I basically made a flamethrower, and I wanted anything near a brick that has fire in it, damage something that is near it, making it seem real. However, it's not returning the humanoid in the findNearestTorso() function, and now I'm stuck! I need help with why it's not returning the humanoid. Here's the Error: 22:37:57.897 - Players.Player.Backpack.Flamethrower.Gun_Control:27: bad argument #2 to '?' (Vector3 expected, got nil) 22:37:57.898 - Script 'Players.Player.Backpack.Flamethrower.Gun_Control', Line 27 - global findNearestTorso 22:37:57.900 - Script 'Players.Player.Backpack.Flamethrower.Gun_Control', Line 55 - global MouseDown 22:37:57.901 - Script 'Players.Player.Backpack.Flamethrower.Gun_Control', Line 79 22:37:57.901 - Stack End

function findNearestTorso(pos)
	local list = game.Workspace:GetChildren()
	local torso = nil
	local dist = 5
	local temp = nil
	local human = nil
	local temp2 = nil
	for x = 1, #list do
		temp2 = list[x]
		if (temp2.className == "Model") and (temp2 ~= script.Parent) and (temp2.Name == "LMADer") or (temp2.Name == "Vaktus") or (temp2.Name == "BC") then
			temp = temp2:findFirstChild("Head")
			human = temp2:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
			local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(temp2)
			if (temp ~= nil) and (human ~= nil) and (human.Health > 0) and not player then
				if (temp.Position - pos).magnitude < dist then
					torso = temp
					dist = (temp.Position - pos).magnitude
				end
			elseif (temp ~= nil) and (human ~= nil) and (human.Health > 0) and player.TeamColor ~= BrickColor.new("Bright blue") then

					torso = temp

	end
	return human
end

MouseDown = function(mouse)
	local creator = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
