How do you make a players accessories invisible on click?

Asked 289 views1 answers

I'm wondering how to make a players accessories invisible on click.

I'm helping a friend code a tank into Roblox but I ran into a slight inconvenience.

I know how to make a players Torso, Left Arm, Left Leg, Right Arm, Right Leg and Head invisible but I'm not quite sure not to make a players accessories invisible.

This is what I have so far:

Tank.MeshPart1.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Click)
	
	local Character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
	
	if InTank == false then
	
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Torso.Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character["Left Arm"].Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character["Left Leg"].Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character["Right Arm"].Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character["Right Leg"].Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Head.Transparency = 1
		
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Transparency = 1
		
		
		
		
		
		
		InTank = true
		
	end
	
end)

It works but I still need to get rid of the players accessories.

I looked everywhere to find an answer but I just couldn't find one.

If anyone knows how to do this, please help.

It is simpler to run a generic for loop on the character's descendants, this way you can obtain all of the parts and change their transparency.

local ts = {}



Tank.MeshPart1.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Click)

    local Character = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character

    if not InTank then
	
	for i,v in next, Character:GetDescendants() do
		if v:IsA("BasePart") and v.Name ~= "HumanoidRootPart" then
			ts[v.Name] = v.Transparency
			v.Transparency = 1
		end
	end
        
        InTank = true

    end

end)

Since we added all the parts' transparencies to a dictionary, we can now also undo the Transparency, like this:

for i,v in next, Character:GetDescendants() do
	if ts[v.Name] then
		v.Transparency = ts[v.Name]
	end
end
