Why does this script always print "nil" instead of the body parts?
im trying to make a thing like when u click a part it scans the players which r touching the part, i wanted to test out GetTouchingParts() so i made it so whatever items are touching the part, it prints their name. when i go inside the part and click scan, it just prints nil 4 times here is the script
01 | local clickdetector = script.Parent.ClickDetector |
02 | local scanpart = game.Workspace.SCANPART |
03 | local touchingparts |
04 |
05 | script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function() |
06 | wait(1.5) |
07 | touchingparts = scanpart:GetTouchingParts() |
08 | print(touchingparts[1]) |
09 | print(touchingparts[2]) |
10 | print(touchingparts[3]) |
11 | print(touchingparts[4]) |
12 | end) |

Its because you defined local at top as nil so it will print nil just delete the local touchingparts part

The variable 'touchingparts' has no value, so saying 'print(touchingparts[#])' will print Nil dxrrevn 13 — 3y
