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.
game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 1
while true do
local speed = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed
if speed > 0 then
local Random = math.random(1,100)
if Random < 99 then
speed = speed + math.random(1,3)
else
speed = speed - speed
end
else
--This is where I want it to detect (I only want it to be able to detect here)
end
wait(1)
end

You can detect player touching like this:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
detected = {}
if character ~= nil then
for _, part in pairs(character.HumanoidRootPart:GetTouchingParts()) do
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent) ~= nil then
if (detected[game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)] == nil) and (part.Parent ~= character) then
detected.insert((game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent) = true), #detected)
print("Player touch detected: ", game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent))
end
end
end
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 — 1y

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 — 1y
