So basically, I've been making this attack script and I really need this damage thing to work, here's what I got right now, it's meant to work but doesn't. Can anyone please hint out the mistake?
part.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil then
if hit.Parent.Name ~= Player.Name then
hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(math.huge)
end
end
end)
Is this what you meant?
local playername = "tantec" -- name of the player NOT to deal damage to.
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers())do
if v and v.Character and v.Character:IsAncestorOf(hit) then
if v.Name:lower() ~= playername:lower() then
v.Character:BreakJoints()
end
end
end
end)
part should be defined so maybe put the script under the part and use script.Parent
don't use :connect instead use :Connect
=nil is also not needed and you shouldn't use **hit.Parent=Player.Name**
instead, just use if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
math.huge is an infinite value so you can just do max damage or a certain integer hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0
your script should end up like
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = 0
end
end)

I don't get it. Why do people keep complaining about using :connect or :Connect? It's a RBXSignal, what diffirences are there between those two?
None. One's deprecated. Not really an issue.
I don't think I've rephrased this properly, basically the original script was meant to kill others and not myself, plus the script that I'm using is for script builder so I can't do it like that. Also, the script works on a part that's not touching me so I think the problem is that it's only getting my name and no one else because it spawns from me
