Help on this tool script please? [ UNANSWERED PLEASE HELP ]

Asked by 10 years ago

For moderators: That post had absolutely no answers. Those were comments. The comment was not a answer, and I tried the suggestion and nothing happened. This is my last chance of hope getting this to work. I really need this for my game badly.

UPDATE: I have an error that states: Touched is not a member of tool.

This script is inside a tool, meant to kill Zombies (Hostile NPCs with a Humanoid named Zombie), and when the tool is fired the ball(bullet) kills the Zombie. It works on test mode in ROBLOX Studio, but not when a physically play the game. Script looks very long, but all I worry about are lines 12-34

ball = script.Parent
damage = math.random(30,60)
local hitt = false

HitSound = Instance.new("Sound")
HitSound.Name = "HitSound"
HitSound.SoundId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=11945266"
HitSound.Pitch = .8
HitSound.Volume = 1
HitSound.Parent = ball

function onTouched(hit)
    if hit.Parent:findFirstChild("ForceField") ~= nil then return end
    if hit.CanCollide == false and hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Zombie") == nil then return end
    if hit.Parent.className == "Hat" and hitt == false then
        hitt = true
        hit:BreakJoints()
        hit.Velocity = ball.Velocity
        hit.Parent.Parent = game.Workspace
    end

    if hit:findFirstChild("Metal") ~= nil and hitt == false then
        hitt = true
        for i = 1,math.random(1,3) do
            local j = Instance.new("Part")
            j.formFactor = "Plate"
            j.Size = Vector3.new(1,.4,1)
            j.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright yellow")
            j.CanCollide = false

            j.CFrame = script.Parent.CFrame
            j.Parent = game.Workspace
        end
    end

    local humanoid = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Zombie")

    if humanoid ~= nil and hitt == false then
        hitt = true

        else
            humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health - damage
        end
        wait(.2)
        untagHumanoid(humanoid)
    end
    if hitt == true then
        HitSound:play()
        ball.Parent = nil
    end
end

function tagHumanoid(humanoid)
    local tag = ball:findFirstChild("creator")
    if tag ~= nil then
        local new_tag = tag:clone()
        new_tag.Parent = humanoid
    end
end


function untagHumanoid(humanoid)
    if humanoid ~= nil then
        local tag = humanoid:findFirstChild("creator")
        if tag ~= nil then
            tag.Parent = nil
        end
    end
end

connection = ball.Touched:connect(onTouched)

while true do
wait(.01)
if damage < 0 then
break
else
damage = damage - .2
end

This is the LAST post of the same question I'll ever do. I'm not begging, I'm asking for a serious amount of help. This site is meant for help but I'm not getting any. I really need help here!

`hitt` didn't really need to be there, and you were missing a check to make sure `hit.Parent` wasn't nil. Here's a cleaned up version, http://hastebin.com/izefoquloj.lua though I didn't see anything that looked like a bug so if there is one it's probably still there. BlueTaslem 18071 — 10y

You should use LocalScripts when it's a descendant of Player. Perci1 4988 — 10y
