FireClient: player argument must be a Player object?
Hello,
So, I keep getting errors, not sure how to fix it. "FireClient: player argument must be a Player object"
local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local plankRemote = repStorage:WaitForChild("plankRemote")
local planksTrigger = game.Workspace.FallingPlanks.PlankTrigger
planksTrigger.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if player then
print("touched")
plankRemote:FireClient(player)
end
end)
Help is very much appreciated!

The problem is that you're referencing the character as the player value. the FireClient function requires that you have the player object as the input, not the character.
local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local plankRemote = repStorage:WaitForChild("plankRemote")
local planksTrigger = game.Workspace.FallingPlanks.PlankTrigger
planksTrigger.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if player then
print("touched")
plankRemote:FireClient(game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(player))
end
end)

Thank you, although I'm now getting this error: " Player is not a valid member of DataModel"; any ideas? Similaritea 58 — 5y

Oops it was supposed to be game.Players not game.Player. Vinceberget 1420 — 5y
