How do I go about fixing my CameraSubject not switching?

Asked 162 views2 answers

LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts I am basically making a script where you go into a magnitude of a block, a gui pops up you click e and then more guis pop up. From there you can then naviage left or right (what Im trying to do) but there seems to be an issue with it( On my second stepped) I have it print my characters name for the first time I prompt it to, but not the second, which is very startling because of everything appearing to meet my conditions.

(long script)

error would appear to be under "-- // Manuvering through the shop \\ --" at the very bottom

Too much code. Can you try and crop it down to where the problem might be occurring if possible?

Next time, just post the part of the script where you are having the problems.

I had this same problem a while back and I fixed it very simply using a script like this:

local character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
		
if character then
	local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	camera.CameraSubject = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
end

OK. It's not an incorrect answer. It may just be incorrect for your script. And I didn't ask for an upvote
