How can I fix this Death script?

Asked 207 views1 answers

This localscript, located in the player itself, is supposed to activate when the player dies (by falling off the map usually)

local plr = script.Parent

local char = plr.Character
local hum = char.Humanoid
local stats = plr.leaderstats
local respawns = stats.Respawns

local function onDeath()
if hum.Health <= 0 then
if respawns.Value > 0 then
respawns.Value = respawns.Value - 1
for i,v in pairs(plr:GetChildren()) do if v:IsA("Sound") then repeat wait(0) v:Stop() until v:Stop() or not v.IsPlaying end end
plr.Backpack.Death:Play()
end
end
end

hum.Changed:connect(onDeath)

Doesn't seem to work at all however, and I'm not finding any errors in the output. Any help would be appreciated.

Put this in a script in the StarterGui (Regular or Local)

local Player=script.Parent.Parent
repeat wait() until Player.Character
local Character=Player.Character
local Humanoid=Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Stats=Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local Respawns=Stats:WaitForChild("Respawns")

function Search(Obj)
	for i,v in pairs(Obj:GetChildren()) do
		if v.ClassName=="Sound" then
			v:Stop()
		end
		Search(v)
	end
end

function Death()
	if Humanoid.Health<=0 then
		if Respawns.Value>0 then
			Respawns.Value=Respawns.Value-1
			Search(Player)
			wait(.2)
			Player.Backpack.Death:Play()
		end
	end
end
Humanoid.Changed:connect(Death)
