Why isn't Alive being cloned to the player's character?

[hellofriend3012]

I’m trying to clone “Alive” to the player’s character. Right now, it doesn’t do that. Alive is a sibling of the script, and the parent BoolValue’s value is true.

local plrs = game:GetService('Players')

plrs.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	if script.Parent.Value == true then
		wait(plr.Character)
		script.Parent.Alive:Clone().Parent = plr.Character
	else
		plr:Kick('The round has already started, joining is now disabled.')
	end
end)

didn’t wait for the players character to load, since the player loads before the character.
^ you did wait, but i dont think it actually waited

local plrs = game:GetService('Players')

plrs.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
       plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
	    if script.Parent.Value == true then
		  script.Parent.Alive:Clone().Parent = char
	    else
		  plr:Kick('The round has already started, joining is now disabled.')
	    end
      end)
end)

^bad formatting due to writing in on devfourms sorry, working on it

wait(plr.Character) isn’t correct. You can do the following:

local plrs = game:GetService('Players')

plrs.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	if script.Parent.Value == true then
		script.Parent.Alive:Clone().Parent = char
	else
		plr:Kick('The round has already started, joining is now disabled.')
	end
end)

this would also work

(this one just checks if the character already exsists, and if it doesnt it waits for it to)
