Need help with 2D platformer. Help?

Asked by

I am making a 2D platformer game, I have nailed the control and camera, I just need help with the teleport lava (Lava that TP's you to start) scripts. Currently I have this

function onTouched(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then -- Because object "hit" is just "Left Leg" or "Right Leg"
        game.Workspace.???.Torso.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-43, 10, 13))
    end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

The ??? is what I am stuck on. I need help on identifying a certain Instance by Name, not ClassName.

If you are just trying to get the torso of the player that touched it, just use hit.Parent since that would point to the character object.

function onTouched(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then -- Because object "hit" is just "Left Leg" or "Right Leg"
        hit.Parent.Torso.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(-43, 10, 13))
    end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)
