Keep getting warnings while trying to set parent?
I have this script inside of a screen gui in the player, that's supposed to create a bunch of snowflakes while the value is true, which it does correctly, but once it starts cloning snowflakes the gui lags really bad and it shows this error Something unexpectedly tried to set the parent of SnowFlake to NULL while trying to set the parent of SnowFlake. Current parent is SnowFlakeGui. Can anybody show me what I'm doing wrong?
local snowflake = script.Parent.SnowFlake
local generatesnow = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.generatesnow
while generatesnow.Value == true do
wait(math.random(1, 100)/100)
snowflake:Clone().Parent = script.Parent
end

Can you write the tree of that script? ex: ScreenGui -> Frame -> Snowflake & Script mixgingengerina10 223 — 4y

You will need to state the clone's parent in another line of code, such as:
local copy = snowflake:Clone() copy.Parent = script.Parent
