how do detect when a player is touched by another player?
I am just wondering how I could detect that. I am also wondering if that is possible inside of a local script in StarterPlayer > StarterCharacterScripts. I don't know if you want the code so I will just show it and note where I want it to be able to detect.
01 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 1 |
02 |
03 |
04 | while true do |
05 | local speed = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed |
06 | if speed > 0 then |
07 | local Random = math.random(1,100) |
08 | if Random < 99 then |
09 | speed = speed + math.random(1,3) |
10 | else |
11 | speed = speed - speed |
12 | end |
13 | else |
14 | --This is where I want it to detect (I only want it to be able to detect here) |
15 | end |
16 | wait(1) |
17 | end |

You can detect player touching like this:
01 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
02 | local character = player.Character |
03 | detected = {} |
04 | if character ~= nil then |
05 | for _, part in pairs(character.HumanoidRootPart:GetTouchingParts()) do |
06 | if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent) ~= nil then |
07 | if (detected[game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)] == nil) and (part.Parent ~= character) then |
08 | detected.insert((game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent) = true), #detected) |
09 | print("Player touch detected: ", game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)) |
10 | end |
11 | end |
12 | end |
13 | end |
This code generates the table (detected), which contains a list of all players who are currently touching the player.

When I tried this the player detects itself. How do I stop that? Puppy_lovertheawsome 84 — 2y

edited the script to fix this. all that needed to happen is check if the part that has touched the player is in the player or not. sergeant_ranger 184 — 2y
