Why is my script print statement always printing "target"?
01 | local target = script.Parent.Parent.Target.Text |
02 | local rank = script.Parent.Parent.Rank.Text |
03 | local change = script.Parent |
04 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
05 | change.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
06 | print(target) |
07 | local Target = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(target123) |
08 | if Target then |
09 | print(Target.Name) |
10 | Target.Head.title.rank.Text = rank |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
the print statement in line 6 is always printing target for no reason what could be the cause?

Maybe try not to put numbers in a variable name and also it’s probably something wrong where you locate the objects, also don’t save the text value to a variable try saving the label to a variable instead of the text value o it iamtryingtofindname 22 — 4y

Well that means that it is something wrong elsewhere, because you are printing the text value of the object, which means that either there is something wrong in the text box, or you are locating the wrong object, ex. You a iamtryingtofindname 22 — 4y

In the target variable above, remove .Text and add it where your print is. print(target.Text) BestCreativeBoy 1395 — 4y

okay so you should put the target variable inside of the function because target is going t be the text as soon as the script runs
01 | local change = script.Parent |
02 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
03 | change.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
04 | local target = script.Parent.Parent.Target.Text |
05 | local rank = script.Parent.Parent.Rank.Text |
06 | print(target) |
07 | local Target = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("target123") |
08 | if Target then |
09 | print(Target.Name) |
10 | Target.Head.title.rank.Text = rank |
11 | end |
12 | end) |
