Please Help! I'm about to give Up on this. Or How do you Prevent a part from getting Touched in the first place?
local Part = script.Parent
local ignoretable = {"Humanoid"}
Part.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if hit.ignoretable then
else
---- code
end
end)
If you'd like to ignore players and certain parts then make a folder in workspace called "Ignore" and put them in there.
--Script
local ignore_list = workspace:WaitForChild("Ignore"):GetDescendants()
function touched(hit)
local ignored
for i, v in next, game.Players:GetPlayers() do --Gets all players in the session
for i, x in next, v.Character:GetDescendants() do --Gets all descendants of their characters
if x:IsA("BasePart") then --If it's a part, then;
table.insert(ignore_list, x) --Make it ignored
end
end
end
for i, v in next, ignore_list do --Scans the ignore list
if v == hit then
ignored = true --The hit is either a player or an ignored part
break --breaks the loop since it's an ignored part
end
end
if not ignored then
--code
end
end
This code is based off of instances rather than strings, just a heads up!
Something like this if you want to ignore all players:
local Part = script.Parent
Part.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if not hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- ignores all players
print("Not a player")
else
---- code
end
end)
If you want it to ignore certain parts then You can just iterate through all the ignoreParts, and check if it should be ignored or not. Something like this:
local Part = script.Parent
local ignoreTable = {"Part1", "Part2", "Part3"} -- put the part's names here
local function shouldIgnore(part)
local ignoreable = false
for _, v in pairs(ignoreTable) do
if v == part.Name then
ignoreable = true
end
end
return ignoreable
end
Part.Touched:connect(function(hit)
if shouldIgnore(hit) then -- ignores all players
print("Not in ignore list")
else
---- code
end
end)
Those are two ways of doing them, you get the idea, you can replace the names with objects of actual parts instead if you want.
Hope I helped, please let me know if you have any questions!
