What you did wrong was that you weren't connecting the function. You were just saying what the function does. The last line of code basically connects the function 'onTouch' to script.Parent.Touched (when part is touched). Florian27 76 — 7y

Oops. Change the last line (script.Parent) to wherever your part is located. Florian27 76 — 7y

Well, the function is not connected. You can try the following:

local CanPlay = true -- To prevent the song from playing multiple times.
local CanKill = true

function Play(hit)
    local Song = workspace.YourSong
    if hit.Parent:IsA("Model") and hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- We check for a humanoid and if the hit's parent is a Model.
        if CanPlay and CanKill then -- If CanPlay and CanKill are true.
            hit.Parent:BreakJoints() -- We kill the Character.
            CanPlay = false 
            CanKill = false -- We set both variables to false.
            Song:Play() -- We play the song.
            wait(5) -- 5 Second delay.
            CanPlay = true 
            CanKill = true -- We set both variables to true.
        end
    end
end

script.Parent.Touched:connect(Play) -- In my case, I parent the script to the Part.

Hope that helped. (Sorry for any mistakes, grammar mistakes or bad explanation.)
