetid://8490609474", "rbxassetid://8490885723", "rbxassetid://8490821161", "rbxassetid://8490794759", "rbxassetid://8490672508", "rbxassetid://8490737868"}
local mtable = {"rbxassetid://8490637538", "rbxassetid://8490554496", "rbxassetid://8490844517", "rbxassetid://8490867821", "rbxassetid://8490766940", "rbxassetid://8490608807", "rbxassetid://8490886264", "rbxassetid://8490820456", "rbxassetid://8490795435", "rbxassetid://8490673442", "rbxassetid://8490736895"}
local mouth = script.Parent.Head.Mouth.Texture
local eyes = script.Parent.Head.Eyes.Texture
local person = script.Parent
local tcolor = BrickColor.Random()
local lcolors = BrickColor.Random()

-- random eye generation

for i = 1,11,1 do
	if i == randomeyes then
		eyes = etable[randomeyes]
	end
end

-- random mouth generation

for i = 1,11,1 do
	if i == randommouth then
		mouth = mtable[randommouth]
	end
end

-- random skin generation

for i = 1,13,1 do
	if i == randomsc then
		local sc = sctable[randomsc]
		person.Head.BrickColor = sc
		person["Left Arm"].BrickColor = sc
		person["Right Arm"].BrickColor = sc
		person.Torso.BrickColor = tcolor
		person["Left Leg"].BrickColor = lcolors
		person["Right Leg"].BrickColor = lcolors
		person.Helmet.Handle.BrickColor = lcolors
	end
end

-- end of script, time to destroy

script:Destroy()

Output displays the numbers just fine when printing, so we know the code works.

As always, help would be appreciated!

u can just do etable[math.random(#etable)] to pick a random value from that table, becuz rn it can only have one randomly selected face cuz of the variable scope

#3

the face still doesn’t show up, is there any fix for that

#4

emm im not sure, should work, just set the image.Texture as etable[math.random(#etable)]

local etable = {"rbxassetid://8490553519", "rbxassetid://8490867175", "rbxassetid://8490845222", "rbxassetid://8490767522", "rbxassetid://8490638841", "rbxassetid://8490609474", "rbxassetid://8490885723", "rbxassetid://8490821161", "rbxassetid://8490794759", "rbxassetid://8490672508", "rbxassetid://8490737868"}
local eyes = script.Parent.Head.Eyes
eyes.Texture = etable[math.random(#etable)]
