Help with welds?
I was wondering why isn't this script welding the player's arms to the cloned arms and cloning the left arm? If you manged to fix it please show how and what you did. I got no errors in the output.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(Player)
Player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(Character)
---------------------------------------------------------
function MakeDisplayArms()
---------------------------------------------------------
local CurrentCamera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local PlayerArms = {
Character["Right Arm"],
Character["Left Arm"]}
---------------------------------------------------------
for i,v in pairs (PlayerArms) do
Character:WaitForChild(v.Name)
FoundClonedArms = CurrentCamera:FindFirstChild("Cloned_"..v.Name)--Finds for Cloned parts
if not FoundClonedArms then--Litte debounce
print(v)
local ClonedArms = v:Clone()
ClonedArms.Parent = CurrentCamera--Hides it from everyone else
ClonedArms.Name = "Cloned_"..v.Name --Renames it
ClonedArms.CanCollide = true
local Weld = Instance.new("Weld",v)
Weld.Part0 = ClonedArms--Welds it Arms
Weld.Part1 = v
return ClonedArms
else
return FoundClonedArms
end
end
end
---------------------------------------------------------
Arms = MakeDisplayArms()
print(Arms)
end)
end)
What is this script suppose to do? This script is suppose to make a fake arm that is hidden in the CurrentCamera and that the player can see his arm when zoomed in.

I removed the debounce, because it's not needed. Then I moved the 'Return' outside the for loop. In your script, the for loop stopped after cloning the first arm. Then for the extra table, I made that one to hold the new cloned arms. So they can be returned as a table at the end of the function.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(Player)
Player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(Character)
---------------------------------------------------------
function MakeDisplayArms()
wait()
---------------------------------------------------------
local CurrentCamera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
local PlayerArms = {
Character["Right Arm"],
Character["Left Arm"]}
local ClonedArms = {}
---------------------------------------------------------
for i,v in pairs (PlayerArms) do
Character:WaitForChild(v.Name)
local Clone = v:Clone()
Clone.Parent = CurrentCamera--Hides it from everyone else
Clone.Name = "Cloned_"..v.Name --Renames it
Clone.CanCollide = true
local Weld = Instance.new("Weld",Clone)
Weld.Part0 = Clone
Weld.Part1 = v
ClonedArms[i] = Clone
end
return ClonedArms
end
---------------------------------------------------------
Arms = MakeDisplayArms()
end)
end)
Now for example
-- If you put: print(Arms[2].Name.." and "..Arms[1].Name) -- After: Arms = MakeDisplayArms()
It will print Left Arm and Right Arm

How did you get the arms in the table if you didn't use Table.insert? kevinnight45 550 — 9y

The for loop gives an index, which in this case is 'i'. Then at Line 22 of the script above, you can see that I put the 'Clone' in the 'ClonedArms' table at index 'i'. damagex443 325 — 9y
