Light object not showing up via local script

[rough grail]

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer

player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
    task.wait(1)

    local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")

    local light = Instance.new("PointLight")
    light.Name = "AttachedLight"
    light.Range = 50
    light.Brightness = 30
    light.Color = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
    light.Parent = head
end)

when i play test, the light doesent show

Where you put local script?

StarterGui?

@rough grail what do you think will happen to this script wehn the character loads before the local script?

[rough grail]

I already accounted for that and added task.wait

[cyan oyster]

Inside the function?

[rough grail]

Yes? Or does task.wait doesn't work in functions?

[cloud hinge]

`local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded()

task.wait(1)

local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")

local light = Instance.new("PointLight")
light.Name = "AttachedLight"
light.Range = 50
light.Brightness = 30
light.Color = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
light.Parent = head`

Now this work

Because the character that you are passing in might not have loaded so even when I waits it still doesn’t work

[rough grail]

Oh, just removing the function makes sensei guess, since local script runs as soon as player joins

[visual patio]

Yk

[rough grail]

Thank you
