attempt to index local 'acplayer' (a nil value)?
Sorry for posting so often, but whenever I try my script that changes a player's skin color I get this error Players.UNBANhappyniceguy5.PlayerGui.Skin Color:5: attempt to index local 'acplayer' (a nil value)
local player = script.Parent.Parent
local acplayer = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(player)
wait(1)
acplayer['Body Colors'].HeadColor = BrickColor.new('Pastel brown')

local acplayer = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(player.Name) awesomeipod 607 — 5y

It looks like you're using a serverscript. Try doing this if your game is filtering enabled:
1. add a RemoteEvent to game.ReplicatedStorage and call it ColorEvent
add a localscript on the starter gui
add a serverscript on the workspace
in the localscript add this
game.ReplicatedStorage.ColorEvent:FireServer()
- in the serverscript add this
game.ReplicatedStorage.ColorEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(acplayer)
acplayer.Character['Body Colors'].HeadColor = BrickColor.new('Pastel brown') -- You forgot to put in "Character"!
end)
If your game is experimental mode (I don't recommend) then just turn the script into a LocalScript.
Also if you didn't know ServerScript = a normal script

Hold on I'm going to test the script and see if it fully works if it doesn't I can edit it. mudathir2007 157 — 5y

Ohh. You also can't just do player["body colors"], you must do player.Character["Body Colors"](Try out my edited answer) mudathir2007 157 — 5y

I tried acplayer.Character['Body Colors'].HeadColor = BrickColor.new('Pastel brown') but it still gives that passed value is not a function error UNBANhappyniceguy5 52 — 5y

There are a few questions to ask before going deeper: 1. Is your game Filtering Enabled? 2. Did you follow the instructions? 3. Did you close the function with a ')' ? 4. Am I clear? I need to make sure XD | And the script worked pretty well for me. mudathir2007 157 — 5y

it has something to do with r15 and r6, in r15 it works but not with r6 UNBANhappyniceguy5 52 — 5y
