when you enter a name in the textbox it will get what it says and try to find it in the workspace I have defined it by "plrName" but it searches for the actual name not from the variable any help
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Admin.killplr
remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local plrName = player.PlayerGui.zxcxzx.Trolling_UI.PlrName.Text
workspace[plrName].Head:Destroy()
end)
yes I have another script but it's not inportant
Well in your script you are searching for player.PlayerGui.zxcxzx.Trolling_UI.PlrName.Text which obviously wont be a valid member on the workspace duh.
What you can do since you used the player argument in the remote event, you can do
local Character = player.Character which will access the players character held in the workspace
or from "player" you can use player.Name to access the playername and use workspace:FindFirstChild(player.Name)
You're trying to get the targeted player by getting it from a textlabel in the GUI. This just won't work and it's messy.
Instead, how about we fire the remote event and have the arguments use the targeted player?
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Admin.killplr
remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(TargetPlayer)
local Character = workspace:FindFirstChild(TargetPlayer)
if Character and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character) then
Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
end
end)
If we were to fire it, it'd be something like this:
local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Admin.killplr
remote:FireServer(PlrName.Text)
