local Part = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Part")
Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local HP = hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health
HP = HP - 10
print(HP)
wait(1)
end
end)
The output prints 90 alot of times and only stucks 90. Does anybody know whats wrong?
local Part = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("Part")
Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(10)
wait(1)
end
end)
Humanoids have a :TakeDamage() function which subtracts health!
An actual answer to your question, when you defined the HP variable you set it to Humanoid.Health, which is 100 (i assume). HP is set to 100 and when the actual health value changes the variable will not change because it has already computed the value. Instead of the line
HP = HP - 10
use
Humanoid.Health = Humanoid.Health - 10
You may be thinking that variables working that way is stupid, but it's useful. Heres an example
hpSnapshot = Humanoid.Health
wait(10)
print("Your health was " .. hpSnapshot .. " ten seconds ago. Now it's " .. Humanoid.Health)
Not the best example but you can see what I mean here.
