You did not define a player with the OnSEAT() function. You just did OnSEAT() without any porperties.

01local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local Seats = {
03    workspace["Model [2] Alpha Series of Class: Paired Dual Main Battery Station"].Seat,
04    workspace["Model [2] Bravo Series of Main Battery Class "].Seat,
05    workspace["Model [3] Charlie Series of Main Battery Class "].Seat
06}
07for i, Seat in pairs(Seats) do
08    local RemoteEvents = game.ServerStorage["Begin[N]End"]
09    local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
10    local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
11    local SeatProperty = Seat.Occupant
12 
13    Seat.Changed:Connect(function(Properties)
14        local function OnSEAT(Player)
15            if SeatProperty ~= nil then
16                RemoteEvents.Parent = ReplicatedStorage
17                Player.DevEnableMouseLock = false
18 
19            elseif Properties == "Occupant" and SeatProperty == nil then
20                RemoteEvents.Parent = ServerStorage
21                Player.DevEnableMouseLock = true
22            end
23        end
24        OnSEAT(plr)
25    end)
26end

I'm assuming it's in a LocalScript.

Sorry! I meant parameters / arguments not properties. yx10055 57 — 4y

ohhhh you were sooo wrong i used server script it was kinda my fault proROBLOXkiller5 112 — 4y
