Do localscripts recognize int/string/bool values? (Fixed Question)

Asked 290 views1 answers

I have a tool.

In this tool there is a handle

In this handle there is a localscript

And finally, in this localscript there is an intValue.

The name of the intValue is called "Flag"

And so before even doing anything else, an error is thrown when I attempt:

v = script.Flag

And an error is thrown: "Flag is not a valid member of localscript"

I have then tried v = script:findFirstChild("Flag")

Then when I do a conditional if v.Value == 5 then

Another error is thrown "attempt to index global 'Flag' (a nil value)"

Thus I have no idea whats going on.

A bit more information is required, I think. Your error isn't continuous with what you explained as the hierarchy of everything. Why is flag not a valid member of part, when you say the flag is in a tool? Is the Tool named 'part?'

Actually he said the intvalue is inside the LocalScript, and when the Output shows errors it uses ClassNames, however that is irrelevant because we still need more info.

For bugfixing, try putting that code in an if loop that reads:

if script:FindFirstChild("Flag")
end

And if that doesnt work, it's a possibility the error is something as small as the object's name being "flag" instead of "Flag"
