humanoid is not a valid member of model?
hey guys i just picked up scripting today and am attempting to create a dummy that dies when they are clicked and then respawn. Honestly i dont know what im doing but so far i havent been stuck on something for this long. Basically the dummy does respawn once killed but clicking on them again does nothing and they dont die. I then get the error in the title, if you guys could help me i would be very grateful. I did look this up before posting and found that this happens if the script tries to find the humanoid before it exists but the humanoid is always there long before the script tries to find it so idk. Here is my script
local pdummy = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]["Player Dummy"]
local spdummy = game.ServerStorage["Player Dummy"]
local clickdetector = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]["Player Dummy"]["HumanoidRootPart"]["ClickDetector"]
clickdetector.MouseClick:Connect (function()
pdummy.Torso.WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy.Head.WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Left Leg"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Right Leg"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Left Arm"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Right Arm"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
wait(0.1)
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion",pdummy)
explosion.BlastRadius = 5
explosion.ExplosionType = Enum.ExplosionType.NoCraters
explosion.Position = pdummy.Torso.Position
explosion.BlastPressure = 500000
explosion.DestroyJointRadiusPercent = 0
pdummy.Head.oof.Playing = true
pdummy.Humanoid.Health = 0
wait (2)
end)
while true do
wait(5)
if pdummy.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
pdummy:Destroy()
copy=spdummy:clone()
spdummy.Parent = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]
spdummy = pdummy
end

There are few issues with your script. First of all, when you are cloning the dummy, instead of parenting the clone (copy), you are parenting the template. Correct code should look like this:
pdummy:Destroy()
copy = spdummy:clone()
copy.Parent = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]
pdummy = copy --copy is now the new dummy
Now the more serious problem. Your click detector connection is still connected to the old (now destroyed) dummy. You have to make a new connection everytime a new dummy appears. So your whole script should look like this:
local pdummy = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]["Player Dummy"]
local spdummy = game.ServerStorage["Player Dummy"]
local clickdetector = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]["Player Dummy"]["HumanoidRootPart"]["ClickDetector"]
local function OnClick() --name your function, so you can reuse it
pdummy.Torso.WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy.Head.WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Left Leg"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Right Leg"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Left Arm"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
pdummy["Right Arm"].WeldConstraint.Enabled = false
wait(0.1)
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion",pdummy)
explosion.BlastRadius = 5
explosion.ExplosionType = Enum.ExplosionType.NoCraters
explosion.Position = pdummy.Torso.Position
explosion.BlastPressure = 500000
explosion.DestroyJointRadiusPercent = 0
pdummy.Head.oof.Playing = true
pdummy.Humanoid.Health = 0
wait (2)
end
clickdetector.MouseClick:Connect (OnClick) --connect here
while true do
wait(5)
if pdummy.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
pdummy:Destroy()
copy = spdummy:clone()
copy.Parent = game.Workspace["respawning dummy 1"]
pdummy = copy
--make the new connection
clickdetector = pdummy["HumanoidRootPart"]["ClickDetector"] --click detector from the new clone
clickdetector.MouseClick:Connect (OnClick) -- connect clone (copy) clickdetector
end
Have a nice scripting session!
EDIT: BTW, do not worry about disconnecting the old connection as server will do that automatically during Destroy() function.
