Player is a nil Value?

Asked by
CreeperAssassin005 30

I'm making a game that has a cash IntValue in it and it says that Players.CreeperAssassin005.Backpack.RustyShovel.Script:13: attempt to index local 'player' (a nil value). Any help?

script.Parent.blade.Touched:connect(function(hit)

if script.Parent.CanDamage.Value == true then

script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = false

hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(20)

if hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
local  humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if humanoid ~= nil then
      local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
      local money = player.leaderstats.Cash
      money.Value = money.Value + 999999
end
end
end
end)

try this

script.Parent.blade.Touched:connect(function(hit)

if script.Parent.CanDamage.Value == true then

script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = false

hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(20)

if hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
local  humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if humanoid ~= nil then
if player ~= nil then
      local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
      local money = player.leaderstats.Cash
      money.Value = money.Value + 999999
end
end
end
end
end)

It doesn't have any error messages but it doesn't give my the money... CreeperAssassin005 30 — 6y

Using Print I figured out that the code stops at if player ~= nil then, so this code doesn't work in this state. CreeperAssassin005 30 — 6y

Line 12 has to go after line 13... TheeDeathCaster 2368 — 6y

And if that doesn't work, there is probably something wrong with your tool. Try debugging it before saying it doesn't work. Use print() and warn().
