Spell Module not working, why?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have gotten help on using module scripts for spells but it seems not work and sends out this error. Im a little stuck on what im doing wrong and why the spell isn’t working so if anyone could help I would very much appreciate it.

Error:

15:28:11.875 Activator is not a valid member of ModuleScript "ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules.Incendia" - Client - Controller:23

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local ReplicatedStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
local Storage = ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Spells = {
	["Incendia"] =
		{
			Launch = require(Storage.Incendia),
			Activator = {
				["type"] = "chat_message",
				["content"] = "incendia"
			},
			Cooldown = 8,
			Spell= "Incendia",
			Magnitude = 30,
			Magic = 60
		}
}


for _, spell_config in pairs(ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules:GetChildren()) do
	local activatorConfig = spell_config.Activator
	local activatorType = activatorConfig.type

	if (activatorType == "input") then
		-- use InputBegan connection and call whenever it is appropriate
		UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
			if (input.UserInputType == activatorConfig.input) then
				spell_config.Launch.Execute()
				print(""..activatorType)
			end
		end)
	elseif (activatorType == "chat_message") then
		-- use player.Chatted event
		Player.Chatted:Connect(function(msg)
			if (msg == "content") then
				spell_config.Launch.Execute()
				print(""..activatorType)
			end
		end)
	end
end
return Spells

Change

local Storage = ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules

To

local Storage = require(ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules)
#3

Spells modules is a folder though?

#4

Should be Spells instead? At the moment it is the folder instance and not the table you made.

#6

Show explorer for each spell in Spell in ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules.

#7

There is only one spell in the spell modules folder because im trying to test for now and see if this works but sure.

#8

Capture0

#9

Coming from this line. There is no child called Activator inside Incendia.

#10

I just realized this mistake! So i moved

local Spells = {
	["Incendia"] =
		{
			Launch = require(Storage.Incendia),
			Activator = {
				["type"] = "chat_message",
				["content"] = "incendia"
			},
			Cooldown = 8,
			Spell= "Incendia",
			Magnitude = 30,
			Magic = 60
		}
}

into a module because it was actually in a local script. I required it because thats where Activator/type is but it still seems to not work

#11

Error?

#12

I have not gotten any errors at all

#13

Add prints to see where the script doesn’t work anymore.

#14

Actually no i just found an error

#15

Send code for this ModuleScript.

#19 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local ReplicatedStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
local Storage = ReplicatedStorage.SpellsModules
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Spells = {
	["Incendia"] =
		{
			Launch = require(Storage.Incendia),
			Activator = {
				["type"] = "chat_message",
				["content"] = "incendia"
			},
			Cooldown = 8,
			Spell= "Incendia",
			Magnitude = 30,
			Magic = 60
		}
}
return Spells
#20

Try this.

	local activatorConfig = spell_config["Incendia"].Activator
	local activatorType = activatorConfig.type
#21

No errors this time but the spell still seems to not be working
