attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value

What causes it

Your code tried to do math (+, -, *, /) with a value that's nil. Usually a Config value, a table field, or a returned value that doesn't exist. The parentheses name what's nil.

How to fix it

Find the nil value named in the error and ensure it has a number before the math runs.

1. Read the variable/field in parentheses — that's what's nil.
2. If it's a Config value, confirm it's defined and the config loads before this code.
3. If it's a returned value, check the function actually returned a number.
4. Add a default: local n = value or 0 before the arithmetic.
