Choose A Random Pet From A table?
local RP = game.ReplicatedStorage
local Directory = {
Pets = {
["Dog"] = {
Name = "Dog",
Rarity = "Common",
Level = "1"
},
["Cat"] = {
Name = "Cat",
Rarity = "Common",
Level = "1"
}
}
}
RP["OpenEgg"].OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, arg1, arg2)
local Pet = Directory.Pets[math.random(1, #Directory.Pets)]
print(Pet)
end)
its telling me #Directory.Pets is 0 when it clearly isnt

rather then using math.random i prefer to use the Random.new()
for example
local rng = Random.new() print(rng:NextInteger(5, 10)) -- will print a value between 5 and 10

you should use math.random(number) to get a random number to use as a randomizer to pick a pet from the table
