Am I using GetChildren() correctly?
script.Parent.OnTouch:connect(function()
for i,p in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Truck:GetChildren()) do
for i = 1,200 do
p.CFrame = p.CFrame * CFrame.new(.4,0,0)
wait(.1)
end
end
end)
For some reason, this script doesn't work. It works with changing size, but not position. There's also this script:
script.Parent.OnTouch:connect(function()
wait(6)
for i,p in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Parts:GetChildren()) do
for i = 1,10 do
p.CFrame = p.CFrame * CFrame.new(.25,0,0)
wait(.1)
end
p.Anchored = false
end
end)

Keep in mind when you use "GetChildren()". They take ALL the children of the parent. Including scripts and such that do not have positions or CFrame Necrorave 560 — 10y

script.Parent.OnTouch:connect(function()
There is no OnTouch event. That is what people sometimes name their functions that they plan to connect to the Touched event, but the actual event is called Touched, not OnTouch. So,
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function()
should work.
for i,p in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Parts:GetChildren()) do
for i = 1,10 do
You have two i variables. I would recommend that you rename one of them to something else.
for index,p in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Parts:GetChildren()) do
for i = 1,10 do
I would also recommend that you add a debounce. A debounce is just a bool value that prevents the touched event from being triggered many times at once.
local debounce = false
script.Parent.OnTouch:connect(function()
if debounce == false then
debounce = true --Prevents the code from running until it equals false again.
for i,p in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Truck:GetChildren()) do
for i = 1,200 do
p.CFrame = p.CFrame * CFrame.new(.4,0,0)
wait(.1)
end
end
debounce = false --Lets it run again
end
end)
