Unable to cast value to Object?
events.JailPlayer.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, t, username)
game.Players:FindFirstChild(username).TeamColor = BrickColor.new('Mulberry')
game.Players:FindFirstChild(username):LoadCharacter()
events.Jailing:FireClient(username, t)
end)

22:37:12.759 - Stack Begin
22:37:12.761 - Script 'ServerScriptService.devARRESTServer', Line 4
22:37:12.769 - Stack End
Can someone please explain why it is doing this?
When firing the client it ask for the client you are firing :FireClient(playername, arguments) if I remember correctly
Username is returning as the name of the client I want to fire but for some reason it errors.
t returns as a number chose by the person arresting the player

first argument of FireClient is the player object you're firing to. the username variable is a string. make a variable like: local newPlayer = game.Players:FindFirstChild(username), and use that in place of it Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 5y

You need to fire client sending player, not player name
example:
-- ServerScript
local event = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
event:FireClient(player)
end)
-- LocalScript
local event = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent
event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
print("Player added!")
end)
For your script only send player, you can create a variable for check if player exist and do not need to repeat game.Players:FindFirstChild(username)
Fixed script:
events.JailPlayer.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, t, username)
local plr = game.Players:FindFirstChild(username) -- PlayerVariable
if plr then -- Check if player exist
plr.TeamColor = BrickColor.new('Mulberry')
plr:LoadCharacter()
events.Jailing:FireClient(plr, t)
end
end)
