"Requested Module Experienced an Error while loading."?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello! I am making a game and a certain module is stopping the rest of the script from working, here’s the module:

local COLOSSEUM_ID = 6793467878
local RESORT_ID    = 6793468987

if game.CreatorId == 1084073 then
	COLOSSEUM_ID = 313771763
	RESORT_ID    = 314437797
end

local storage = game:GetService('ServerStorage')
local subContextStorage = storage:WaitForChild('SubContexts')
local repStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
local placeId = game.PlaceId
local context

if placeId == COLOSSEUM_ID or game:GetService('RunService'):IsStudio() then
	context = 'battle'
	storage.MapChunks:ClearAllChildren()
	storage.Indoors:ClearAllChildren()
	subContextStorage.Colosseum.Skybox.Parent = game:GetService('Lighting')
	local worldModel = subContextStorage.Colosseum.WorldModel
	worldModel.Parent = workspace
	pcall(function() require(script['2v2Board']):enable(worldModel['2v2Board'].Screen.SurfaceGui.Container) end)
	pcall(function() require(script.SpectateBoard):enable(worldModel.SpectateBoard.Screen.SurfaceGui.Container) end)
	local chunk = subContextStorage.Colosseum.chunk
	chunk.Name = 'colosseum'
	chunk.Parent = storage.MapChunks

	storage.Models.BattleScenes:ClearAllChildren()
	subContextStorage.Colosseum.SingleFields.Parent = storage.Models.BattleScenes
	subContextStorage.Colosseum.DoubleFields.Parent = storage.Models.BattleScenes

	subContextStorage:Destroy()
	game:GetService('Lighting').TimeOfDay = '14:00:00'
elseif placeId == RESORT_ID then
	context = 'trade'
	storage.MapChunks:ClearAllChildren()
	storage.Indoors:ClearAllChildren()
	subContextStorage.Resort.Skybox.Parent = game:GetService('Lighting')
	subContextStorage.Resort.WorldModel.Parent = workspace
	local chunk = subContextStorage.Resort.chunk
	chunk.Name = 'resort'
	chunk.Parent = storage.MapChunks

	--	repStorage.Models.BattleScenes:Destroy()

	subContextStorage:Destroy()
	game:GetService('Lighting').TimeOfDay = '20:00:00'--'14:00:00'
else
	context = 'adventure'
	subContextStorage:Destroy()
end

if context ~= 'adventure' then
	game:GetService('Players').ChildAdded:connect(function(player)
		if not player or not player:IsA('Player') then return end
		if player.UserId < 1 then
			player:Kick()
		end
	end)
end

local tag = Instance.new('StringValue')
tag.Name = 'GameContext'
tag.Value = context
tag.Parent = repStorage.Version

return context

Anything wrong with this module? Why is it saying “Requested Module Experienced and Error While Loading”?

#2

What line does this happen on, and is there more output?

#3

There is no output of the module other than “Requested Module Experienced an Error While Loading”, I don’t know if I will be able to locate the line the error occurs, but I will try.

#4

What was the tactic? debug.traceback(), It is a joke, but maybe it can help you solving this, as my tired eyes can’t see the answer.

Huh, it could be the wrapped in pcall’s, for some reason.

#6

I altered the code a bit, mostly by adding a ton of :WaitForChild() and :FindFirstChild() arguments, to prevent any infinite yields, and I tested the pcall issue by commenting the pcalls and that did not work. here is the new code:

wait(.5)
local storage = game:GetService('ServerStorage')
local subContextStorage = storage:WaitForChild('SubContexts')

local COLOSSEUM_ID = storage:WaitForChild("ColloseumID").Value
local RESORT_ID    = storage:WaitForChild("ResortID").Value

local placeId = game.PlaceId
local context

if placeId == COLOSSEUM_ID or game:GetService('RunService'):IsStudio() then
	context = 'battle'
	
	--Clear Chunks
	storage:WaitForChild("MapChunks"):ClearAllChildren()
	storage:WaitForChild("Indoors"):ClearAllChildren()
	
	--Unpacker
	subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Colosseum"):FindFirstChild("Skybox").Parent = game:GetService('Lighting')
	local worldModel = subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Colosseum"):FindFirstChild("WorldModel")
	worldModel.Parent = workspace
	
	pcall(function() require(script['2v2Board']):enable(worldModel['2v2Board']:WaitForChild("Screen"):FindFirstChild("SurfaceGui"):FindFirstChild("Container")) end)
	pcall(function() require(script.SpectateBoard):enable(worldModel:WaitForChild("SpectateBoard"):FindFirstChild("Screen"):FindFirstChild("SurfaceGui"):FindFirstChild("Container")) end)
	
	local chunk = subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Colosseum"):FindFirstChild("chunk")
	chunk.Name = 'colosseum'
	chunk.Parent = storage:WaitForChild("MapChunks")
	
	storage:WaitForChild("Models"):FindFirstChild("BattleScenes"):ClearAllChildren()
	subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Colosseum"):FindFirstChild("SingleFields").Parent = storage:WaitForChild("Models"):FindFirstChild("BattleScenes")
	subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Colosseum"):FindFirstChild("DoubleFields").Parent = storage:WaitForChild("Models"):FindFirstChild("BattleScenes")
	
	subContextStorage:remove()
	game:GetService('Lighting').TimeOfDay = '14:00:00'
elseif placeId == RESORT_ID then
	context = 'trade'
	
	--Clear Chunks
	storage:WaitForChild("MapChunks"):ClearAllChildren()
	storage:WaitForChild("Indoors"):ClearAllChildren()
	
	--Unpacker
	subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Resort"):FindFirstChild("Skybox").Parent = game:GetService('Lighting')
	subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Resort"):FindFirstChild("WorldModel").Parent = workspace
	local chunk = subContextStorage:WaitForChild("Resort"):FindFirstChild("chunk")
	chunk.Name = 'resort'
	chunk.Parent = storage:WaitForChild("MapChunks")
	
	subContextStorage:remove()
	game:GetService('Lighting').TimeOfDay = '20:00:00'--'14:00:00'
else
	context = 'adventure'
	subContextStorage:remove()
end

if context ~= 'adventure' then
	game:GetService('Players').ChildAdded:connect(function(player)
		if not player or not player:IsA('Player') then return end
		if player.UserId < 1 then
			player:Kick()
		end
	end)
end

local repStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
local tag = Instance.new('StringValue')
tag.Name = 'GameContext'
tag.Value = context
tag.Parent = repStorage:FindFirstChild("Version")

return context

Really not anything different, just a ton of :WaitForChild()'s, do you have any ideas on how I could find the exact location of what’s causing the issue?

#7

Wait, this is the wrong module, I’ve been reading the output very wrong. Sorry for the confusion! I think I know how to fix this now!

I dont see local context = {} on the top of your module script, module script use the following layout

local module = {}

return module
#9

Do you know that isn’t needed?

#10

Good job! It is good for you, and for us too hshshs.

Good afternoon, body.

#11

Can I see the script where you require the module?

#12

Usually when modules fail to require there is a second error message indicating why it failed (eg. module does not return exactly one value, or a logic error with your script’s source). Do you see anything like that?

I do, that is actually how I fixed it earlier, forgot to mention it here. Everything works now, but thank you all for your time!
