It's supposed to clone the children of Officer into the players that are cops. Help would be appreciated

01local Hunters = {}
02local Cops = {}
03 
04local Officer = game.Workspace.Characters.Officer:GetChildren()
05 
06local Players = game.Players:GetChildren()
07 
08for i,v in pairs(Players) do
09table.insert(Hunters,v)
10end
11 
12function chooseRandomPlayer(fromTeam,toTeam)
13    local randomPlayer = nil
14    repeat
15        randomPlayer = fromTeam[math.random(1,#fromTeam)]
16    until randomPlayer
17    table.insert(toTeam,randomPlayer)
18    for i,v in pairs(Players) do
19        if v.Name == randomPlayer.Name then
20        for z,b in pairs(Players) do
21            if (b.className == "Hat") or (b.className == "CharacterMesh") or (b.className == "Shirt") or (b.className == "Pants") or (b.className == "ShirtGraphic") then
22                b:Remove()
23            end
24            if Cops then
25                Officer.Parent = Cops
26            end
27        end
28        table.remove(fromTeam,i)
29    end
30end
31end
32chooseRandomPlayer(Hunters, Cops)

Please explain what you want the code to do. At a glance, it's not really possible to determine what you *expect* is supposed to happen. adark 5487 — 11y

Try this in place of lines 24-26:

1for _, cop in Cops do
2    for _, bit in Officer do
3        bit:Clone().Parent = cop
4    end
5end

I'm not checking to see if it exist, I'm trying to clone the charactermeshes and the hat into the players that are picked as cops. TREVOR818730 25 — 11y
