Humanoid's health won't TakeDamage on Touch?

Asked by

I created a Tool with only a brick and a script in it. I created a humanoid with only a part named Head in it. When the Tool touches the Humanoid part, the humanoid should lose 10 health. But nothing happens.

The script:

script.Parent.Handle.Touched:connect(function(part)
    part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if found then
        Humanoid:TakeDamage(10)
    end
end)

What's wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean by if found then, because that wouldn't work. Also you didn't define Humanoid. You could simply do it like this:

script.Parent.Handle.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if hum ~= nil then
        hum:TakeDamage(10)
    end
end)

I thought that the hit event only applied to Explosions? Why are you using it here? emite1000 335 — 10y

hit is just the function name. systematicaddict 295 — 10y
