How do I make this localscript wait for the character before it runs?
Okay so I got this and it works perfectly fine in testmode but it doesn't do anything at all in a normal server, does anyone know what is the problem?
01 | player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | system = game.workspace.system |
03 |
04 |
05 | function onDeath() |
06 | system.playersalive.Value = system.playersalive.Value -1 |
07 | player.CameraMode="Classic" |
08 | system.joindeadmsg.Value = player.Name .. " has died." |
09 | end |
10 |
11 | player.Character.Humanoid.Died:connect(onDeath) |
OUTPUT:
14:46:41.106 - Players.Player1.PlayerGui.maingui.ondead:10: attempt to index field 'Character' (a nil value)
14:46:41.106 - Stack Begin
14:46:41.107 - Script 'Players.Player1.PlayerGui.maingui.ondead', Line 10
14:46:41.108 - Stack End

Use the :WaitForChild() event
Example
1 | local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | local Character = Player:WaitForChild("Character") |
