Why does my code not work when a player touches the part?
Here's my problem.
I have a part named BARISTADOOR, and a Local Script named BARISTADOORSCRIPT.
(The Local Script is in the part.)
This is the code that is in the Local Script.
game.Workspace.BARISTADOOR.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if player then
if player:GetRankInGroup(5370359) >= 12 then
game.Workspace.BARISTADOOR.CanCollide = false
end
end
end)
Whenever a player touches the part, I need it to do,
if player:GetRankInGroup(5370359) >= 12 then game.Workspace.BARISTADOOR.CanCollide = false` end
Only for the client that touched te part.
But it's not doing anything when I touch it.
Can someone explain why this does not work?
Thank you.

An easy way to do this on the server side is to use PhysicsService and collision groups. This would allow you to set the door and players in a collision group so they don't collide.
Server Script in ServerScriptService
local physicsService = game:GetService("PhysicsService");
local door = workspace:FindFirstChild("BARISTADOOR");
local groupId, minRank = 5370359, 12;
physicsService:CreateCollisionGroup("Barista"); --Create collision group
physicsService:CollisionGroupSetCollidable("Barista", "Barista", false); --Set collision group to not collide with itself
physicsService:SetPartCollisionGroup(door, "Barista"); --Add door to collision group
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
if player:GetRankInGroup(groupId) >= minRank then --Check the players rank when they join
local function setGroup(character)
for _, obj in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
if obj:IsA("BasePart") then --Check if object is a part
physicsService:SetPartCollisionGroup(part, "Barista"); --Add the part to the collision group
end;
end;
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(setGroup); --Run this each time the character is added
end;
end);

Local scripts don't run in workspace, just move it to somewhere like StarterPlayerScripts and it's gonna be fine
