How would I make this simple script work?
I've been looking into in pairs, and I have this problem with this simple script. What I want it to do is, remove all the hats a player would have when he spawns. I thought using game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function() would help since I want it when the player joins but of course if the player dies I don't want them to have the hats on. Additionally, this script was working when "Hat" was set to "BasePart" before. I have no idea why the hats don't want to get removed even though the player's parts did.
This is in a local script in startpack.
--[[]]--
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
--Main
function RemoveBody()
for i, v in pairs(player:GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Hat") then
v:Destroy()
wait(.1)
end
end
end
RemoveBody()

The problem is likely that the Character hasn't loaded by the time this script has.
There's more problems with that, since the hats won't necessarily be there the moment the player is.
First, we need to get a good reference to the character.
One of the following two will work (I prefer the first for being so cute)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
locla character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
-- OR --
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat
wait()
until player.Character
local character = player.Character
Now we can try to remove hats:
function destroyHat(hat)
if hat:IsA("Hat") then
hat:Destroy()
end
end
function removeHats( model )
for _, child in pairs(model:GetChildren()) do
removeHat( child )
end
end
removeHats( character )
We should also probably check any new additions to the player after this point in case new hats are added:
character.ChildAdded:connect( destroyHat )
