I'm trying to make a winner announcement for my racing project any help?
Okay, so I've made a very short but long part that a player's car goes over it they get an announcement saying they've won. Unfortunately this does not work for some reason.
workspace.win.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
local team = game:GetService("Teams")
if player then
script.Parent.Winner.Text = "Winner is: ".. player.Name
print("hit")
end
end)

To make it detect it if a car hit the winner's part, we'll have to use the GetTouchingParts method. Please note that this does not count objects that have their CanCollide property set to false.
Anyways, let's begin. First, we'll have to detect the touching parts, to do this, let's use GetTouchingParts.
local results = workspace.win:GetTouchingParts() -- gets the touching parts print(results) -- results is the touching part(s)
Once we do that, we'll have to detect if there is a Vehicle Seat inside of one of the Touching Parts. To do this, we can use i, v in pairs and GetDescendants and use FindFirstChildWhichIsA to find if it exist.
Code:
for i, v in pairs(results:GetDescentants()) do -- all the parts inside of all the touching parts
local Seat
v:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("VehicleSeat") -- detects if a part inside all the touching parts is a Vehicle Seat
if Seat then
end
end
Once we do that, we'll have to detect who is inside of the seat. To do this, we can use: Seat.Occupant.Parent, which is the character and GetPlayerFromCharacter. (Also, we'll need to detect if they are a player and the change the Winner Text.
Code:
if Seat.Occupant ~= "" then -- if there is an occupant then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Seat.Occupant.Parent)
if player then
script.Parent.Winner.Text = "Winner is: " .. player.Name
end
end
Outstanding job! Now, I'll combine the scripts for you.
local results = workspace.win:GetTouchingParts() -- gets the touching parts
print(results) -- results is the touching part(s)
for i, v in pairs(results:GetDescentants()) do -- all the parts inside of all the touching parts
local Seat
v:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("VehicleSeat") -- detects if a part inside all the touching parts is a Vehicle Seat
if Seat then
if Seat.Occupant ~= "" then -- if there is an occupant then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Seat.Occupant.Parent)
if player then
script.Parent.Winner.Text = "Winner is: " .. player.Name
end
end
end
end
Please Accept if it works.
