Pokemoncraft5290 · July 6, 2021, 9:53pm

What does this print output? aa

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 9:54pm

to see if is nil or playerName

Pokemoncraft5290 · July 6, 2021, 9:55pm

No, I’m asking what it is printing. Is it outputting your name correctly?

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 9:56pm

no it says “Workspace”

Pokemoncraft5290 · July 6, 2021, 9:57pm

Try removing 1 .Parent on this line.

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 10:03pm

it works, I can click even in my player test it works but after I re-test its my put an error "fares14213 is not a valid member of Folder ,Workspace.Players.Red "

icrann · July 6, 2021, 10:19pm

The problem is that the Players folder is in game.Players.(PlayerName) not game.Workspace.Players.(PlayerName)

when we click

Juicy_Fruit · July 6, 2021, 10:52pm

can you send a screenshot of the entire output so we can see which line it is?

theres no 2nd instance of Workspace under Workspace, you should be able to understand what that means.

If this line is in fact the error then plr.Name is == “Workspace” and thats your error, but send a screenshot of output

game.Workspace.SoccerBall.SoccerBall.Position = game.Workspace[plr.Name].Head.Position + Vector3.new(3,0,0)

also here:

 Infinite yield possible on ‘Workspace.fares14213:WaitForChild(“BallDropped”)’ - Studio

balldropped doesnt exist on the player apparently

just send a screen shot of the output

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 11:02pm

it’s good I managed to fix

Lava_shield · July 6, 2021, 11:03pm

So I have had weird errors like that before (PlayerGui is not a valid member of game.Players.Lava_shield) and I fixed the issue by putting a wait(1) at the start of the script. I am not sure your issue can be fixed this easily but I would try it.

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 11:04pm

exactly at the start of my game it happened to me I wait (0.001) and it works nicely

Lava_shield · July 6, 2021, 11:05pm

But the wait(0.001) doesn’t work this time I am guessing?

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 11:06pm

well me it works well

fares14213 · July 6, 2021, 11:10pm

in short I’m going to sleep, for me the time is 1 AM
