Player character Cloning ?
Just wondering what I did wrong? it gives this error: 13:24:32.380 - Workspace.Script:6: attempt to call method 'Clone' (a nil value) If I dont use the pname and put my name in it works fine.
01 | local pname = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | print (pname) |
03 |
04 |
05 |
06 | local ch = game.Workspace.pname:Clone() |
07 |
08 | ch.Name = "character" ..name |
09 |
10 | ch.Parent = game.Lighting |
thanks for helping anyways.

When using LocalPlayer it needs to be in a LocalScript. Also, for some reason you cannot clone the player model because I think by default it's Archivable value is set to false so you can make a for loop to go through and clone everything inside the player model. Here is my version of your code though that does work:
01 | wait(1) -- Need to wait or else you'll get the nil error |
02 | local players = game:GetService("Players") |
03 | local p = players:WaitForChild("PlayerName") |
04 | local plrName = tostring(p) |
05 | print (plrName) |
06 | local m = Instance.new("Model", game.Lighting) -- Model holding your player |
07 |
08 | --For loop that clones everything inside player and then parents it to the Model we made named "m" |
09 | for _, v in pairs(p.Character:GetChildren()) do |
10 | v:Clone().Parent = m |
11 | end |
12 | m.Name = "Character"..plrName |
13 | m:MakeJoints() |
I hope this helped.
