Why isnt this damage script damaging the player?
i have been trying to make this script work for quite some time now and cant seem to get it to work. the script is supposed to damage the player who touched the brick and have a cool down so it doesent do 10 damage like every second and is a instant kill.
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local human = hit:findFirstChild ("Humanoid")
if script.Parent.AttackCool.Value == true then
script.Parent.AttackCool.Value = false
human.Health = human.Health - 10
wait(.1)
script.Parent.AttackCool.Value = true
print ("dmg taken")
else
wait()
end
end)
AttackCool is a bool value in the part btw

I personally like to store my bools inside the script;
--Make sure it's a normal script...
local brick = script.Parent
local canDMG = brick:WaitForChild("AttackCool") --Waits until the boolvalue loads in
brick.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if hum and canDMG.Value then --No need to add the == true
canDMG.Value = false
hum:TakeDamage(10) --Deals 10 damage to the target humanoid
print("Damage taken!")
wait(0.1)
canDMG.Value = true
end
end)
