Checking whenever a player sits on a Seat part, is there a better way to get that player?
Whenever the script.Parent (SeatPart) has a child added, I get the SeatPart's SeatWeld and get that weld's Part1. If that part's Parent is a character of a player, it prints "A player sat down!". Is there a better way to define the player that sat down on the part?
Here's the code:
script.Parent.ChildAdded:Connect(function(part)
print("Sat down!")
local part = script.Parent.SeatWeld.Part1
local plr = part.Parent
if game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(plr) then
print("A player sat down!")
end
end)

You can access the player who is sitting on the seat through the Occupant value which is located inside the seat like i have done below
local Seat = script.Parent
function SitDetection(Child)
if Child.Name == "SeatWeld" then
local Character = Seat.Occupant.Parent
local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character)
print(Player.Name)
print(Character.Name)
end
end
Seat.ChildAdded:Connect(SitDetection)
