"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?
01 | function GetPlayerName(player) |
02 | LocalPlayerName = player |
03 | end |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(GetPlayerName) |
05 |
06 | function MakePlayerFolder() |
07 | local folder = Instance.new("Folder") |
08 | folder.Name = LocalPlayerName.Name |
09 | folder.Parent = game.Workspace.PlayerBuilds |
10 | end |
11 | MakePlayerFolder() |

1 | function MakePlayerFolder(player) |
2 | local folder = Instance.new("Folder") |
3 | folder.Name = player.Name |
4 | folder.Parent = workspace.PlayerBuilds |
5 | end |
6 | -- in the function above we have the 'player' parameter which allows us to get the player's name. |

8 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(MakePlayerFolder) |
9 | -- we call the function inside of the PlayerAdded event which will automatically send its 'player' argument to the function. |
