So as some have seen in my last post I am making a story game to see how it would turn out. I feel like its a nice way to get ahold of some more advanced scripting that I do not know of yet.
I made it where when you enter the first of three elevators and get a StringValue named “Elevator1”.
Does anyone know how I would destroy the StringValue out of the player when they hit the ExitButton?
When … Event happens
(function(plr)
for _,v in pairs(plr:GetChildren()) do
if v.Name == "Elevator1" then
v:Destroy()
end)
end)
Should this be in a certain script?
in the exit script, you would call mousebutton1click:Connect(function()) and then insert the code i told you.
Alsoif its a localscript do
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
If its not put it as a parameter in the function
You don’t need the extra function in the function, and it should be set as plr inseatd of player.
Also your ends are everywhere lol
I redid it and it still has the same parsing expression problem?
Could you show me the script please ?
Move the end that’s second from last and add 2 at the end of the if statement
the first end on the if statement still has the parsing expression problem, it just didn’t show when I took the screenshot.
Hold up. I think I got it, let me check.
Get rid of the plr in the parameter,
Didn’t solve the index nil problem, and now “plr” has a blue underline.
Again the variable needs to be changed to plr not player
What are you talking about? Im sorry but Im so confused.
What is he saying is this:
Remove the parameter “plr”, of the function, and name “plr”, the game.Players.LocalPlayer part. Also, please don’t post screenshots of code, just formate it, then i will explain better.
It seems like you don’t know how to reference the local player correctly. Here’s what you should be doing.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent:MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
for _, child in pairs(player:GetChildren()) do
if child.Name == "Elevator1" then
child:Destroy()
-- Do any other logic here
break
end
end
end)
