Studio doesn't recognize the local player

[breadflsh (breadfish)]

Hey gamers, I’ve been trying to fix this for a long time but haven’t been able to find a solution.
For some reason, I get an error at line 5; Players.Fox_2042.PlayerGui.Menu.Buttons.Play.Click:5: attempt to index nil with 'Team'.
I don’t know what I can do to make the game recognize the local player. Nothing I try works.

Here’s the scipt.

local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(plr)
 	plr.Team = script.Parent.Parent.SelectedTeam.Value
	plr:LoadCharacter()
end)

Is this in a LocalScript?

No, I had tried it with a local script but the same error occurred.

[CE0_OfTrolling (CEO_OfTrolling)]

Well the LocalPlayer property does not exist on the server for fairly obvious reasons (because it’s the server…) so there’s no point in trying this with a normal Script, try debugging with a LocalScript

You’re overriding the plr variable by the functions value. Do this instead:

local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
 	plr.Team = script.Parent.Parent.SelectedTeam.Value
	plr:LoadCharacter()
end)

and also do it on the client, and LoadCharacter doesn’t work on the client. So you will need to use a remote event

Worked, thanks!
Funny, I’ve tried using a local script and tried removing plr but never both at once lmaoa
