how do I get the players character from player?

Asked by 4 years ago

basically just trying to get the players character model. this doesn't work

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    local char = player.Character
    local head = char:FindFirstChild("Head")
    head:Destroy()
end)

That looks about right. Does that not work? HappleMan 24 — 4y

try :WaitForChild() that should work because we are waiting for the player's character to load in Dexiber 272 — 4y

if not player.Character then player.CharacterAdded:Wait() end add this before the local char line you need to wait until the character has loaded in

you can also do this repeat wait() until player.Character but it's a bad practice

and this would be even the best player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded:Wait()
