"Attempt to index upvalue 'LocalPlayerName' (a nil value)" How to fix?
I am trying to make a script that creates a folder who's name is the player's name. But it keeps giving me this error: "Attempt to index upvalue 'LocalPlayerName' (a nil value)" Is there a solution for it?
function GetPlayerName(player)
LocalPlayerName = player
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(GetPlayerName)
function MakePlayerFolder()
local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
folder.Name = LocalPlayerName.Name
folder.Parent = game.Workspace.PlayerBuilds
end
MakePlayerFolder()

function MakePlayerFolder(player)
local folder = Instance.new("Folder")
folder.Name = player.Name
folder.Parent = workspace.PlayerBuilds
end
-- in the function above we have the 'player' parameter which allows us to get the player's name.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(MakePlayerFolder)
-- we call the function inside of the PlayerAdded event which will automatically send its 'player' argument to the function.
