Gamepass Rainbow Trails Do Not Work?

Asked 384 views1 answers

I made a script so that my donators could get VIP trails but it doesn't seem to work, can anyone see why?

This is where the parts for the script is. Eg the trail and script itself. http://imgur.com/gallery/D6Ezu

This is the script.

local passIDs = {
	971425430;
	000000000
}

function playerHasPass(plr)
	for _,id in pairs(passIDs) do
		if game.MarketplaceService:PlayerOwnsAsset(plr, id) then
			return true
		end
	end
	return false
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
	local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if plr then
		if playerHasPass(plr) then
			game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
				player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		            local trail = game.ServerStorage.Trail:Clone()
		            trail.Parent = char.Head
		            local attachment0 = Instance.new("Attachment",char.Head)
		            attachment0.Name = "trailAttachment0"
		            local attachment1 = Instance.new("Attachment",char.Torso)
		            attachment1.Name = "TrailAttachment1"
		            trail.Attachment0 = attachment0
		            trail.Attachment1 = attachment1
				end)
			end)
		else
			print ("Player doesnt have the pass")
		end
	end
end)

I'm not very good with scripts, so if anyone could find out, could you send me a script fix and a explanation please?

The way your script is set up now will wait for a player who has the pass to touch the button, then it will give the trail to all future players who enter the server. You need to choose whether you want the VIP to given when they press the button, or when they enter the server, but not both.

Here's an example when they enter the server:

...
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) --When a player enters..
	if playerHasPass(plr) then --Check if they have the pass
	    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) --When their character spawns, give them the VIP trails.
	        local trail = game.ServerStorage.Trail:Clone()
	        trail.Parent = char.Head
	        local attachment0 = Instance.new("Attachment",char.Head)
	        attachment0.Name = "trailAttachment0"
	        local attachment1 = Instance.new("Attachment",char.Torso)
	        attachment1.Name = "TrailAttachment1"
	        trail.Attachment0 = attachment0
	        trail.Attachment1 = attachment1
	    end)
    end
end)

And here's one for a button press:

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
    if plr then
        if playerHasPass(plr) then
        	--Do the trail stuff
        end
    end
end
