game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded just isn't a thing so I don't know what to do. Please help me get the character instance of teh local player from one localscript whenever the character respawns or spawns in the first time.
Thanks :3
pcall(function()
wait()
game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
print"t"
end)
end)
##Problem:
The reason it doesn't work is because of the :Wait().
The :Wait() yields the script until an event is true, and in your script, the player would have already been in the game which would cause it not to work!
Solution:
Simply remove the wait() function, and your problem is resolved.
Quick fact: :Waits() are usually 0.03 to 0.07 seconds long!
Also you don't really need a pcall in this case, it's up to you if you want to use it, but it isn't needed here!
Thanks, JesseSong!
Remember to place it in starterplayer
Thank you ill try this, but would it work in screengui
no, screengui is only for gui frames. i think you meant startergui, if thats what you meant then no, since you can't get the character in startergui
if you have more question, please comment

game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded does indeed work in local scripts.
It doesnt work for me what can i be doing wrong?
Can you post your code?
Yes
If it doesn't work for you, then you might want to say CharacterAdded in a normal script and fire a remove event to the local script
I stated that i want to do this all in one local script
