Basically what the title says i can't figure out how to do this. How would i make the part hurt others but not hurt me when i touch it, i tried this script but it doesn't work.


wait(5)
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()
safe = game.Workspace.Player -- i used safe as the vairable to distingush between who gets hurt and who doesn't

print("GO")

detectionPad                = Instance.new("Part",player.Character)
detectionPad.Anchored       = true
detectionPad.CanCollide     = false
detectionPad.BrickColor     = BrickColor.new("Really blue")
detectionPad.Transparency   = .4
detectionPad.FormFactor     = Enum.FormFactor.Custom
detectionPad.Size           = Vector3.new(10, 0.5, 10)
detectionPad.CFrame         = detectionPad.CFrame*CFrame.Angles(1,0,0)
mesh                        = Instance.new("CylinderMesh",detectionPad)



while true do
    wait()
    detectionPad.CFrame     = player.Character.Torso.CFrame
    detectionPad.CFrame     = detectionPad.CFrame *CFrame.new(0,-3.1,0)
    if(player.Character.Torso.Position - detectionPad.Position).magnitude <= 5 then
        if not safe then
            print("Death") --not going adding the killing part yet
        end
    end

end

I'm not sure if you can do that with just one script, but if you are willing to have two scripts then do this.

permission = {"Player"}

function checkOkToLetIn(name) 
    for i = 1,#permission do 
        if (string.upper(name) == string.upper(permission[i])) then return true end 
    end 
    return false 
end 

local Door = script.Parent

function onTouched(hit) 
    local human = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") 
    if (human ~= nil ) then 
        if (checkOkToLetIn(human.Parent.Name)) then 
            wait(4)
        else human.Health= 0
        end 
    end 
end 

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

Put this script as a child of your script and disable this script, modify your script to copy this script then past it into the brick and enable it (enabling is a behavior property). Here is an example of how to clone something:

local part = Instance.new("Part")
part.Parent = game.Workspace
local clone = part:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Workspace
