This script is supposed to copy a persons name to a String Value, but it doesn't?
Basically when you click a button it saves your name to a String Value but it doesn't
local canspawn = script.Parent.CanSpawn
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(clicked)
if canspawn.Value == true then
local newrocket = game.ReplicatedStorage["Suicide Rocket"]:Clone()
newrocket.Parent = game.Workspace
newrocket:MoveTo(Vector3.new(-11.289, 1.092, 4.096))
newrocket.Name.Value = clicked
canspawn.Value = false
end
end)
The error is: Workspace.Spawn A Rocket!.Head.Spawner:8: attempt to index field 'Name' (a string value)

I found out why it isn't working now. There is a string value in the clone called Name but the script is getting confused on which one to go by. But thank you all for your awnsers! Thelegendofglitcher2 49 — 7y

Why make a value in the world if you can just make a variable for the script? hiimgoodpack 2009 — 7y

Well I have two scripts that communicate with each other, if I had a variable, the other script wouldn't be able to read it. Thelegendofglitcher2 49 — 7y

You're trying to access a string value's non-existing string value.
newrocket.Name.Value
Names don't have values or properties. They're just strings. If you only want to access a path to the name just remove .Value. Otherwise, take off .Name.
If you want it to put the value as the player's name then set the .Value not that incorrect way of accessing Value.
