What's wrong with my kill brick?
1 | function kill(victim) |
2 | victim.Parent.Humanoid.Health=0 |
3 | end |
4 |
5 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(kill) |
My question is why it kills only one time then says "Disconnected event because of exception." Is it because there's not an if-then statement in there?

Try this instead:
1 | function kill(victim) |
2 | if victim.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then |
3 | victim.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0 |
4 | end |
5 | end |

Thanks. I am still confused why mine didn't work. Can you explain? Restic 15 — 11y

The script probably broke when a part that didn't have a Humanoid touched it. This script first checks if the part's parent has a humanoid before trying to change it so that if it encounters a part without a humanoid, it will not break jav2612 180 — 11y

Here's the more common version:
1 | function onTouched (part) |
2 | local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") |
3 | if(h~=nil)then |
4 | h.Health = 0 |
5 | end |
6 | end |

8 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch) |
EDITED! Should work

This should work
1 | function onTouch(part) |
2 | local humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") |
3 | if (humanoid ~= nil) then -- if a humanoid exists, then |
4 | humanoid.Health = 0 -- damage the humanoid |
5 | end |
6 | end |
7 | script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch) |
