I created a script that sets the players camera to a part on spawn. It's very simple, I dont know why its not working. the script is a localscript in starter player scripts, and there is nothing in output. Please help

#

Heres the script:

local part = game.Workspace.MenuCamera
local players = game:GetService("Players")

local function setCamera(player)
    local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
    camera.CameraSubject = part
end

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(setCamera)

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
camera.CameraSubject = part

what about the playeradded thing

The issue here is that when you already joined, the players.PlayerAdded:Connect(setCamera) won't start for you, instead for another player and I dont think you can move the camera for another player like that... actually... maybe

subtle solar Heres the script: ```lua local part = game.Workspace.MenuCamera local players = ...

i think you should use camera.Cframe instead of Subject since you are trieng to change the cameras Cframe.
for example:
camera.Cframe = part.Cframe

subtle solar Heres the script: ```lua local part = game.Workspace.MenuCamera local players = ...

in this code you are saying that camera.CameraSubject = part
like you say local something = something
you shouldn't do that

#

try setting the Cframe and tell me if it doesnt work

alr i just tested for you in my studio and i found and simpeler way. you can just say:

local part = game.Workspace.MenuCamera
local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera

camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
camera.CameraSubject = part

#

it should work
