This script works in studio but not online?

Asked by 8 years ago
local SetText = script.Parent.Text
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()

function UpdateOldLabels(Parent)
    for i,v in pairs(Parent:GetChildren()) do
        if v.Name:sub(1,4):lower() == "line" then
            local LineNumber = v.Name:sub(5)
            if LineNumber == "12" then
                v:Destroy()
            else
                v.Name = "line"..tostring(tonumber(LineNumber) + 1)
                v.Position = v.Position - UDim2.new(0,0,0,15)
            end

You need to use a LocalScript, which runs locally.

"LocalPlayer" directs a LocalScript to the Player object that the LocalScript is using, but a server script(Simply called, a "script".) cannot use it.

I may be wrong, but I've checked the script exactly five times, and there seems to be no problem if it's a LocalScript, and you said, "this script", so I'm guessing it's a script.

A better answer may be found here: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=LocalScript
