Help with ClickDetector?
I'm a little rusty on Lua and I forgot how to get the name of the player from a ClickDetector
This is all I got
function onClicked(click)
if click.Parent.Name == "Player1" then
print("worked")
else return
end
end
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)
Any help? Kinda clueless...

Actually you're not that far off!
Typically I like to call the function right off, so this is what I'll do.
In Click functions, the argument is actually the player itself!
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(click)-- This is a more efficient way of calling your function!
if click.Name == "Player1" then -- What you were doing was asking for the game.Players's name!
print("worked")
else return
end
end)

Wouldn't "click" return a nil value on line 2 since you named the player argument "Click" on line 1? M39a9am3R 3210 — 9y
