Why does my script crash every time I test it out?
I have a script that creates a "ghost" of the character. It's kinda like a very short trail that is the player. Whenever I run it, it crashes. Why?
01 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
02 | plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) |
03 | while true do |
04 | wait(.1) |
05 | local getd = char:GetDescendants() |
06 | if char:FindFirstChild("Folder") then |
07 | char.Folder:Destroy() |
08 | end |
09 | for i,v in pairs(getd) do |
10 | if v.ClassName == "UnionOperation" or v.ClassName == "Part" then |
11 | if v.Name ~= "Torso" or v.Name ~= "Middle" then |
12 | local folder = Instance.new("Folder") |
13 | local clone = v:Clone() |
14 | folder.Parent = char |
15 | folder.Name = "Folder" |

It might be because you are trying to perform many different operations in less than .1 seconds. Experiment with the wait time... Pojoto 329 — 6y

Your script is most likely crashing due to you attempting to loop through all of the character's descendants and then trying to clone and change all of them instantly. I would, like pojoto said, suggest adding a wait() in your loop. Also, you're using a while true do loop with another loop embedded inside, with no wait time, while also constantly cloning a folder and then deleting it over and over again.
