PlayerScripts.HealthUp:3: attempt to index nil with 'WaitForChild' how to fix that ?
Please encode Lua code in the Lua block code tag (look for the Lua icon in the editor).
Hi I have a problem, please help me.
01 | local Power = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Power") |
02 | local Char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character |
03 | Char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") |
04 |
05 | local function Set(Regen) |
06 | if Regen == true then |
07 | game.ReplicatedStorage.SetHealth:FireServer(Char, math.floor(100 + Power.Value/10), math.floor(100 + Power.Value/10)) |
08 | else |
09 | game.ReplicatedStorage.SetHealth:FireServer(Char,nil, math.floor(100 + Power.Value/10)) |
10 | end |
11 |
12 | end |
13 |

You added Char. Remove it and it should work fine
1 | local Char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid") |

first make the character variable:
1 | local Char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character or game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:wait() |
and replace the character:waitforchild with:
1 | local humanoid = Char:waitForChild("Humanoid",10) |
or:
1 | repeat wait() until Char:findFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") |

If you want a variable for the humanoid. Don't just do
1 | Char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") |
Instead, add "local Humanoid = " behind it.
1 | local Humanoid = Char:WaitForChild("Humanoid") |
If you want the script to wait until the player is loaded, I'm pretty sure
1 | game.Loaded:Wait() |
does that.
