I keep getting this error - Player1 is not a valid member of Workspace, Can anyone help me?
local character = game.Workspace.Player1
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
if player then
print("Player is " .. player.Name)
else
print("Player doesn't exist!")
end

One way to fix this would be to use :WaitForChild() now I'm not sure if this is the best method, but it works :)
local character = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Player1")
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
if player then
print("Player is " .. player.Name)
else
print("Player doesn't exist!")
end
Elaborate The error "Player1 is not a valid member of Workspace" is displaced because the script ran before the character loaded, so the player wasn't part of Workspace.

When you post/edit the question there is a Lua code logo on top of the textbox where you write the question, click on it and put your code in the middle. Omarstein 100 — 7y
