Hat remover on Player Added?
So, I need to get a hat remover when a player enters a server, but haven't seen to get it working yet. Any tips? My code atm:
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function()
for _, object in pairs(player.Character:GetChildren()) do
if object:IsA("Hat") then
object:Destroy()
end
end
end)

The character doesn't load instantly, you will need another function to fire when the character is added, doing this also allows you to have them removed each time a player dies. The game.Players.PlayerAdded function is unnecessary as each time any player joins it will try to remove the player's hats. Here's the code you should be using assuming this is a local script:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char)
for _,obj in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
if obj:IsA("Hat") then
obj:Destroy()
end
end
end)
Instead of having this, you could use a server script in Workspace or ServerScriptService, here's the script you could use for that:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(char)
for _,obj in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
if obj:IsA("Hat") then
obj:Destroy()
end
end
end)
end)

Hm, in Studio, the hats still appear on the player. Do I have to test live? Sxerks3 65 — 8y

Try it testing live, I wrote the code on my phone so sorry about the missing )'s on some of the ends. I can't actually test the code because I'm on phone, but when I get on my computer I'll test it. General_Scripter 425 — 8y

It's alright; I've got the code to work, anyhow. I'll accept the answer, for your help. Thanks! Sxerks3 65 — 8y
