welding part to head without touched event?
I want the Part to weld to the Character's Head when the player spawns into the game. But, welding don't have the PlayerAdded event. How would I go about this?
function JustWelding (hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
local head = hit.Parent.Head
local torso = hit.Parent.Torso
script.Parent.CFrame = head.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,5)
local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
weld.Part0 = torso
weld.C0 = torso.CFrame:inverse()
weld.Part1 = script.Parent
weld.C1 = script.Parent.CFrame:inverse()
weld.Parent = script.Parent
script.Parent.Anchored = false
end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(JustWelding)
It works great with the touched event! Now I need it to do it when the character spawns into the game.
Help would be appreciated!

For this, it would be better to use the CharacterAdded event rather than PlayerAdded, as the former will also run after the player respawns. You will need the PlayerAdded to connect a function to CharacterAdded, however. You will need to use the Character property of Player to get the player's character and use that for the function instead.
function JustWelding (character)
local head = character.Head
local torso = character.Torso
script.Parent.CFrame = head.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,5)
local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
weld.Part0 = torso
weld.C0 = torso.CFrame:inverse()
weld.Part1 = script.Parent
weld.C1 = script.Parent.CFrame:inverse()
wait() -- This seems to fix the problem.
weld.Parent = script.Parent
script.Parent.Anchored = false
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:connect(JustWelding)
end)

Fixed the problem. Not sure why this works; I haven't used welds in a while. IDidMakeThat 1135 — 8y
