Why is plr.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char) Not working???
This is a script I composed to change any character that joins the game's clothing:
1 | plr.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char) |
2 | player.Pants.PantsTemplate = 182807730 |
3 | player.Shirt.ShirtTemplate = 182807618 |
4 | end) |
Basically, when I try to run this, my character's clothing flashes grey (loading the texture I assume) then going to what my character is set to look like. (Not what the PantsTemplate / ShirtTemplate is set to in the script) What am I doing wrong

Is this a script or a localscript? GoldenPhysics 474 — 8y

This isn't anywhere near a full script.
How do you get plr? Where is it defined? It isn't. Along with that, the Pants and Shirt are in the character, not the player, which again you don't define.
To get the player I suggest the PlayerAdded function.
1 | -- Regular Script in ServerScriptService |
2 | --// Services |
3 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
4 |
5 | --\\ Code |
6 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
7 |
8 | end) |
Cool! Now we have the player; let's get the character. We can get the character with the CharacterAdded event.
01 | -- Regular Script in ServerScriptService |
02 | --// Services |
03 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
04 |
05 | --\\ Code |
06 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
07 | plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) |
08 |
09 | end) |
10 | end) |
Now we should be able to add your code:
01 | -- Regular Script in ServerScriptService |
02 | --// Services |
03 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
04 |
05 | --\\ Code |
06 | Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
07 | plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) |
08 | char:WaitForChild("Pants").PantsTemplate = 182807731 |
09 | char:WaitForChild("Shirt").ShirtTemplate = 182807619 |
10 | end) |
11 | end) |

Probably has to do with the PantsTemplate and stuff. Might need to be a string. OldPalHappy 1477 — 8y
