humanoid.Died from local script?

Asked by

3 years ago

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait(1) until plr.Character
local chr = plr.Character

chr.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
    print("Character died")
    plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    print("Character respawned")
end)

This is the first code before editing

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait(1) until plr.Character
local chr = plr.Character

chr.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
    print("Character died")
    plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    print("Character respawned")

    chr = plr.Character
    chr:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
end)

This is the code after editing

Seems to be working right, but when player died again, function is not working in both codes. How do I detect when humanoid died from a local script properly so this function can work forever? I need this script to be located in the player scripts, not character scripts.

You should use CharacterAdded to see when the character is added again and get the updated player character:

game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)

char.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
--do your thing
end)
end)

Sorry for improper tabbing, im on my phone.

You might also want to call it from a remote event. MajenBej 5 — 3y

I dont think calling it from a remote event is not the best idea. Are you talking about starter character script or a server script? MrSuperKrut 167 — 3y

Btw this code is working how do i accept it? MrSuperKrut 167 — 3y
