Checking if a Player is dead.?
Hi, I'm trying to make a script so that if they buy a dev product they get a coil, but if they die, they get the coil again. No matter what I do I can't get it to award the coil when they die. I don't want to use a game pass though.
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local productID = 1006378151
local function processReceipt (receiptInfo)
local player = players:GetPlayerByUserId(receiptInfo.PlayerId)
if not player then
--notg
--reee
return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.NotProcessedYet
end
if player then
game.ServerStorage.cool:clone().Parent = player.Backpack ---Award it as soon as they buy it.
while true do ---A while true loop to check if they are dead.
end
end
return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.PurchaseGranted
end
MarketplaceService.ProcessReceipt = processReceipt
If you could help me out, please do.

if you want a player to keep gear after they die, you can put it inside their StarterGear so they respawn with it
game.ServerStorage.cool:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack game.ServerStorage.cool:Clone().Parent = player.StarterGear
keep in mind, you have to clone it into BOTH their Backpack and their StarterGear, or else they won't get it until they respawn

Instead of using a while loop, I would simply use an event which is made for cases such as this.
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local productID = 1006378151
local function processReceipt (receiptInfo)
local player = players:GetPlayerByUserId(receiptInfo.PlayerId)
if not player then
--notg
--reee
return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.NotProcessedYet
end
if player then
game.ServerStorage.cool:clone().Parent = player.Backpack ---Award it as soon as they buy it.
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
game.ServerStorage.cool:clone().Parent = player.Backpack -- Every time the player spawns, they receive the item.
end)
end
return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.PurchaseGranted
end
MarketplaceService.ProcessReceipt = processReceipt
Using humanoid.Died we can easily tell if a player has died, this is an event and can be use like this:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
-- // Humanoid has died, do what ever
end)
end)
end)
I'd use the CharacterAdded event.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect:(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
YourTool:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end)
end)
You can swap the while loop for this as this fires only when the event happens. This eliminates unnecessary looping which can sometimes cause performance issues.
