How would I "respawn" as myself after being morphed to something else?
Hello, I am attempting to respawn my original character to my current one.
What have I done to get to this point?
- I have created a morph button, changing my character to a model I put in
- Changed it's name
- Repositioned it to my old character's CFrame
-- Scriptwise
script.Parent.ButtonA.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local Player = game.Players:WaitForChild("bostaffmanbulgaria1")
local OldCharacter = game.Workspace[Player.Name]:Clone()
OldCharacter.Parent = script
local NewChar = game.ReplicatedStorage.Dummy:Clone()
NewChar.Name = Player.Name
NewChar:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(game.Workspace[Player.Name]:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 5, 0))
Player.Character = NewChar
NewChar.Parent = game.Workspace
end)
**What I am trying to accomplish? **
I'm trying to revert my old character back in the same way as I morphed it.
What I have done so far? - Cloned my old character before any code regarding character change being ran - result: ERROR: Players.bostaffmanbulgaria1.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Script:4: attempt to index nil with 'Parent'
I did **not ** find any information about this in Google.

Characters by default are not archivable. That means you cannot clone them neither save a copy of them if their archivable property is set to false.
To do this you have to set it's Archivable property to true
Character.Archivable = true
Implementing this into your code
script.Parent.ButtonA.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local Player = game.Players:WaitForChild("bostaffmanbulgaria1")
local Character = workspace[Player.Name]
Character.Archivable = true
local OldCharacter = Character:Clone()
OldCharacter.Parent = script
local NewChar = game.ReplicatedStorage.Dummy:Clone()
NewChar.Name = Player.Name
NewChar:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(game.Workspace[Player.Name]:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 5, 0))
Player.Character = NewChar
NewChar.Parent = game.Workspace
end)
I also recommend to use FindFirstChild() instead of game.Workspace[Player.Name] and also use workspace instead of game.Workspace
If that answered your question mark it as the answer!

try making it a while true do loop, (but remember, put a wait() in there or it will break!)
