Hi, I wanted to make a script that changed the part's material but I can't seem to see how to do it...
local text = script.Parent --The text is "Brick"
part.Material = text.Text
and I get:
Invalid value "Bricks" for enum Material
Why? Please help! Thanks!
This is because Bricks is not an existing material Enum. It’s best you take a look at the list of BasePart materials to see what you can actually apply to the part before making an assumption.
This material exists however, it’s simply just called Brick instead of Bricks
It is also a poor practice to assign Enums via String. Use the Enum keyword and assign the respectful material this way:
local Material = script.Parent.Text
Part.Material = Enum.Material[Material]

To change Material we use enum value, but in your script you use string value.
