"Else" statement does not seem to work?

Asked May 9, 2020282 views2 answers

So my code looks like this :

while wait() do
if game:GetService("Workspace").Map then
   codeeeee
else
      print("ok")
end
end

Output :

Map is not a valid member of Workspace

Shouldn't it print ok until the map spawns in?

I don’t know if this is the “right” way to do it but I usually use

  if workspace:FindFirstChild(“Map”) ~= nil then
 else
 end

This works for me...

Just change the code to:

while wait() do
if workspace:FindFirstChild("Map") then
   --codeeeee
else
      print("ok")
end
end

Doesn't work

Any errors? Where is your script located?

works for me

I think FindFirstChild returns nil if there is no child with that name.

So maybe nil does not equal false or true and causes an error?
