Workspace.Startevent.Changed:connect(function()
    local selk = workspace:IsA('Humanoid')
    selk.Parent.Seeker.Value = true
    repeat
        wait()
    until sek == 1
    workspace.GameInProgress.Value = true
    t = 20  --game time
    repeat
        wait(1)
        t = t-1
        print(t)
        if gameend.Value then
            t = 0
        end
    until t == 0
    wait(0.1)
    t = 20
    gameend.Value = true
    wait(0.1)
    gameend.Value = false
end)

the script is trying to locate a BoolValue inside a player model

it would be like this:

local BoolValue = Humanoid.Parent.Seeker

Dont get me wrong, it locates the BoolValue but it puts out an error:

Workspace.GameStart:47: attempt to index local 'selk' (a boolean value)

Any ideas?

What are you trying to do? workspace obviously is not a humanoid. And IsA() returns a bool value, so it doesn't have a parent, Perci1 4988 — 10y

Trying to do" selk = workspace:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") "and then with " selk.Parent.Seeker.Value = true "   but it returns a error: Workspace.GameStart:47: attempt to index local 'selk' (a nil value) mariko229 0 — 10y

Read line 2 of your script. Is that FindFirstChild? Perci1 4988 — 10y

no, but i tried it with FindFirstChild and it puts out an error: Workspace.GameStart:47: attempt to index local 'selk' (a nil value) mariko229 0 — 10y

Well then that means that there is no Humanoid object in workspace. Perci1 4988 — 10y

You sure it's a direct child of workspace and not just a descendant? Perci1 4988 — 10y

Found the solution myself:

Workspace.Startevent.Changed:connect(function()
    local selk = Workspace:FindFirstChild("Humanoid", true)
    print(selk)
    selk.Parent.Seeker.Value = true
    repeat
        wait()
    until sek == 1
    workspace.GameInProgress.Value = true
    t = 20  --game time
    repeat
        wait(1)
        t = t-1
        print(t)
        if gameend.Value then
            t = 0
        end
    until t == 0
    wait(0.1)
    t = 20
    gameend.Value = true
    wait(0.1)
    gameend.Value = false
end)

The Humanoid was inside a model so you have to use the second argument in FindFirstChild("Humanoid", true)

It will glitch if there's players in the game, unless you rename their humanoids somewhere or something. Perci1 4988 — 10y
