ProfileStore: Profile is nil

[obsidian garnet]

I run into this issue every time I script and I forgot how i fixed it last time.

When defining the profile I print it and its nil. But my player object is valid before calling the function. It doesnt make sense.

you know its bad when not even chatgpt, grok, and snapchat ai cant debug it

yo guys

heads up

you probably should check if your using : or . for calling a function from a module script

3rd time ive spent 30+ minutes on fixing the same error

history repeats itself

This is known to those who study OOP before using third party tools that employ it

I recommend you learn how OOP is emulated in Luau to better understand your bug

It will help you avoid making the mistake again

show snippet of code

profilestore not very complicated

[warm sierra]

He solved the problem. He failed to follow the convention of using : to execute methods on objects. This corrupted self and caused ProfileStore to lose itself
