Hey everyone, So I'm making a script which, when a Player enters, will move a ClickDetector into their torso. Here is the script I have: function onPlayerEntered(NewPlayer) local CD = Instance.new("ClickDetector") local PlayerName = NewPlayer.Name CD.Parent = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("" ..PlayerName).Torso end game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onPlayerEntered) No output... I know there is the method :GetPlayerFromCharacter but is there a :GetCharacterFromPlayer

Change: CD.Parent = game.Workspace.PB.Torso to: CD.Parent = PB.Torso

function onPlayerEntered(NewPlayer) local CD = Instance.new("ClickDetector") local PB = NewPlayer.Character CD.Parent = PB.Torso end game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onPlayerEntered) No output still... I'm quite a good scripter but this is just weird. I don't really edit Characters much.

Okay I added the script and it works... I've also made it add a script to the Player's torso (an OnClick script) When I click the torso, no output but the Icon for a click detector doesn't show up. Do you have to have something in the player to be able to click the torso?
