A really weird Module error not sure what it is?

Asked 185 views1 answers

I'm not sure why this isnt working! I did get this error tho,

22:33:31.904 - Requested module experienced an error while loading

Server Script:


local Make = require(script.MakeBrick)

Make("AmazingPart", BrickColor.new('Lime green'), Enum.Material.Neon, game.Workspace)

Module Script:

function MakeBrick(Name, Color, Material, Parent)
local Part = Instance.new('Part', Parent)
Part.Name = Name
Part.BrickColor = Color
Part.Material = Material
Part.Anchored = true
Part.CFrame = game.Workspace.SpawnLocation.CFrame
end

return MakeBrick()

Read your output. It says that the "request module experienced an error while loading".

What is that error? It says

09:14:06.321 - ServerScriptService.Script.MakeBrick:3: bad argument #3 to 'Name' (string expected, got nil)

09:14:06.323 - Stack Begin

09:14:06.324 - Script 'ServerScriptService.Script.MakeBrick', Line 3 - global MakeBrick

09:14:06.324 - Script 'ServerScriptService.Script.MakeBrick', Line 10

09:14:06.324 - Stack End

Why is the modulescript calling MakeBrick on line 10?

return MakeBrick()

That's clearly not right. MakeBrick doesn't return anything, so this can't be correct.

You want the ModuleScript to give other people the function itself, so you can't call it for them.

The last line of the ModuleScript should be modified to be

return MakeBrick
-- without parentheses!
