How do I stop a humanoid getting hurt when fire is doused out?
So I followed the tutorial in the ROBLOX Wiki: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Lighting_Parts_on_Fire I feel like I wasn't satisfied with my script, so I edit it so the humanoid who touches the Lava part will get hurt in real-time. However, If the fire on the person is doused out, it will still hurt the humanoid until it dies. I've added something on line 10 that if it's destroyed, it will stop hurting the humanoid, but that doesn't work.
firePart = game.Workspace.Lava
waterPart = game.Workspace.Water
function imonfire(part)
print(part.Name .. " is on fire!")
local fire = Instance.new("Fire")
fire.Parent = part
local humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
repeat
if fire:Destroy() == true then return end
wait(1)
humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health - 1
until humanoid.Health == 0
end
firePart.Touched:connect(imonfire)
function water(part)
local fire = part:FindFirstChild("Fire")
if fire then
print(part.Name .. " is not on fire anymore!")
fire:Destroy()
end
end
waterPart.Touched:connect(water)
Sorry if this doesn't make any sense.

Hello there! What the green developer said was true, but it doesn't solve your problem. I will be helping you today with a simple fix.
First you want to add a script into ServerScriptService. This will be like making leaderstats. Call the script anything you want and put this code in;
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) --When Player joins
local PlayerStatus = Instance.new("Folder") --A place to store player status
PlayerStatus.Name = "PlayerStatus"
PlayerStatus.Parent = player
local Burning = Instance.new("BoolValue")
Burning.Name = "Burning"
Burning.Value = false
Burning.Parent = PlayerStatus
local BurnDmg = Instance.new("NumberValue")
BurnDmg.Name = "BurnDmg"
BurnDmg.Value = 1
BurnDmg.Parent = PlayerStatus
end)
Now we have a new Burning status and a damage status!
Now time to edit your script;
local firePart = game.Workspace.Lava
local waterPart = game.Workspace.Water
firePart.Touched:connect(function(Hit)
local Burning = Hit.Parent:WaitForChild("PlayerStatus").Burning.Value
local BurnDmg = Hit.Parent:WaitForChild("PlayerStatus").BurnDmg.Value
if Burning = false then
Burning = true --Make sure the player is burning
BurnDmg = 1 --For repeats
print(part.Name .. " is on fire!")
local fire = Instance.new("Fire")
fire.Parent = Hit.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Torso")
local humanoid = Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
while true do
wait(1)
humanoid.health = humanoid.health - BurnDmg --TAKES DAMAGE
if humaoid.health = 0 then
Burning = false
BurnDmg = 0
fire:Destroy()
end
end
end
end)
waterPart.Touched:connect(function(Hit)
local Burning = Hit.Parent:WaitForChild("PlayerStatus").Burning.Value
local BurnDmg = Hit.Parent:WaitForChild("PlayerStatus").BurnDmg.Value
print("What you need to say")
if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("fire") then
Burning = false
fire:Destroy()
BurnDmg = 0
end
end)
This is a lot of work but you get the idea. This will solve your problem, now the script probably does have some errors or stuff you don't want but you can remove them and solve the errors (I wrote everything here in rush). Anyway thanks for reading and if this helped you or gave you and idea (which is still helping ) then please Upvote and accept the answer!

break will end the current while or repeat thread, you could also use repeat until instead, but an example of break is
local startingtick = tick()
while true do
if (tick() - startingtick) > 5 then
break --this will break the while true do loop after 5 seconds
end
wait()
end
