Script = Nil is not working in my ModuleScript, does anyone have a solution?
Hi, so I am extremely new to module scripts, and I want to ensure security on my script. I have tried putting 'script = nil' everywhere, but it seems to return an error. WO10: Built-in global 'script' is overwritten here; consider using a local or changing the name. Any suggestions?

That doesn't make scripts any more secure. User#19524 175 — 6y

Module scripts are already secure if they are in a location the client cannot access. I have no idea why on earth you would write script = nil. It makes absolutely 0 sense. User#21908 42 — 6y

I only use `script = nil` when working with Private Modules anyway. Elsewhere, you do not really need it at all. If you are using a Private Module, make sure you have uploaded on Roblox and named it "MainModule". Zafirua 1348 — 6y
