Why can't I find what a players car name is?

Asked May 17, 2018282 views1 answers

In my game I'm adding a car customizer. When you spawn the car its the players name then an s. EG: 'kittonlover101s' I know how to get the players name, but how do why is the s not being added to the variable? Any help would be appreciated!

local character = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(playername + 's')

✓ Accepted answer

(playername + 's') -- Incorrect

+ does not function like that

You need to do .. instead; .. is the concatenation operator.

Correct format:

local character = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(playername .. 's')
