Here is my script. It gives the hat and everything, except it doesn't stick the the players head:

01local debounce = true
02local timeinterval = 1
03local mesh = script.Parent.Mesh
04 
05script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(player)
06    local humanoid = player.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
07    if humanoid then
08        print("there is humanoid")
09        if not debounce then
10            return
11        end
12        debounce = false
13        --HatGive--
14        local hat = Instance.new("Hat")
15        local handle = Instance.new("Part")
16        local newmesh = mesh:Clone()
17        hat.Name = "GivenHatTesting"
18        hat.Parent = player.Parent
19        hat.AttachmentPos = Vector3.new(0, 0.6, 0)
20        handle.Parent = hat
21        handle.Position = player.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head").Position
22        handle.Name = "Handle"
23        handle.Size = Vector3.new(0,-0.25,0)
24        handle.BottomSurface = 0
25        handle.TopSurface = 0
26        handle.Locked = true
27        handle.formFactor = 0
28        newmesh.Parent = handle
29        --HatGive--
30        wait(timeinterval)
31        debounce = true
32    end
33end)

I had the same problem you are having for almost 2 weeks. I think I may be able to help.

So heres the code I use for my script. Just for you to look at, maybe bounce some ideas off of.

1-- Parents objects to character
2ClothingStorage.Imperials.AssaultClass.Helmet:clone().Parent = Character
3Character.Helmet.Handle.AccessoryWeld.Part0 = Character.Helmet.Handle
4Character.Helmet.Handle.AccessoryWeld.Part1 = Character.Head

What is does is it goes into ClothingStorage which is a folder inside ReplicatedStorage for me.

Then it parents the helmet to the character. The helmet is an accessory, it has all the parts inside it including a weld script and a handle.

Inside the handle is a weld.

It sets the welds to the helmet and then the other weld to the head.

Now back to you

Looking back at your script, it seems no where in your script do you actually create the weld.

So lets do that now :)

Anywhere there is a ------------- That means I have added that line

01local debounce = true
02local timeinterval = 1
03local mesh = script.Parent.Mesh
04 
05script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(player)
06    local humanoid = player.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
07    if humanoid then
08        print("there is humanoid")
09        if not debounce then
10            return
11        end
12        debounce = false
13        --HatGive--
14        local hat = Instance.new("Hat")
15        local handle = Instance.new("Part")
16----------------------------------------------------------
17    local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
18----------------------------------------------------------
19        local newmesh = mesh:Clone()
20        hat.Name = "GivenHatTesting"
21        hat.Parent = player.Parent
22        hat.AttachmentPos = Vector3.new(0, 0.6, 0)
23        handle.Parent = hat
24        handle.Position = player.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head").Position
25        handle.Name = "Handle"
26        handle.Size = Vector3.new(0,-0.25,0)
27        handle.BottomSurface = 0
28        handle.TopSurface = 0
29        handle.Locked = true
30        handle.formFactor = 0
31        newmesh.Parent = handle
32----------------------------------------------------------
33    weld.Name = "AccessoryWeld"
34    weld.Parent = handle
35    weld.Part0 = handle
36    weld.Part1 = player.Parent:WaitForChild("Head")
37----------------------------------------------------------
38        --HatGive--
39        wait(timeinterval)
40        debounce = true
41    end
42end)

Tell me if that works, I am not the best scripter in the world. So if it doesnt work then comment and ill see if I can fix it. :)

It works thanks so much! I dont really use welds because I dont use them correctly so they seem difficult lol but it worked! MusicalDisplay 173 — 7y
