Why is my LocalScript showing for all players when run?
I am coding an obby game, but I encountered an issue. My shrinking platform is shrinking for all players when touched which is an issue when in a large server. I'm confused as all of the code is inside of a LocalScript inside of the StarterPlayerScripts. How could I change my code or use a different method to get the effect to only show up on the client side?
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
for _, ShrinkingPlatform in pairs(CollectionService:GetTagged("ShrinkingPlatform")) do
local debounce = true
local OriginalSize = ShrinkingPlatform.Size
local ShrinkTime = ShrinkingPlatform.ShrinkTime.Value
local RespawnTime = ShrinkingPlatform.RespawnTime.Value
ShrinkingPlatform.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if debounce ~= false and hit.Anchored ~= true then
debounce = false
local TweeningInfo = TweenInfo.new(ShrinkTime, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0, false, 0)
TweenService:Create(ShrinkingPlatform, TweeningInfo, {Size = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)}):Play()
wait(RespawnTime + ShrinkTime)
ShrinkingPlatform.Size = OriginalSize
debounce = true
end
end)
end
Feel free to ask any questions!

Since you are detecting when the part is hit, each client script for each client is looking to see when its touched and when touched by literally anyone it will trigger it, all you need to do is add a check of if its the local player that hit it.
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local locplayer = game.Players.LocalPlayer
for _, ShrinkingPlatform in pairs(CollectionService:GetTagged("ShrinkingPlatform")) do
local debounce = true
local OriginalSize = ShrinkingPlatform.Size
local ShrinkTime = ShrinkingPlatform.ShrinkTime.Value
local RespawnTime = ShrinkingPlatform.RespawnTime.Value
ShrinkingPlatform.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local partsofplayer = hit:FindFirstAncestor(locplayer.Name)
if partsofplayer then
if debounce ~= false and hit.Anchored ~= true then
debounce = false
local TweeningInfo = TweenInfo.new(ShrinkTime, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0, false, 0)
TweenService:Create(ShrinkingPlatform, TweeningInfo, {Size = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)}):Play()
wait(RespawnTime + ShrinkTime)
ShrinkingPlatform.Size = OriginalSize
debounce = true
end
end
end)
end
