Attempt to index local 'plr' (a nil value)?
I am trying to create a custom admin bar with working admin commands. Right now, I'm trying to make a damage command. The problem is in the server script, line 10.
I'll add the server script and local script (if needed), may anyone tell me what's wrong with my code?
--LOCAL SCRIPT--
wait()
local rf = game:FindFirstChild("ReplicatedStorage").RemoteEvents.apcmd
local ok = script.Parent.submitcmd
local bar = script.Parent.cmdbar
ok.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
rf:FireServer(bar.Text)
end)
--SERVER SCRIPT--
local plrs = game:GetService("Players")
local rf = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.apcmd
rf.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,cmd)
if cmd:sub(1,7) == "damage " then
local plr = plrs:FindFirstChild(cmd:sub(8))
game.Workspace[plr.Name].Humanoid.Health = game.Workspace[plr.Name].Humanoid.Health - cmd:sub(10)
end
end)

ok my second answer. I see the problem.
cmd = "damage "..PlayerName..Damage
In your script use sub(8) that will be PlayerName..Damage so that not the player name.
now try this script.
--SERVER SCRIPT--
local plrs = game:GetService("Players")
local rf = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.apcmd
rf.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,cmd)
if cmd:sub(1,7) == "damage " then
local plr = nil
for _,v in pairs(plrs:GetPlayers())
for i = 8,40,1 do
if cmd:sub(8,i) == v.Name then
plr = v
end
end
end
if plr ~= nil then
plr.Character.Humanoid.Health = plr.Character.Humanoid.Health - cmd:sub(10)
else
print("No Player Found")
end
end
end)

Sorry for a late response, but now I'm getting an error message (attempt to perform arithmetic on a string value)... InstantManager 27 — 5y
