Change string value with script not working?
So I have a script located on a image button that is on a frame and that frame in a screen gui but the script throws me an error (Read Below)
Script:
1 | local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | local kat = plr:WaitForChild("EquippedKat") |
3 | local button = script.Parent |
4 |
5 | button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
6 | kat.Value = button.Name |
7 | end) |
Error:
19:35:41.450 - Players.0Papa_Rat0.PlayerGui.Shop.Grid.Classic.Script:3: attempt to index nil with 'WaitForChild'

You are using a Server-Script!
You have to use a LocalScript for that cuz you cant get theLocalPlayer with a server script!
I hope that helped you :D

Hi 0Papa_Rat0,
This is probably because you are using a Server Script. Use a LocalScript and it will be able to get the players.
Go here to find out more about LocalScripts.
Thanks,
