I made a a name tag but something is wrong. (?)
So I just made a basic NameTag gui but the name of the player won't show. It just show name(I named the text "Name") but it should show The text I have put in instead of the player name.
The errors are Expected ':' not '.' calling member function FindFirstChild and ServerScriptService.NameTagScript:12: attempt to index string with 'Text' but I don't know how to fix the errors
Script in ServerScriptService
01 | local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage") |
02 | local nametag = ServerStorage.NameTag |
03 |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) |
05 | player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) |
06 | local head = char.Head |
07 | local newtext = nametag:Clone() |
08 | local Name = newtext.Name |
09 | --function |
10 | newtext.Parent = head |
11 | newtext.Adornee = head |
12 | Name.Text = player.Name |
13 | end) |
14 | end) |

I have an answer because I have done one of these custom name-tags. Insert BillboardGui into script: Insert into StarterPlayer.StarterCharacterScripts
1 | local char = script.Parent |
2 |
3 | char.Humanoid.DisplayDistanceType = Enum.HumanoidDisplayDistanceType.None |
4 | script.BillboardGui.TextLabel.Text = char.Name |
5 | script.BillboardGui.Parent = char.Head |
