23:54:35.755 Argument 1 missing or nil error? making projectile.
Please provide more explanation in your question. If you explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish, it will be much easier to answer your question correctly.
i need help with an error, when making my projectile it keeps saying, 23:54:35.755 Argument 1 missing or nil, and i've tried to fix the problem many times but it wouldnt work.
script.Parent.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, character)
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local root = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local fbtime = 4
local MuseProjectile = game.ReplicatedStorage.Part:Clone()
MuseProjectile.Parent = workspace
MuseProjectile.CFrame = root.CFrame * CFrame.new (0,0,-2)
game.Debris:AddItem(MuseProjectile, fbtime)
local bodyvel = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
bodyvel.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1e8, 1e8,1e8)
bodyvel.Velocity = root.CFrame.LookVector * 80
bodyvel.Parent = MuseProjectile
local debounce = false
MuseProjectile.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.isDescendantOf(char) then
return
end
if hit.Parent:IsA("Accoutrement") then
hit = hit.Parent
end
local enemyhumanoid = hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local enemyroot = hit.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
if enemyhumanoid and not debounce then
debounce = true
MuseProjectile:Destroy()
local HitM = game.ReplicatedStorage.Fire:Clone()
HitM.Parent = enemyroot
spawn(function()
wait(.5)
HitM.Enabled = false
wait(.6)
HitM.Destroy()
end)
enemyhumanoid:TakeDamage(25)
wait()
debounce = false
end
end)
end)

In line 17, you should use colon when using functions like Instance:IsDescendantOf()
script.Parent.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, character)
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local root = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local fbtime = 4
local MuseProjectile = game.ReplicatedStorage.Part:Clone()
MuseProjectile.Parent = workspace
MuseProjectile.CFrame = root.CFrame * CFrame.new (0,0,-2)
game.Debris:AddItem(MuseProjectile, fbtime)
local bodyvel = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
bodyvel.MaxForce = Vector3.new(1e8, 1e8,1e8)
bodyvel.Velocity = root.CFrame.LookVector * 80
bodyvel.Parent = MuseProjectile
local debounce = false
MuseProjectile.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit:IsDescendantOf(char) then -- line that had the error
return
end
if hit.Parent:IsA("Accoutrement") then
hit = hit.Parent
end
local enemyhumanoid = hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local enemyroot = hit.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
if enemyhumanoid and not debounce then
debounce = true
MuseProjectile:Destroy()
local HitM = game.ReplicatedStorage.Fire:Clone()
HitM.Parent = enemyroot
task.spawn(function()
task.wait(.5)
HitM.Enabled = false
task.wait(.6)
HitM.Destroy()
end)
enemyhumanoid:TakeDamage(25)
task.wait()
debounce = false
end
end)
end)

If you are using Instance.IsDescendantOf(), you have to specify the instance itself, like
--These two are the same Instance.IsDescendantOf(Instance, char) Instance:IsDescendantOf(char)
it automatically passes itself, useful for object-oriented programming
