GetPlayerFromCharacter is not a valid member of model?
Here is what it says in the output: "12:35:22.258 - GetPlayerFromCharacter is not a valid member of Model"
The code is here:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(otherPart) |
2 | if not otherPart.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid") then end |
3 | local player = otherPart.Parent:GetPlayerFromCharacter() |
4 | player:Kick("Sucks to be you!") |
5 | end) |

The problem is that GetPlayerFromCharacter is a member of game.Players, not the model.
Instead, you must do this:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(otherPart) |
2 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent) |
3 | if player then |
4 | player:Kick("Sucks to be you!") |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
Note that you should also check to see if the character is a player before trying to kick them. This also renders the first check redundant (it had a few problems anyway).

GetPlayerFromCharacter
GetPlayerFromCharacter was supposed to be a function of Players, but nice try!
Here is the edited script:
1 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(otherPart) |
2 | if not otherPart.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid") then end |
3 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(otherPart.Parent) -- Access Players to call the GetPlayerFromCharacter function!!! |
4 | player:Kick("Sucks to be you!") |
5 | end) |
Don't forget where to access and call different built-in functions the next time you script!
If you have any problems, please leave a comment below. Thank you and I hope this will help you!
