How could I check is a part being touched?
I would like to make a button that would turn red when clicked when the detector part is being touched and otherwise turn green. I had tried the code below and it turnouts only showing red if a part is starting to touch but not touching. (e.g. if you walk into the part then click the button, it still shows green. If you drive a car slowly into the detector, since parts at the rear of the car is entering the block, it would turn red on click.)
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
print("Button")
local Parts = script.Parent.Parent.Detect:GetTouchingParts()
if #Parts == 0 then
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")
else
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
end
end)

Probably a another part like the ground is touching the 'Detect' part, you should change 0 to 1 or whatever, tested and worked here GIF
Here's my code
local function GetTouchingParts(part)
local connection = part.Touched:Connect(function() end)
local results = part:GetTouchingParts()
connection:Disconnect()
return results
end
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function()
local Parts = GetTouchingParts(script.Parent.Parent.Detect)
if #Parts == 1 then
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Lime green")
else
script.Parent.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
end
end)
