Why won't the script load the character?

Asked by 9 years ago
game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(function(newPlayer)
    wait(.5)
    newPlayer.CharacterAppearance = "http://www.roblox.com/Asset/CharacterFetch.ashx?userId=42584068&placeId=0"
    local stats = Instance.new("IntValue") 
    stats.Name = "leaderstats"
    local stage = Instance.new("StringValue")
    stage.Name = "Stage" 
    stage.Value = "Tutorial"
    stage.Parent = stats 
    stats.Parent = newPlayer 
    newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(6)
    newPlayer:LoadCharacter()
end)

It doesn't change the character's appearance.

Try and omit "&placeId=0" in the ID. Redbullusa 1580 — 9y

Red, How I did it I had them wait for 15 seconds and then they load. But their WalkSpeed is 0.  I don't  like how  I did it. EzraNehemiah_TF2 3552 — 9y

I think this should work. Try this instead:

game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(function(newPlayer)
    wait(.5)
    newPlayer.CharacterAppearance = "http://www.roblox.com/Asset/CharacterFetch.ashx?userId=42584068&placeId=0"
    local stats = Instance.new("IntValue") 
    stats.Name = "leaderstats"
    local stage = Instance.new("StringValue")
    stage.Name = "Stage" 
    stage.Value = "Tutorial"
    stats.Parent = newPlayer  -- I switched these two. Why? Because you're basically trying to get Stage into a Object, that doesn't exist yet. You need to change the Parent before you can put anything in it. You can change Properties, but you can not put something in it yet. 
    stage.Parent = stats 
    newPlayer.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
    wait(6)
    newPlayer:LoadCharacter()
end)
