Can't find a way to get the character from the player?
this is my code but I keep getting this error: ServerScriptService.Script:5: attempt to index nil with 'Character'
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
print(player.name "joined")
end)
if not player.Character then
print("waiting for character")
player.CharacterAdded:wait();
char = player.Character
else
char = player.Character
end

put your if statement inside the function. Your if statement does not know what player is because the player is a parameter of the function and it is only available for code inside the function (someone please explain this better).
