"CharacterAdded is not a valid member of Players?"
How do i make a NPC look like a player ingame. I've done a ton of searching and seem to not get the answer. I'm trying to make it animated too at the same time.
Example: https://prnt.sc/kld0zl (a photo shows that a player is next to a model that looks just like them but without a hat.)
script:
game.Players.CharacterAdded.RBXScriptSignal:Connect():Connect(function(plr)
local cchar = plr.Character:Clone()
cchar:MoveTo(game.Workspace.charspawn.Position)
cchar.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
end)
Error: CharacterAdded is not a valid member of Players

You can check out the PlayerAdded event here. You must set the Archivable property to true before you can edit a players character.
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local function clone(character)
character.Archivable = true
local cloned = character:Clone()
character.Archivable = false
return cloned
end
local function move(clone, newpos)
local torso = clone:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
-- make sure torso is there
if torso then
torso.Anchored = true
clone:MoveTo(newpos)
-- move clone
end
end
players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
-- When a player joins
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
-- When a players character loads
delay(player.DataReady, function()
-- seems to help wait for everything to load
local clonedCharacter = clone(character)
-- clone it
clonedCharacter.Parent = workspace
-- parent it
move(clonedCharacter, Vector3.new(0,5,30) ) end)
-- move it
end)
end)

there's a way to animate it right? TheBuliderMC 84 — 5y

Yes, look up how to load NPC animations. There are relevant tutorials on SH, the dev forum, and on YouTube. Azarth 3141 — 5y
