If "specific" player enters game, add hat to only them?
I've tried making so when a specific player (let's say me) enters the game, a script will put a hat on their head. It's like Ontouch but without touching it. And when you die the script will re-add the hat(s) back onto you. This have been troubling me for weeks and I cannot seem to find the answer, does anyone know of a script that could make this work ? Much obliged if you can figure it out!
I already have this default script I always start from but keep getting nowhere with it.
01 | debounce = true |
02 |
03 | function onTouched(hit) |
04 | if (hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil and debounce == true) then |
05 | debounce = false |
06 | h = Instance.new("Hat") |
07 | p = Instance.new("Part") |
08 | h.Name = "CinnamonHair" |
09 | p.Parent = h |
10 | p.Position = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Head").Position |
11 | p.Name = "Handle" |
12 | p.formFactor = 0 |
13 | p.Size = Vector3.new(1, 2.4, 2) |
14 | p.BottomSurface = 0 |
15 | p.TopSurface = 0 |
I was thinking you could replace "onTouched" with a player detect with a player id or name associated with it. If that's possible?

thecanadiangamesnerd's answer is frankly wrong and won't work.
The key to this problem is to hook onto the right moment.
The best event I can think of to use is DescendantAdded. This event occurs when something enters the workspace, at any level. We'll specifically look for a "Head" inside of a character of the right name.
We then apply the same hat giving procedure you offered to that model (instead of hit.Parent)
01 | function giveHat(character) |
02 | local h = Instance.new("Hat") |
03 | local p = Instance.new("Part") |
04 | h.Name = "CinnamonHair" |
05 | p.Parent = h |
06 | p.Position = character:FindFirstChild("Head").Position |
07 | p.Name = "Handle" |
08 | p.formFactor = 0 |
09 | p.Size = Vector3.new(1, 2.4, 2) |
10 | p.BottomSurface = 0 |
11 | p.TopSurface = 0 |
12 | p.Locked = true |
13 | script.Parent.Mesh:clone().Parent = p |
14 | h.Parent = character |
15 | h.AttachmentForward = Vector3.new(-0, -0.0995, -0.995) |
Hi there.
1 | function onPlayerAdded(newplayer) |
2 | if newplayer.Name == "Person" then |
3 | --Your hat placing stuff goes here. |
4 | end |
5 | end |
6 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onPlayerAdded) |
Enjoy, and happy scripting!

@thecanadiangamesnerd I've tried multiple ways to make this work ingame and it still doesn't
01 | function onPlayerAdded(newplayer) |
02 | if newplayer.Name == "EastHalo0" then |
03 |
04 | debounce = false |
05 | h = Instance.new("Hat") |
06 | p = Instance.new("Part") |
07 | h.Name = "CinnamonHair" |
08 | p.Parent = h |
09 | p.Position = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Head").Position |
10 | p.Name = "Handle" |
11 | p.formFactor = 0 |
12 | p.Size = Vector3.new(1, 2.4, 2) |
13 | p.BottomSurface = 0 |
14 | p.TopSurface = 0 |
15 | p.Locked = true |
