#

and see what happens

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:13 PM

#

im going to say yes

#

but if so

#

WHY IS IT BLUE

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:13 PM

#

👀

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:13 PM

#

attempted to call a nil value

#

and it listed all the info on "PynMan"s body parts

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:14 PM

#

ss

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:14 PM

#

ok

#

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:15 PM

#

local Remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("SoundPlayEvent")

Remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(SoundFire)

function SoundFire()
    if FireClient fires SoundPlayEvent play BoingSound
end

#

this code is from yesterday

#

you made the same mistake here

#

what is the mistake

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

im not sure

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

THINK MEN

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

function Jump(hit,cloud)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- check if humanoid variable is humanoid instance
        local humanoid = hit.Parent.Humanoid -- can already use .humanoid because it exists!
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
        Remote:FireClient(player,"Sound",Sound)
        humanoid.JumpHeight = cloud:GetAttribute("JumpHeight") -- set jumpheight to the attribute value
        humanoid.Jump = true
        task.wait(.5)
        humanoid.JumpHeight = 7.2
        squish(cloud)
    end
end

#

the issue

#

is here

#

with how i wrote squish(cloud)

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

yes

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

noble patrol ```lua local Remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("SoundPl...

, but it's related to this

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:16 PM

#

cloud can't leave the function?

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:17 PM

#

wym can't leave the functiojn

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:17 PM

#

The function is contained

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:17 PM

#

it can leave the function

#

freely

#

as long as you send it onwards

#

which you're doing

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:17 PM

#

noble patrol ```lua local Remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("SoundPl...

not enough ends?

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:18 PM

#

that's not the problem there

#

@warped meadow code is executed from top to bottom

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:18 PM

#

noble patrol ```lua local Remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("SoundPl...

the connect event happens before its made?

#

im confused

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:19 PM

#

Remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(SoundFire)

function SoundFire()
    
end

#

where is the mistake

#

it's a logical mistake

#

not a mistake in code

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

Does it have to do with the placement top to bottom

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

yes

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

remote should be under

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

yes

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

the connect

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

you're trying to call a function

#

which hasnt been created

#

yet

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:20 PM

#

im trying to call squish

#

but squish doesn't yet exist

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

yes

#

so

#

how do you fix the problem

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

squish goes first

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

yes

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

shouldnt it only happen if you use local function

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

local Remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("SoundPlayEvent")
local Sound = game.ReplicatedStorage.Sounds.BoingSound
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local function squish(squishable:  Instance)
    local TweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, Enum.EasingDirection.In,0, true, 0)
    local goal = {Instance.Size*2}
    TweenService:Create(squishable,TweenInfo,goal):Play()
end


function Jump(hit,cloud)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- check if humanoid variable is humanoid instance
        local humanoid = hit.Parent.Humanoid -- can already use .humanoid because it exists!
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(humanoid.Parent)
        Remote:FireClient(player,"Sound",Sound)
        humanoid.JumpHeight = cloud:GetAttribute("JumpHeight") -- set jumpheight to the attribute value
        humanoid.Jump = true
        task.wait(.5)
        humanoid.JumpHeight = 7.2
        squish(cloud)
    end
end


local cloudtable = {} -- create a table for the clouds

for _,instance in game.Workspace:GetDescendants() do -- for each descendant in workspace
    if instance:GetAttribute("JumpHeight") then -- check if they have an attribute called JumpHeight
        table.insert(cloudtable,instance) -- insert the instance into the table if they do
    end
end

for _,cloud in cloudtable do -- go through each cloud in cloudtable
    cloud.Touched:Connect(function(hit) -- start a function when a cloud is .Touched
        Jump(hit,cloud) -- 
    end)
end


local function squish(squishable:  Instance)
    local TweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, Enum.EasingDirection.In,0, true, 0)
    local goal = {Instance.Size*2}
    TweenService:Create(squishable,TweenInfo,goal):Play()
    end

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

why two squish men

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:21 PM

#

wait two squish

#

ooop

#

ok second squish gone

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

noble patrol why two squish men

why cant he just use it as a function instead of a local function

#

so he can access it everywhere on thes cript

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

bad practice

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

not really

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

unnecessary data storing

#

unless you're using it EVERYwhere

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

when he learns modules its not gonna matter

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

and if you are

#

use module scripts

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

it takes up memory for no reason

#

so

#

what is line 16

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:22 PM

#

local goal = {Instance.Size*2}

#

so we need to know the instance size before we run that command?

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:23 PM

#

local function squish(squishable:  Instance)
    print(squishable)
    local TweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, Enum.EasingDirection.In,0, true, 0)
    local goal = {Instance.Size*2}
    TweenService:Create(squishable,TweenInfo,goal):Play()
end

#

replace it with this

#

and see what it prints

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:25 PM

#

#

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:25 PM

#

ok we are going to do a fun thing

#

called enabling output

#

go into roblox studio

#

click the View tab

#

and click on Output

#

and re do the whole process

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:25 PM

#

ok

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:25 PM

#

and then ss the output window

#

instead of the console

#

its just insanely flooded

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:26 PM

#

#

its getting a nil value

#

i gotta start getting ready in about 10 mins

#

for work

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

ah

#

I know why

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

instance.size

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

Instance.size

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

instead of squishable.size

#

fix that before u go to work

#

please

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

no

#

squishable

#

instead of instance

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

squishable.size?

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

squishable.Size

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:27 PM

#

noble patrol instead of instance

thats what im saying

#

he used instance.size instead of squishable.size

#

and instance doesnt exist

#

only squishable was passed with the type of instance

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:28 PM

#

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:28 PM

#

cannot cast dictionary

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:28 PM

#

squishable has a different error this time

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:28 PM

#

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:29 PM

#

fleet nacelle check the line it esnt you to

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:29 PM

#

local goal = {}
goal.Size = squishable.Size *2

#

my bad

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:29 PM

#

noble patrol ```lua local goal = {} goal.Size = squishable.Size *2 ```

just do

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:29 PM

#

or ```lua
local goal = {Size = squishable.Size*2}

#

either one

#

works

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:30 PM

#

local goal = {
  ['Size'] = squishable.Size*2,
}```

noble patrol Jan 2, 2024, 7:30 PM

#

disturbing

#

formatting

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:30 PM

#

totally not mental hospital code

warped meadow Jan 2, 2024, 7:30 PM

#

local goal = {Size = squishable.Size*2}

fleet nacelle Jan 2, 2024, 7:31 PM

#
