How to make a onTouch event check if the player is on a team?

Asked 213 views1 answers

Ik this script isn't checking the player's team I've only defined blue at the top but IDK how to make it so it's checking if the player is on a certain team while touching, also any help on making it only fire once while they first touch it would be great! Thanks in advance I appreciate it, you guys are really helping me learn.

local blue = game.Teams.Blue:GetPlayers()

function yes() print("Doing Something") end

game.Workspace.Zone.Touched:Connect(yes)

You can have it only fire once by using :Disconnect on the Touched event.

local Players = game:GetService('Players")
local Teams = game:GetService("Teams")

local Part = workspace:WaitForChild("Zone")

function CheckForTeam(PlayerTouched, Team)
	for _,Player in pairs(Teams[Team]:GetPlayers()) do
		if (Player == PlayerTouched) then
			return true
		end
	end
	return false
end

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Touched)
	local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Touched.Parent)
	if (CheckForTeam(Player, "Blue")) then
		print(Touched.Parent.Name.." is allowed to touch this part")
	end
end)
