How do I pass name of part that killed player trought events?
I have event called "PlayerDiedTo" that is supposted to pass names of things that killed the player to local script so it can check if the thing that killed player was named "CorrectPart"
I tried this but I just started learning about events and dont know how this works
local
local event = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerDiedTo
event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(CorrectPart)
if CorrectPart then
print("Correct")
else
print("False")
end
end)
server
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
if Hit and Hit.Parent and Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")then
if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("NPC") then --ignore this it just detects if hit parent is not an npc
else
Hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0
local event = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayerDiedTo
local CorrectPart= script.Parent
event:FireAllClients(CorrectPart)
end
end
end)

There is no need to pass it through events, just do this
--Script inside the tool you are using to kill someone (a sword for example)
Tool = script.Parent
Handle = Tool.Handle
local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Tool.Parent) or Tool.Parent.Parent --1. checks if there is a character (so if they are equipped the tool), if no then 2. checks the tool parent which is the backpack, and the backpack is parented to the player
Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local Tagged = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
Tagged.Name = "creator"
Tagged.Value = Player
Tagged.Parent = hit.Parent.Humanoid
game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(Tagged, 2)
end)
--Script inside the character (place inside startercharacterscripts)
local Character = script.Parent
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
local creator = Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator)
if creator then
local plr = creator.Value
if plr and plr.leaderstats then
plr.leaderstats.Kills.Value +=1 --replace with whatever you want to change, may be cash or something
end
end
end)
