How to destroy object locally?

Asked by

5 years ago

I’m sorry if my question is worded wrong, I think locally is the right term to use. How would you go about destroying an object when it is touched, but only for the player that touches it? It will still be there for other players until they touch it.

Thanks in advance so much

I created this LocalScript

local part = game:GetService("Workspace"):WaitForChild("Part") -- change "Part" to the part name

part.Touched:Connect(function(touch)
    local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(touch.Parent)
    if player ~= nil then
        if player == game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer then
            part:Destroy()
        end
    end
end)

Also, place this localscript in StarterPack

Just Change the Part in the local part to your parts name and you should be fine.

Thanks a lot! Worked perfectly. Fatal_disco 5 — 5y

Well actually, I tested it online and it doesn't work. In the studio it worked though. Online my character just climbs on top of the object, it don't get destroyed or anything. Fatal_disco 5 — 5y
