Hello everyone, It should change brick color on team color, but probably something is wrong.

Here is script:

view source
01local ting = 0
02 
03function OnTouch (CLight)
04        if ting == 0 then
05        ting = 1
06        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.Ball.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
07        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C1.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
08        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C2.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
09        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C3.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
10        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C4.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
11        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C5.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
12        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C6.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
13        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C7.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
14        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C8.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor
15        script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights.C9.BrickColor = game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor

I think you did 2 things wrong: 1. You have server script (LocalPlayer is nil in server scripts). 2. Your script in Workspace (LocalScripts doesn't work in Workspace) Mokiros 135 — 9y

It's not in Workspace. It's in CLight part. DevKarolus1 70 — 9y

When people say something is in the Workspace, they mean that it is a descendant of Workspace. (CLight part is in the workspace, or its parent is, or its parent parent is, or its parent parent parent is, etc) Validark 1580 — 9y

First off, I recommend you learn the 'for' statement, as it makes functions such as these much easier

Second, what does 'ting' do? I am assuming it is a debounce (Though it does not work correctly).

Thirdly, is this a 'Script' or 'LocalScript'? As LocalPlayer returns nil in 'Script' objects.

Test this code out to see if I have corrected your issue:

view source
01local DebounceTime = 0.5
02 
03local Debounce = false
04local Lights = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Lights
05 
06 -- Touch events return the part that touched the object they were called from
07local OnTouch = function(Part)
08    local Humanoid = Part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") -- Checks to see whether the parent is a character
09    if Humanoid then
10        local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Humanoid.Parent) -- Tries to get the player that touched it
11        if Player then
12            if not Debounce then -- Makes sure a touched event hasn't already fired before the time you want it to
13                Debounce = true
14 
15                local Color = Player.TeamColor
