How to enable a script by touching a brick?
For the past few days, I've been trying to make an animation play when I touch a jump boost brick. I've tried to do it with different scripts but I realized I can have the script that plays the animation when I press space disabled, then a script in the brick enables it when I touch it.
This is the script I've come up with:
local lolxbork = script.Parent
local function steppedOn(part)
local parent = part.Parent
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(parent) then
game.StarterPack.animation.Disabled=false
end
end
lolxbork.Touched:connect(steppedOn)
When I collide with the brick, nothing happens, and I only get the jump boost from the brick right in front of it.
Then I remembered this site exists, so I'm asking what the error is.
Thanks!

Starterpack clones the items into every player's backpack. It isn't where the physical item is stored, so by linking to starterpack you're not linking to the character's backpack. Instead of doing
game.StarterPack.animation.Disabled
on line 6,
you would do
game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(parent).animation.Disabled
since the animation script that animates the player would be in their backpack.
