Why am I still dying even when I have a ForceField and not dying when I don't?
This script is inside a part. And when you touch without a ForceField you lose 100 health. (There is a shop where you can buy more health. That's why you lose 100 health instead of just setting health to 0) And if you touch it with a ForceField, you're supposed to not lose any health and have a 25% chance of getting 100 points.
debounce = false
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if not hit then
return true
elseif not hit.Parent then
return true
end
local h = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
local ff = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField1"),hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField2"),hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField3"),hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField4")
local nff1 = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField1",false)
local nff2 = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField2",false)
local nff3 = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField3",false)
local nff4 = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("ForceField4",false)
local p = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Grass"),hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Rock")
if h then
if ff then
print (hit.Parent)--Player
local points = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent):WaitForChild("Points")
if hit.Parent.RocksLeft.Value ~= 0 then
hit.Parent:WaitForChild("RocksLeft").Value = hit.Parent.RocksLeft.Value - 1
else
ff:Destroy()
end
local var1 = 1
local var2 = math.random(1,4)
if var2 == var1 then
points.Value = points.Value + 100
end
script.Parent:Destroy()
elseif nff1 or nff2 or nff3 or nff4 then
if debounce == false then
debounce = true
h.Health = h.Health - 100
print 'rip'
script.Parent:Destroy()
end
wait(.5)
debounce = false
end
elseif p then
local var = math.random(1,3)
if var == 1 then
script.Parent:Destroy()
end
end
end)
The problem is that when you touch it with a ForceField you loose 100 health, and when you touch it without a ForceField you don't lose any health.

First thing I see is that you are checking if a tuple is true in your if statement.
Second I believe that you are using the second argument in the FindFirstChild method wrong. The second argument specifies whether to search recursively or not.(It defaults to false)
I created a function to make sure that we find all possible forcefields.
local debounce = false
function FindFF(Char)
local T = {}
for _,n in pairs(Char:GetChildren()) do
if n:IsA("ForceField") then
table.insert(T,n)
end
end
return T
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
local char = hit.Parent
local h = char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local ff = FindFF(char)
local p = char:FindFirstChild("Grass") or char:FindFirstChild("Rock")
if h then
local rocks = char:WaitForChild("RocksLeft")
if #ff > 0 then --If there is more than one forcefield
local points = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char):WaitForChild("Points")
if rocks.Value > 0 then
rocks.Value = rocks.Value - 1
else
--To only destroy one forcefield do:
--ff[1]:Destroy()
--To remove all forcefields to:
--[[
for _,n in pairs(ff) do
n:Destroy()
end
--]]
end
if math.random(1,4) == 1 then
points.Value = points.Value + 100
end
script.Parent:Destroy()
else
if debounce == false then
debounce = true
h.Health = h.Health - 100
print 'rip'
script.Parent:Destroy()
wait(.5)
debounce = false
end
end
elseif p then
if math.random(1,3) == 1 then
script.Parent:Destroy()
end
end
end)
