If Block Has Specific Parent?

Asked by

Sorry for the repetitive questions, but I am working on learning by doing and I think that this is the best way to figure something out if I don't know the correct terminology to search.

script.Parent.Catch.Touched:connect(function(otherPart)
    print(otherPart)
    if otherPart == script.Parent.Parent.Parent.MoneyBricks then otherPart:Destroy()
        print ("Part deleted")
    end
end)

In this script I'm trying to set a requirement for a block, if it's parent is "MoneyBricks" then it would be deleted, but this script doesn't work and I was curious for the correct way to go about doing this.

You were mostly correct, you want to check the Parent of otherPart and then remove it. Parent is a property of otherPart so you can just check if otherPart.Parent equals something.
