What's wrong with this simple script?

Asked by

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function()
    script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    local Scrip = script.Parent
    Instance.new("Explosion", game.Workspace.Part)
    local Explosion = game.Workspace.Part.Explosion
    game.Workspace.Part.Explosion.Position = Scrip.Position
end)

How come the position isn't in the script's Parent's position? It just does into workspace. And I don't see any CratersAndDebris when it explodes neither. Can you help?

Try this

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function()
  local Scrip = script.Parent
Instance.new("Explosion", game.Workspace.Part)
local Explosion = game.Workspace.Part.Explosion
game.Workspace.Part.Explosion.Position = Scrip.Position
end)

Worked for me

Best of Luck

Yeah, it says 21:47:16.290 - Workspace.Part.Script:6: attempt to index local 'expl' (a boolean value) james24dj 90 — 8y

My bad! It says "Positon". You spelled Position wrong. I'll test it now. james24dj 90 — 8y

Wait, is it because I'm testing in "Test Mode" and not "Server Mode"? james24dj 90 — 8y

OMFG IT DOESNT WORK!!! IT KEEPS EXPLODING THE WORKSPACE AT (0, 0, 0) AND THE BRICK AT THE SAME TIME!! This is frustrating! james24dj 90 — 8y

It's on your side, post your script. Everything is working for me, it's exploding and killing me right where the brick is. Async_io 908 — 8y

My God, I'm gonna update my comment to show you what I have. I just don't understand why the server is putting an explosion instance into Workspace. james24dj 90 — 8y

I give up. Good lord, What in my script does it say -- ANYWHERE -- to put an instance at 0, 0, 0?! james24dj 90 — 8y

Ok! I think I'm seeing something! When I FIRST touch the brick, ONLY THE BRICK explodes and kills me, any other time in that server/game, the workspace explodes with it. james24dj 90 — 8y
