How to count how many times an individual NPC had been been killed?

Asked by 2 years ago

I want to know how will I be able to count the amount of times an individual NPC has been killed.

For example let’s say I have two npcs in my game. Lex and Aaron. If you kill them, the kill counts go up towards them.

Would love to know how. Thanks

So, I am unsure if this piece will work on a NPC, but Ik it works on a player. Humanoids have a ability to call a function when a user is dead. This is done through Humanoid.Died:Connect(). [Go here for more info on Humanoid.Died!]

Because of this, we can insert a int value inside the NPC and name it 'Deaths.'. Next, put a script inside the NPC and this will be the code you put in:

local Humanoid = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local Deaths = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Deaths")
Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
    Deaths.Value = Deaths.Value + 1
    print("Deaths.Value")
end)

First, it will find both the humanoid and the deaths value. It will then wait untill the NPC is dead, and then add 1 to the deaths value. It will then print the value so you know how many times it has been killed.

If this does not work, you can try use something like:

local Humanoid = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local Deaths = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Deaths")
while wait(1) do
    if Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
        Deaths.Value = Deaths.Value + 1
        print("Deaths.Value")
    end
end

This is simply just the same, just it keeps checking every 1 second for if the health goes to 0, or somehow below.

Personally, I believe the first will be the most helpful, as it is not constantly running. But if that does not work, try the second one!

that works but when it respawns it resets the value of the deaths, any idea how I can save it? thanks Aliamasion 4 — 2y

Ah, create a folder in serverstorage, then have values in there for each npc. Jay123abc2 241 — 2y
