How To Make My Touched Script Filtering Enabled?
Hello... I am getting the hang of using filtering enabling to ensure user safety but I only know how to use it on Screen Gui related stuff. How can I make this Touched and TouchEnded function work with filtering enabled?
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local plr = workspace[hit.Parent.Name]
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(plr)
player.PlayerGui.GeneralStoreMusic:Play()
end
end)
script.Parent.TouchEnded:connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local plr = workspace[hit.Parent.Name]
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(plr)
player.PlayerGui.GeneralStoreMusic.Playing = false
end
end)

Listen for the BasePart.Touched event client-side, and modify the GUI client-side. There's no point doing this server-side at all, you are merely wasting bandwith and adding latency this way.
Alternatively, listen for Humanoid.Touched client-side! Also worth pointing out that BasePart.TouchEnded will fire a ton when an object like a character is walking into it, so I recommend using a loop in the touched listener that checks for the distance away from the object before making the GUI disappear, and adding a debounce on making the GUI appear.
Fire a Remote Event to the client.

In a LocalScript inside StarterGui:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
repeat wait() until player.Character
local part = -- Reference your part here
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent == player.Character then
player.PlayerGui.GeneralStoreMusic:Play()
end
end)
part.TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent == player.Character then
player.PlayerGui.GeneralStoreMusic.Playing = false
end
end)
