Workspace.Button Simulator.Types.Worlds.Model.Portal.Script:7: attempt to index nil with 'Character' (Full function doesn't work)

kdopdaux1803 · October 5, 2022, 10:17am

Hello guys, while I was doing the new (Huge) update from Button Simulator, I had this issue.

Script:

local Player = game:GetService("Players")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function() -- This line errors.
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch() -- This line also errors because it's a function that's starts at Line 6.

Video:

The issue appeared before the game starts.
And the video is broken… unfortunately.

Image:

Yeah, because it already says on the title, I don’t need to put any images.
You can see of what it is.

So yeah guys, any help is appreciated.

Check if the module is on client

local Player = game:GetService("Players")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	if RunService:IsServer() then
		return
	end
	
	game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function() -- This line errors.
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch() -- This line also errors because it's a function that's starts at Line 6.

You can no longer use .character on the client side. Instead, use workspace:FindFirstChild(player.Name) to find the player in the workspace.

Also, instead of warning in the console log, you should show the player directly how many ‘Ultra Rebirths’ they need using a text-label or something.

AlbertSeir · October 5, 2022, 10:57am

game.Players.LocalPlayer

It is on the client

BirdieI90 · October 5, 2022, 11:03am

Players.LocalPlayer is always nil on the server, I think It gave the error because it is basically just nil.Character

JarodOfOrbiter · October 5, 2022, 11:12am

That makes no sense, you can always use Character on the client.

This is what the error means. It’s always a little confusing at first because you assume it means Character is nil, but it actually means the thing before it is nil.

AlbertSeir · October 5, 2022, 12:30pm

I don’t know. Recently, Roblox has been throwing errors at me whenever I try to use .character on the client, so the only way around it for me is to just get the character directly from the workspace.

MikeyForums_Dotnet · October 5, 2022, 1:21pm

Yeah, your script uses game.Players.LocalPlayer which you can only use in a local script or it will error. Also, what is the script’s parent? In your function you used script.Parent.Touched, but what is the script parented to?

kdopdaux1803 · October 5, 2022, 1:40pm

The Script’s parent is the Portal.

MikeyForums_Dotnet · October 5, 2022, 1:43pm

What I meant is what is the parent’s classname. Is it a mesh? is it a part? What is it?

kdopdaux1803 · October 5, 2022, 1:45pm

Yes

kdopdaux1803 · October 16, 2022, 7:09am

So, I tried to change the line 7 to a literal WaitForChild but I get this error:

One time, the game won’t even load.

This only happened at 60 FPS, but now, at about 240 FPS, the game loads.

local Player = game:GetService("Players")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	game.Players:WaitForChild("Model").Humanoid = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.Players:WaitForChild("Model").PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

kdopdaux1803 · October 16, 2022, 7:16am

I changed the script to make it more “complex” but…

local Player = game:GetService("Players")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch(hit)
	local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(game.Players.LocalPlayer)
	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if plr["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.Players:WaitForChild("Model").PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

MikeyForums_Dotnet · October 21, 2022, 12:08pm

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function() -- This line errors.
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

Try this.

kdopdaux1803 · October 22, 2022, 10:19am

Still errors.

MikeyForums_Dotnet · October 22, 2022, 11:17am

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	Humanoid = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

If that doesn’t work, try this instead:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

The 1st script errors.

bandicam 2022-10-22 14-02-34-524

And the second one as well.

So both of the scripts has the same line error.

MikeyForums_Dotnet · October 22, 2022, 3:16pm

Follow the steps below, and don’t move your script to another location. There are 6 Steps, make sure you don’t skip any of them.

Step1. Change your script’s RunContext to Client
Screenshot_20221022_104111
This will turn your script into a local script.

Step2. Insert a RemoteFunction into ReplicatedStorage
Screenshot_20221022_104550
Since the script is now a LocalScript, we will use a RemoteFunction to send data to the server.

Step3. Rename the RemoteFunction to “RemoteFunctionForPortalScript”
Screenshot_20221022_104749
This will allow the RemoteFunction to be called in our LocalScript.

Step4. Add some script to your LocalScript

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunctionForPortalScript:InvokeServer()
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

Paste this code into your LocalScript.

Step5. Add a Script into ServerScriptService
Screenshot_20221022_111037

Step6. Add some script into your Script

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunctionForPortalScript.OnServerInvoke = function(player, part)
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace["Button Simulator"].Types["Tp THINGS"]["World 2"].TPPart.CFrame
end

Paste this code into your Script.

kdopdaux1803 · October 23, 2022, 6:05am

Now I get this issue:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunctionForPortalScript:InvokeServer()
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch()

BirdieI90 · October 23, 2022, 9:36am

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
task.wait()

script.Parent.Gui["Title (Required)"].Text = "You need at least "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth."

local function touch()
	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
		if game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value >= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunctionForPortalScript:InvokeServer()
		elseif game.Players["Ultra Rebirth"].Value <= script.Config["Required Value"].Value then
			warn("You do not have "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth. Get "..script.Config["Required Value"].Value-game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats["Ultra Rebirth"].Value.." Ultra Rebirth more !")
		end
	end)
end

return touch

bruh the () on the end, Return the function not fire the function, anyways its fixed

I think
