You use R6 character version? NiniBlackJackQc 1562 — 4y

Just add brackets when you call dmg, and pass through the hit object. thecelestialcube 123 — 4y

You have created a function that requires a parameter, but you are calling it without giving it the required parameter.
Try this:
01 | local rarm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm") |
02 | local larm = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Left Arm") |
03 |
04 | rarm.Touched:connect(function(Hit) -- So I can get the parameter(Hit) |
05 | if hit.Parent ~= nil then |
06 | local hum = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
07 | if hum ~= nil then |
08 | hum.Health = hum.Health -10 |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 | end) |
12 |
13 | larm.Touched:connect(function(Hit) -- So I can get the parameter(Hit) |
14 | if hit.Parent ~= nil then |
15 | local hum = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
16 | if hum ~= nil then |
17 | hum.Health = hum.Health -10 |
18 | end |
19 | end |
20 | end) |

01 | local rarm = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Right Arm") -- WaitForChild is waiting for that object until its loaded, you problem was that "rarm" or "larm" doesnt exist |
02 | local larm = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Left Arm") |
03 |
04 | function dmg(hit) |
05 | if hit.Parent ~= nil then |
06 | local hum = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
07 | if hum ~= nil then |
08 | hum.Health = hum.Health -10 |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 | end |

13 | rarm.Touched:connect(dmg) |
14 | larm.Touched:connect(dmg) |
