How to make clickable characters?
Hey, I have been trying to make a clickDetector within a player model, but it's just not working for me. Any suggestions? Here is the code. (FYI it is stored under "StarterPlayerScripts")
local character = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character
local clickable = Instance.new("ClickDetector",character.UpperTorso) clickable.MaxActivationDistance = 12

The Upper and Lower Torso are underneath the HumanoidRootPart. Try changing the parent of the click detector to HumanoidRootPart.

no, it still doesn't work. Does it have to do with the fact that it is a local script under StartPlayerScripts? PolakBaller123 0 — 3y

I've never seen anybody parent an instance like how you did. Instead of doing Instance.new("ClickDetector",character.HRP), try doing clickable.Parent = HRP LeedleLeeRocket 1257 — 3y

do I have to declare HRP as a variable? When I created the parent, HumanoidRootPart was underlined in red. here's the updated code for your convenience. PolakBaller123 0 — 3y

local Players = game:GetService("Players") local Player = Players.LocalPlayer local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait() local clickable = Instance.new("ClickDetector") clickable.Parent = HumanoidRootPart PolakBaller123 0 — 3y

Yes, HRP is a child of Character so do local HRP = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart") LeedleLeeRocket 1257 — 3y

Hm, strange. It's still not working. Is it maybe because it is a local script under startplayerscripts? It isn't even adding the clickdetector when I check the HumanoidRootPart part of the explorer page while in the game. PolakBaller123 0 — 3y

You can put the click detector under the model, rather than a specific part in the character. This will allow you to click any part of the character.
