Player Requirement Check Not Working?

Asked 202 views1 answers

Hello! I was wondering why this script will not work. It should check that the player has the correct requirements in order to proceed onto the next stage. Would I have to wait for the child, find the first child, create an in pairs loop of will it be something else?

ReqAge = 20
GroupID = 000000

script.Parent.Parent.BEGIN.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(player)
	if player ~= nil then
		if player.AccountAge < ReqAge then
		player:Kick("You Must Be Atleast 20 Days Old To Apply!")
		if player:IsInGroup(GroupID) == nil then
			player:Kick("You Have Join The Group!")
			if player:IsInGroup(GroupID) and player:GetRankInGroup(GroupID) == 2 then
				player:Kick("You Have Been Suspended")
				
			else 
				script.Parent.Parent.Parent.STAGE1.Visible = false
			end
		end
	end
	end
end)

Thanks.

place a 'end' to close line 8 at line 10, this should fix

You can use a 'elseif' too

Oh, ok, I will try to have a play around to see what I get.

Can you be more specific about what is not working? Where does it fail ( have you debugged ? )

ReqAge = 20
GroupID = 000000

script.Parent.Parent.BEGIN.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(player)
  if player ~= nil then
     local rank = player:GetRankInGroup(GroupID)
     if player.AccountAge < ReqAge then
       player:Kick("You Must Be Atleast 20 Days Old To Apply!")
     --elseif player:IsInGroup(GroupID) == nil then 
     elseif rank == 0 then
       player:Kick("You Have to Join The Group!")
    --elseif player:IsInGroup(GroupID) and player:GetRankInGroup(GroupID) == 2 then
    elseif rank == 2 then
       player:Kick("You Have Been Suspended")
    else 
         script.Parent.Parent.Parent.STAGE1.Visible = false
    end
  end
end)

note that the rank will be 0 if not a member, so IsInGroup() is not strictly needed. (I commented out some lines and replaced them to demonstrate). Also note that using a rank to suspend people may not be a good idea as they can just leave the group and rejoin.

Try to always keep your indentation (whitespace at start of line) neatly to prevent errors like the one in your script! Opening an if-statement (or else/elseif, function, for loop, etc) code-block moves to the right, closing it moves indentation to the left.
