local sp = script.Parent
local db = true
local LocalP = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Player = LocalP.Character
local Azarth = script.Parent.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash
local Azarth2 = script.Parent.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash2
local Azarth3 = script.Parent.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash3
local Azarth4 = script.Parent.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash4
local Bot = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Suit
local Flash = Bot.Arm1.Middle:WaitForChild("FinalArmCharge")
local Flash2 = Bot.Chest.Middle:WaitForChild("FinalCharge")

sp.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    if hit and hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") and db then 
        db = false
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        if player.PlayerGui:findFirstChild("Option") then 
            Azarth:Clone().Parent = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Option"):WaitForChild("Frame")
            Azarth2:Clone().Parent = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Option"):WaitForChild("Frame")
            Azarth3:Clone().Parent = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Option"):WaitForChild("Frame")
            Azarth4:Clone().Parent = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("Option"):WaitForChild("Frame")
        Flash:Clone().Parent = Player.Arm1.Middle
        Flash:Clone().Parent = Player.Arm2.Middle
        Flash2:Clone().Parent = Player.Chest.Middle
        end
        wait()
        db = true
    end
end)

this is the whole script but then it tells me "attempt to index local 'LocalP' (a nil value)". any way to counter this?

Is this a local script or a script? Prestory 1395 — 5y

it's a script, localplayer is not in scripts because it runs on the server so it doesn't know which player is you, but localscript is on the client. supermariodeadtolive 55 — 5y

change "LocalPlayer" to "SirTottenhamcake"  OR put the script in "StarterPlayer" > "StarterPlayerScripts" and change "game.Players.LocalPlayer" into "script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent" (works or not works based on your Parenting System) supermariodeadtolive 55 — 5y

script is meant to work by touching a part which clones a gui into the frame SirTottenhamcake 22 — 5y

Hello,

You seem new to Rbx.Lua.

Things you can learn :

1.LocalPlayer can only be used in a LocalScript.

2.You can use PlayerAdded event to get the joining players.

3.connectis deprecated , it is better to use Connect

--//This Script must be inside of a part//-- 

local db = true
local part = script.Parent
local gui = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild('Gui')--<< Place the gui you want on that path... script.Parent.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash
local Azarth = gui.Opition.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash
local Azarth2 = gui.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash2
local Azarth3 = gui.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash3
local Azarth4 = gui.Option.Frame.ImageButtonFinalFlash4
local Bot = gui.Parent.Parent.Suit
local Flash = Bot.Arm1.Middle:WaitForChild("FinalArmCharge")
local Flash2 = Bot.Chest.Middle:WaitForChild("FinalCharge")

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") and db then -- You cannot hit 'nil'
        db = false
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        if player.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("Option") then
            local g1 = gui:Clone()
            g1.Parent = player.PlayerGui
            Azarth:Clone().Parent = g1.Option.Frame
            Azarth2:Clone().Parent =  g1.Option.Frame
            Azarth3:Clone().Parent =  g1.Option.Frame
            Azarth4:Clone().Parent =  g1.Option.Frame
            --[[Flash:Clone().Parent = 
            Flash:Clone().Parent = player.Arm2.Middle
            Flash2:Clone().Parent = player.Chest.Middle
            ]]--            
        end
    end
    wait()
    db = true
end)

That's all for the script. You need to adjust certain paths and such.

Thank you for reading!
