#

I can provide any other info from the scripts n stuff you need

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:12 AM

#

How would anyone figure that out if you never share the code?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:13 AM

#

Where

#

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:13 AM

#

i mean all cases of using that attribute returns nil, but heres the code for this script
`
local bindableEvent = game.ServerScriptService:WaitForChild("Stun")

local function onMyEventFired(player,length)
-- Your code to run when the event is triggered
local BaseSpeed = player.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed
local BaseJump = player.Character.Humanoid.JumpPower
local StunCounter = player:getAttribute("StunCounter")
print(player.Name)
player:setAttribute("Stunned", true)

print(player:getAttribute("StunCounter"))
print(player:getAttribute("Stunned"))
player.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
player.Character.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0

end

bindableEvent.Event:Connect(onMyEventFired)
`

not finished

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:14 AM

#

So what problem

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:14 AM

#

A simple solution for you is to bind a signal to that attribute whenever it chages

#

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:15 AM

#

My plan was to originally increment it, but i cant do that as it can find the attribute i believe

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:15 AM

#

Theirs ** no built-in method called getAttribute or setAttribute **

#

But until 2022

#

they added it

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:15 AM

#

wdym?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:15 AM

#

I don’t know

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:15 AM

#

my other uses of it works properly

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:16 AM

#

Yeah

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:16 AM

#

and its in documentation

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:16 AM

#

@crimson vector shut up for a moment 😭

#

You're not even setting attribute anywhere in the code you shared @viral lotus

#

It's ``` not '''

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:17 AM

#

Helps*

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

pseudo zinc You're not even setting attribute anywhere in the code you shared <@406561495699...

is it not default set from the properties area?

studio ** You are now Level 2! ** studio

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

@viral lotus where do you set the attribute?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

To 5

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

like from here

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

Or 3

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

And what is nil?

#

Stunned or stuncounter

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:18 AM

#

StunCounter

#

Stunned works properly

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:19 AM

#

Great work Sherlock

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:19 AM

#

how did you create that value ( Just want to know )

#

,,,playerDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId .. "_Stunned", true)
playerDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId .. "_StunCounter", 0),,,

So pro embed failed

#

Oh yay im yellow

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:20 AM

#

crimson vector how did you create that value ( Just want to know )

?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:20 AM

#

viral lotus ?

Add dis playerDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId .. "_Stunned", true)
playerDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId .. "_StunCounter", 0)

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:20 AM

#

Why datastore??

#

How is datastore related??

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:20 AM

#

it took me 50 seconds to make it dont ask any questions

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:21 AM

#

@viral lotus under what is that attribute created in the explorer??

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:21 AM

#

If you insists datastore allows an player to save things

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:22 AM

#

How is that related to the nil attribute?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:22 AM

#

Trust me it works for setting prefix

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:22 AM

#

pseudo zinc <@406561495699423234> under what is that attribute created in the explorer??

StarterCharacter, "Attributes" under the properties explorer if you meant that

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:22 AM

#

Yeah of course it's not going to work

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:22 AM

#

player.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
player.Character.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:23 AM

#

@viral lotus ignore ActiveVenue he's got a brain rot

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:23 AM

#

I agree

#

Now I will help other people

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:25 AM

#

You need to create these attributes when the player joins
Example:

function onPlayerAdded(Player)
Player:SetAttribute("abc") = true
end
Players.PlayerAdded:connect(OnPlayerAdded)

#

Sorry for any spelling issues it's my phone keyboard

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:25 AM

#

would that be in this script (serverSide) or a StartingPlayerScript

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:26 AM

#

In a script server side

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:26 AM

#

alright

#

let me test it

rough marsh Jun 3, 2024, 10:26 AM

#

correction:

Player:SetAttribute("abc", true)

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:28 AM

#

Yeah thank you just wanted to edit the message

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function onPlayerAdded(player)

end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

wait minor spelling misatke

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

On is uppercased

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

still got the error after fix

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

viral lotus still got the error after fix

Add print function

#



humanoid:SetAttribute("StunCounter", 0)


local StunCounter = 0 humanoid:GetAttribute("MyCustomAttribute")
print(StunCounter) ```

rough marsh Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

it is case sensitive

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:29 AM

#

And add to the top

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:30 AM

#

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

#

But dis better game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:31 AM

#

crimson vector ``` local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("H...

It's a server script issue and unrelated to the humanoid.

rough marsh Jun 3, 2024, 10:31 AM

#

long and hard to read

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

crimson vector But dis better game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

They're the exact same thing

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

Wait so you want to make a client side?

It looks better

rough marsh Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

crimson vector It looks better

no it aint

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

crimson vector Wait so you want to make a client side?

No he doesn't need it to be a client side

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

Color is an opinion!

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

rough marsh no it aint

It's a matter of preference

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

i think its working?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:33 AM

#

viral lotus i think its working?

Why add the?

#

Add the print

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:33 AM

#

okay yeah it is

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:33 AM

#

It should be, check in the workspace if it's added to the player

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:33 AM

#

do you know why Stunned work but not StunCounter?

#

prior to this*

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:34 AM

#

I suggest over complicating it

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:34 AM

#

Oh wait

#

Okay hold on while I recode the whole thing

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:34 AM

#

Do you mean recode?

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:34 AM

#

I completely unnoticed you're using an event

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

Replicatedstorage eventfunction or event

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

crimson vector Do you mean recode?

re-code

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

pseudo zinc re-code

Did you mean “re-code”

rough marsh Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

rewrite*

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

does ++ not exist in lua or something

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

viral lotus okay yeah it is

Can you please send the whole code in chat?

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

viral lotus does ++ not exist in lua or something

In Lua it's +=

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

local bindableEvent = game.ServerScriptService:WaitForChild("Stun")

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function onPlayerAdded(player)
    player:SetAttribute("StunCounter", 0)
end

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

pseudo zinc In Lua it's +=

No its +++++++++

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

Use this next time

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:36 AM

#

player:getAttribute and player:setAttribute should be player:GetAttribute and player:SetAttribute, as Lua is case-sensitive.

#

Or attibute lua

You need to ensure that player.Character and player.Character.Humanoid

#

Theirs clearly an Humanoid misspelling

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 10:40 AM

#

local bindableEvent = game.ServerScriptService:WaitForChild("Stun")


local function onMyEventFired(Player, Length)
    
    local Character = Player.Character
    if not Character then return end
    local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if not Humanoid then return end

    local BaseSpeed = Humanoid.WalkSpeed
    local BaseJump = Humanoid.JumpPower
    local StunCounter = Player:getAttribute("StunCounter")

    Player:setAttribute("Stunned", true)
    Player:SetAttribute("StunCounter", 0)

    print(Player:getAttribute("StunCounter"))
    print(player:getAttribute("Stunned"))

    Player.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
    Player.Character.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0

end

bindableEvent.Event:Connect(onMyEventFired)

#

This should work as intended

#

Just saying it's incredibly painful to do this through an app.

viral lotus Jun 3, 2024, 10:43 AM

#

Minor Capitalization mistake

#

but yeah that works and is much cleaner than mines

#

tysm

crimson vector Jun 3, 2024, 10:45 AM

#

Yes

#

Thank me

pseudo zinc Jun 3, 2024, 11:47 AM

#

No problem

#

I forgot to optimize some stuff because I rushed.
Here are the full changes:

#

local ServerScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

local BindableEvent = ServerScriptService:WaitForChild("Stun")

local function Stun(Player, Length)

    local Character = Player.Character
    if not Character then return end
    local Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if not Humanoid then return end

    local BaseSpeed = Humanoid.WalkSpeed
    local BaseJump = Humanoid.JumpPower

    Player:setAttribute("Stunned", true)
    Player:SetAttribute("StunCounter", 0)

    Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
    Humanoid.JumpPower = 0

end

BindableEvent.Event:Connect(Stun)
