Your issue is one of scope. The function is defined locally inside of a block of code. This means that your code will only see that function inside of the block that it was defined in. Here is my best explanation of scope. I don't know what you're trying to do, but because you have the :GetPlayerFromCharacter() you don't need it inside the PlayerAdded event. In fact, you are just creating additional unnecessary events every time a new player joins. I recommend putting the function outside of the PlayerAdded event. I hope this helps and have a great day scripting! Note: read the link I posted to more clearly understand how scope works.

As for the if statement you created, just put it into the touched function after creating a variable for player. User#21908 42 — 6y

hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(100)
end
end

1. Nice explanation. 2. findFirstChild and connect are deprecated. Use FindFirstChild and Connect. ee0w 458 — 6y
