How can i reference Humanoid?

Asked Jan 14, 2021352 views1 answers

So i'm trying to reference the Humanoid so I can damage the player upon touching something, but it doesn't work. Here is how I tried to reference the Humanoid

local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

I also tried local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("Humanoid") but didnt work

✓ Accepted answer

Humanoid is a child of Character. So you will need to add another hierarchy in order to get the humanoid. Also I recommend putting CharacterAdded in case the character isn't there.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
