Require() yields script forever

[remcodesremcodes (Yix)]

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
   require a modulescript

2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
   when requiring, the whole script stops

3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
   no solutions matched my script

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

my initial goal is to create a spectate system but hides the toggle button if player is currently in round or no players to spectate
my game system uses a module script to find the players that are in a match

print("script loaded 1")
repeat wait() until game:IsLoaded() --for some reason, still needs :WaitForChild()
local button = script.Parent.Toggle
local frame = script.Parent.Frame
local title = frame.SubjectName
local left = frame["<"]
local right = frame[">"]
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
local num = 1
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

frame.Visible = false
button.Visible = true

print("before require")

local playing = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService"):WaitForChild("CurrentlyPlaying") --this is where the script ends

print("module loaded")

function changeToPlayer()
title.Text = plr.Name
cam.CameraSubject = plr.Character.Humanoid
num = 1
end

button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
print("click")
if frame.Visible == true then
frame.Visible = false
changeToPlayer()
print("hidden frame")
else
frame.Visible = true
changeToPlayer()
print("unhidden frame")
end
end)

right.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local players = playing
local amountofplayers = #players
num += 1
if num > amountofplayers then
num = 1
end
cam.CameraSubject = players[num].Character.Humanoid
title.Text = players[num].Name
print("right clicked")
end)

left.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local players = playing
local amountofplayers = #players
num -= 1
if num < amountofplayers then
num = amountofplayers
end
cam.CameraSubject = players[num].Character.Humanoid
title.Text = players[num].Name
print("left clicked")
end)

spawn(function()
while wait() do
if #playing > 0 then
if table.find(playing, plr) then
button.Visible = false
changeToPlayer()
print("loop works 1")
else
button.Visible = true
print("loop works 2")
end
else
button.Visible = false
changeToPlayer()
print("loop works 3")
end
end
end)

please help

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

You can’t access ServerScriptService from the client, causing it to yield infinitely, since the client can’t see what’s inside ServerScriptService.

Edit: @Drifty5G also pointed out you were missing a closing bracket on the line where you attempted to require “CurrentlyPlaying”, but the post was deleted.

im on mobile so it’s hard to write scripts and not just copy paste
