What is wrong with this simple script?
Hi there! What is wrong with this simple script? Thanks in advance!
TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue") ---For this script to work, i need --the exact color of the team that may touch it only replace the stuff inside ""
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
print(hit)
if hit.Parent.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("Bright blue") then
hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health = 0
else return
end
end)

The Character (the physical component of the Player) doesn't have a TeamColor property. It's just a Model.
In addition, you currently aren't doing a check to prevent errors involving the possible non-existence of hit.Parent or of hit.Parent.Humanoid.
We have to get the Player object corresponding to the Character and check its TeamColor.
script.Parent.Touched:connect( function(hit)
if hit.Parent then
-- Check to prevent errors
local character = hit.Parent
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
if player and player.TeamColor == TeamColor then
-- It actually is a Player (not some other object)
-- and they are on the `TeamColor` colored team
character.Humanoid.Health = 0
end
end
end )

Well, actually - i'm not sure - i thought I'd solved it because it wanted a name for the function so i did function die(hit) but it still doesn't work :( jjwood1600 215 — 9y

Sorry, I only posted the function itself without the connection, but forgot to mention it. I edited it to include the connection correctly now BlueTaslem 18071 — 9y
