Hi, so I'm pretty new to Lua and I need help with my script. So basically I'm just trying to make it so that I can teleport myself to specific coordinates. Here's my current script that I made to try and teleport myself to specific coordinates. But it won't work, and I keep on getting an error through my output saying "21:05:04.287 - Workspace.Script:1: attempt to index nil with 'position'" And I just don't know how to fix it, can someone please help me?

game.Players.LocalPlayer.position = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0) -- The script that's giving me errors making it so that I can't make it teleport myself to specific coordinates.

You cant do LocalPlayer in a script, (script = server, localscript = client) do it in a localscript instead

And you should use Position instead of position the latter has been deprecated

and player doesnt have .Position property, you need to reference the Character which has a PrimaryPart which does have .Position property

And you should CFrame property instead of Position since the character uses weldcontraints and when u change the Position it translates a new ofset for only that part, so it looks really weird

example as requested : localscript in StarterCharacterScripts

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.PrimaryPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(0,10000,0)

you can, it just doesnt do what you expect it to do since the character uses weldconstraints VerdommeMan 1479 — 3y
