Healing script resets the health added to the player?
Right now, I have created a tool that, when activated, gives the player 10 health. However, a second after giving the player the health, it takes it away. Does anyone know why this is the case? It is a localscript placed inside a tool named "Food"
local tool = script.Parent
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character
local healAmount = 10
function onActivated ()
print("Hello")
local currentHealth = char.Humanoid.Health
local newHealth = currentHealth + healAmount
char.Humanoid.Health = newHealth
end
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(onActivated)

Due to filtering enabled, localscripts can't and won't interact with the game (i.e. other players won't be able to see the modifications your localscript made) RAFA1608 543 — 3y

I'd suggest for you to do the script in a serverscript instead. RAFA1608 543 — 3y

This is what I suspected, but when I copy paste the code into a serverscript, I get this error. MikelTheWolf 2 — 3y

You can't use LocalPlayer inside of a server script. Instead, try checking for the tool's parent inside of the function to get the character. sngnn 274 — 3y

The localscript will only heal the player on their screen, but for the others the player is not healed to them GameBuilderLol 58 — 3y

Try this:
local tool = script.Parent
local healAmount = 10
function onActivated (player)
print("Hello")
local char = player.Character
local currentHealth = char.Humanoid.Health
local newHealth = currentHealth + healAmount
char.Humanoid.Health = newHealth
end
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(onActivated)
Put this on a server script
