Why does this camera manipulation script work in studio but not play?
local pcam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
wait(2)
pcam.CameraSubject = game.Workspace.CameraFocus
wait()
pcam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
pcam.CFrame = game.Workspace.CameraFocus.CFrame
print("done")
end)
Its supposed to edit the players camera on entrance to the game but it wont do anything for that player

There are a couple of things here: 1. Your script needs to be a LocalScript in order to access CurrentCamera 2. In order for the LocalScript to run it needs to be in one of these places 3. You can either :Clone() the script into the Player's PlayerGui or put the script in game > StarterPlayer > StarterPlayerScripts
Cloning method:
Script:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local camScript = script.LocalScript:Clone();
camScript.Parent = player.PlayerGui;
camScript.Disabled = false;
end);
LocalScript (A child of the Script, this is disabled):
local pcam = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
pcam.CameraSubject = game.Workspace.CameraFocus;
wait();
pcam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable;
pcam.CFrame = game.Workspace.CameraFocus.CFrame;
print("done");
The other method is much simpler for this camera script. You would simply put the script into StarterPlayerScripts inside of StarterPlayer
