This is my attempt.
plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until plr.Character
for _,v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
end
end
while wait(1) do
if v then
v:Destroy()
end
end
Why can't v be detected outside of the for loop?
You're finding the tool, but you're not doing anything with it. The while loop doesn't know what the variable v is, because it is defined locally in the for loop. Just use the code in the for loop instead.
plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until plr.Character
for _,v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
v:Destroy()
end
end
If you do want to find v outside of the loop, then you only need to make a variable for it.
plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local tool;
repeat wait() until plr.Character
for _,v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
tool = v
end
end
while wait(1) do
if tool then
v:Destroy()
end
end
the variable v can't be detected outside of the loop because v is a local variable inside the for loop. You would have to define a global or local value before and change its content like this:
plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
tool = nil
repeat wait() until plr.Character
for _,v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Tool") then
tool = v
end
end
while wait(1) do
if tool then
tool:Destroy()
end
end
Also I'd propose to you to make the while loop a coroutine to not catch the script in it.
