Firstly… Idk if this is the right topic. So please move this topic if it is the wrong category!
I have a game and I published the game to another game, but for some reason… one of the games have an error and the other one does not have an error, even though the games are the same.
Here is a video of what I mean:
Can someone tell me what is happening? And how to fix it?
You’ll have to provide some more information, we can’t do much just with this.
What info did I forget to provide? Is this not enough?
Could you send us the script that causes the problem? (the one that shows in the error)
I don’t know whats causing the problem, I could send the script that errors though.
Here is the script that errors:
local parent = script.Parent
local mainFrame = parent:WaitForChild("MainWorFrame")
local close = mainFrame:WaitForChild("Close")
local mainFrm = script.Parent:WaitForChild("MainFrame")
local scroller = mainFrm:WaitForChild("Scroller")
local open = scroller:WaitForChild("Workers"):WaitForChild("Button")
local shopFrame = mainFrame:WaitForChild("ShopFrame")
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local AIRemotes = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("AIRemoteEvents")
local removeWorkerFailedRemote = AIRemotes:WaitForChild("RemoveWorkerFailed")
local removeWorkerRemote = AIRemotes:WaitForChild("RemoveWorker")
local addWorkerRemote = AIRemotes:WaitForChild("AddWorker")
local addWorkerFailedRemote = AIRemotes:WaitForChild("AddWorkerFailed")
local alert = parent:WaitForChild("Alert")
local warningIcon = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=2130987057"
local warningDuration = 30
local toNum = tonumber
local AIValues = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("AIValueSettings")
local maxAIs = AIValues:WaitForChild("MaxAIs").Value
local receiveTable = AIRemotes:WaitForChild("SendTable")
local hiredWorkers = {}
local totalWorkers = 0
removeWorkerFailedRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(title, reason)
game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCore("SendNotification", {
Title = title;
Text = reason;
Icon = warningIcon;
Duration = warningDuration
})
alert:Play()
end)
addWorkerFailedRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(title, reason)
game:GetService("StarterGui"):SetCore("SendNotification", {
title = title;
Text = reason;
Icon = warningIcon;
Duration = warningDuration
})
alert:Play()
end)
function increaseWorkers(worker, workerAmountLabel)
if totalWorkers < maxAIs then
workerAmountLabel.Text = workerAmountLabel.Text + 1
addWorkerRemote:FireServer(worker.Name)
end
end
receiveTable.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(tbl)
hiredWorkers = tbl
for i, v in ipairs(tbl) do
if i > 2 then
totalWorkers = v
end
end
for i, v in ipairs(shopFrame:GetChildren()) do
if not v:IsA("UIListLayout") then
v:WaitForChild("HiredWorkers").Text = hiredWorkers[i + 2]
end
end
end)
function decreaseWorkers(worker, workerAmountLabel)
if toNum(workerAmountLabel.Text) > 0 then
workerAmountLabel.Text = workerAmountLabel.Text - 1
removeWorkerRemote:FireServer(worker.Name)
end
end
for i, v in pairs(shopFrame:GetChildren()) do
if not v:IsA("UIListLayout") then
local b = v:FindFirstChild("AddWorkers")
if b then
b.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
increaseWorkers(v, v:WaitForChild("HiredWorkers"))
end)
end
end
end
for i, v in pairs(shopFrame:GetChildren()) do
if not v:IsA("UIListLayout") then
local b = v:WaitForChild("SubtractWorkers")
if b then
b.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
decreaseWorkers(v, v:WaitForChild("HiredWorkers"))
end)
end
end
end
open.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
mainFrame.Visible = not mainFrame.Visible
mainFrm.Visible = not mainFrm.Visible
end)
close.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
mainFrame.Visible = false
mainFrm.Visible = true
end)
If u need more information then let me know.
Apparently you are having problems in this line. Since you, or your script, are trying to put a nil value as text. And hiredworkers seem to be a value that comes from the server. hiredWorkers = tbl
--[[--Line 62--]] v:WaitForChild("HiredWorkers").Text = hiredWorkers[i + 2]
Could it be that you are forgetting to send some data from the server?
In case the event is correctly invoked by the server, towards the client. You can do this to make sure you’re not trying to put a nil value as text.
for i, v in ipairs(shopFrame:GetChildren()) do
if not v:IsA("UIListLayout") and hiredWorkers ~= nil then
v:WaitForChild("HiredWorkers").Text = tostring(hiredWorkers[i + 2]) -- I'm not sure if tostring() can solve this, but just in case, I add it.
end
end
How come this error does not happen, then I publish the game that does not have the error to another game, but the “another game” has the error?
I don’t think it’s a problem related to the publication of the game. I think it’s a problem, either from Studio, or from the script. I mean, that the script, on the server, is sending a nil value to the client, for whatever reason.
Since the game is completely the same, that should not cause this.
But… both games are the same, but the error is happening in one of them, and the other one is totally fine even though the games are the same.
What information are you sending from the server?

receiveTable.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(tbl)
hiredWorkers = tbl

Note that the script is an unfinished AI / NPC script.
I have the same problem but listen or read lmao so i think this error because you fast close the roblox studio after you stop playing i can happen some times after you publish or create a model so just after publish create a model or stop playing wait five or ten seconds and the game can not save hope this post is helpful
Resetting the datastores that save the workers fixed the problem!
