Area Detection cooldown + kill script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

Here is the easier way. 1 script. Server Script in the part.

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
    if p then
        local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame
		if ui.Visible then
		    for i = 10, 0, -1 do 
                ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - "..i.."s"
                wait(1)
            end
			p.Humanoid.Health -= 500
		else
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 10s"
		end
    end
end)

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if p then
		local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame
		if ui.Visible then
			for i = 10, 0, -1 do 
				ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - "..i.."s"
				wait(1)
			end
			p.Humanoid.Health -= 500
		else
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 10s"
		end
	end
end)

Also why are we ending the script before killing the humanoid? Wouldn’t that render the countdown useless?

#23

Attempting this script lead to the same result:

  • No errors
  • No UI appearing
#24

Attempting this method:
local script in Cold parent

game.ReplicatedStorage.Activator.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
	
end)

Server Sided Script in part

local event = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Activator

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if plr then
		event:FireClient(plr)
	end
end)

local script in part

local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame
		if ui.Visible then
			for i = 10, 0, -1 do 
				ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - "..i.."s"
				wait(1)
			end
			p.Humanoid.Health -= 500
		else
	game.StarterGui.Cold.Frame.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 10s"
end
end
end)

Ended with the same issue as above

#25

There is an edited working script! Well it should be…

#26 
local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame.Visible

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local StarterGui = game:GetService('StarterGui')
		StarterGui.Cold.Frame.Visible = true
		if ui == true then
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 9s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 8s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 7s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 6s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 5s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 4s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 3s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 2s"
			wait(1)
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 1s"
		end
	end
end)

This script doesn’t work because of the line 2 issue (visibility then text label)

#27

First of all the local script shouldn’t be in the part if you read the instructions but the easy way there was something I messed up on here is the script that should work:


script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if p then
		local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame
		if ui.Visible then
			for i = 10, 0, -1 do 
				ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - "..i.."s"
				wait(1)
			end
			hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health -= 500
		else
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 10s"
		end
	end
end)
#28

Sorry, just move the .Visible

I edited the script!

#29

This won’t work anyways because you are once again using starter gui

#30

I was actually using PlayerGui, everywhere except for the part where they seemed to want StarterGui.

#31

But since where you set the visibility to true it was using starter GUI and not player GUI so it wont affect anything.

I have fixed that now in my script.

#33

Looking at this It has confused me. So I’ll tell you what I’ve done so far and what script types I’m using.

Script In Part:

Local Script In Part too

This I didn’t quite understand so I made it:

game.ReplicatedStorage.Activator.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
	
end)

For: image

Changing the name of scripts to make this easier to understand:

#34

So the one I said is easier:

should work (and it’s only that one script you won’t need the other scripts for the easier one), does it not?

So what I was saying is remove the local script from the part and put everything except for the touched event inside of the

#35

You got the source what wait() is going to be depricated?

#36

Also curious on where he got that

In other word, no UI has appeared, with no errors.

Try printing p and hit and hit.Parent

print(p, hit, hit.Parent)

Make sure you put that after the p variable

#39

Ah nevermind the prints I realized I forgot to add the line that makes it visible her you go:


script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
	if p then
		local ui = p.PlayerGui.Cold.Frame
        ui.Visible = true
		if ui.Visible then
			for i = 10, 0, -1 do 
				ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - "..i.."s"
				wait(1)
			end
			hit.Parent.Humanoid.Health -= 500
		else
			ui.TextLabel.Text = "Dangerous area turn around! - 10s"
		end
	end
end)

before i test that out, shouldnt i change these around? otherwise we end the script before killing
