Why cant this script index its own parent?
server script:
01 | f = false |
02 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
03 | if not f then |
04 | f = true |
05 | for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do |
06 | if v.Name:match(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name) then |
07 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(v) |
08 | if player.leaderstats.Money.Value >= 15 then |
09 | player.leaderstats.Money.Value = player.leaderstats.Money.Value - 15 |
10 | script.Parent.Parent:Destroy() |
11 | end |
12 | end |
13 | end |
14 | end |
15 | end) |
on line 6 it says
1 | Players.world_kiIIer.PlayerGui.rank.Frame.yes.yes:6: attempt to index field 'Parent' (a nil value) |
why does this happen?

Double check your parent directory, the only feasible error is that you're using too many .Parent addresses, and you eventually called for the parent of the game, which is nil.

no this is not the case, i printed the parent name when it was lots of .Parent to be sure where i was and on line 6 i refer to the local player Gameplayer365247v2 1055 — 5y
