How to use local/global variables in a hierarchy string?[FIXED]
I am making a script, to find a certain object it needs to use a global variable in it (plyr)! How can I get it to use that variable? Here is that part of my script
print("loading")
plyr = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name
print(plyr)
char = workspace.plyr --this little guy!
anim = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
Fixed
print("loading")
plyr = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name
print(plyr)
char = workspace[plyr] --this little guy!
anim = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
Please help!!! Thank you!!!

you could easily find the character by writing "script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character" if "plyr" is set to the value of the player's Name property. ImageLabel 1541 — 9y

You're looking for an object with the name "plyr" and not the object with the name of the value of the variable plyr. Instead, write char=workspace:FindFirstChild(plyr)
