Why is this regen script not working?
The script is supposed to regen a model after a certain amount of time. However, the script doesn't work at all. Output didn't give me anything.
Can someone please help me?
Here's the script:
local Playing = game.ServerScriptService.MainGame:WaitForChild("Playing")
local children = script.Parent:GetChildren()
local Tanks = children:clone()
while wait(10) do
if Playing.Value == true then
children:remove()
wait(0.1)
Tanks.Parent = script.Parent
end
end

its because you're removing the script. HungryJaffer 1246 — 9y

He's right, and i dont understand why you're using a getchildren, just clone the model :l Codebot 85 — 9y

Actually, I think scripts continue to run after being destroyed. The script above doesn't even destroy itself. IDidMakeThat 1135 — 9y

The problem is probably that you are trying to call remove() on children. children is a table of Instances, not an Instance itself. To remove all Instances in children, use a generic for loop, like so:
local Playing = game.ServerScriptService.MainGame:WaitForChild("Playing")
local children = script.Parent:GetChildren()
local Tanks = children:clone()
while wait(10) do
if Playing.Value == true then
for i, v in ipairs(children) do
v:Destroy() -- Note that remove() is deprecated.
end
wait(0.1)
Tanks.Parent = script.Parent
end
end
Also, I believe you should put the main game script somewhere like the workspace, since I don't think scripts in the ServerScriptService can interact with the game world, and that is probably the problem you're having in the first place.
