Argument 1 missing or nil on my story game code from Ponchokings ?

Asked by

3 years ago

I've tried redoing it in a new baseplate but that does not work, the first time I did this it worked but I accidentally deleted the gameScript now it gives Argument 1 missing or nil

16:52.756  Argument 1 missing or nil  -  Server - gameScript:10
16:52.756  Stack Begin  -  Studio
16:52.756  Script 'ServerScriptService.gameScript', Line 10 - function getPlayerImage  -  Studio - gameScript:10
16:52.756  Script 'ServerScriptService.gameScript', Line 78 - function challenge_1  -  Studio - gameScript:78
16:52.756  Script 'ServerScriptService.gameScript', Line 128 - function startGame  -  Studio - gameScript:128
16:52.756  Script 'ServerScriptService.gameScript', Line 136  -  Studio - gameScript:136
16:52.756  Stack End  -  Studio

this is the code that break it

01local randomPlayerName
02local randomPlayerId
03 
04local function getPlayerImage(player_id)
05    local content, isReady = game:GetService("Players"):GetUserThumbnailAsync(player_id, Enum.ThumbnailType.HeadShot, Enum.ThumbnailSize.Size420x420)
06    return content
07end
08 
09local function getRandomPlayer()
10    local players = game.Players:getPlayers()
11    local number = math.random(1,#players)
12    local randomPlayer = players[number]
13    randomPlayerName = randomPlayer.Name
14    randomPlayerId = randomPlayer.UserId
15end

idk why it broke it worked the first time but broke at the second time I copied this from Ponchokings Video The link he gave my CreateDialogueEvent:

01local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local CreateDialogueEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.CreateDialogueEvent
03local DialogueFrame = player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame
04 
05local function playSound(sound_id) -- Plays typing sound
06    local sound = Instance.new("Sound",game.ReplicatedStorage)
07    sound.SoundId = sound_id
08    sound.Volume = .1
09    sound.PlayOnRemove = true
10    sound:Destroy()
11end
12 
13local function textAnimate(content) -- Animates each letter
14    for i=1,string.len(content) do
15        DialogueFrame.TextLabel.Text = string.sub(content,1,i)
16        playSound("rbxassetid://915576050")
17        if string.sub(content,i,i) == "!" or string.sub(content,i,i) == "." or string.sub(content,i,i) == "?" then
18            wait(1)
19        elseif  string.sub(content,i,i) == "," then
20            wait(.5)
21        else
22            wait(.05)
23        end
24    end
25end
26 
27CreateDialogueEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(image_id, content) -- activates when called from the Server
28    if not player:findFirstChild("secretEnding") then
29        DialogueFrame.ImageLabel.Image = image_id
30        DialogueFrame.TextLabel.Text = ""
31        DialogueFrame.Visible = true
32        textAnimate(content)
33    end
