CanTouch Property For Player?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So let’s just say that I want to make CanTouch false for all players. Is there a way to do this? If so, how exactly can I do this?

This script disables collisions for all players.

local PhysicsService = game:GetService("PhysicsService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
 
local playerCollisionGroupName = "Players"
PhysicsService:CreateCollisionGroup(playerCollisionGroupName)
PhysicsService:CollisionGroupSetCollidable(playerCollisionGroupName, playerCollisionGroupName, false)
 
local previousCollisionGroups = {}
 
local function setCollisionGroup(object)
  if object:IsA("BasePart") then
    previousCollisionGroups[object] = object.CollisionGroupId
    PhysicsService:SetPartCollisionGroup(object, playerCollisionGroupName)
  end
end
 
local function setCollisionGroupRecursive(object)
  setCollisionGroup(object)
 
  for _, child in ipairs(object:GetChildren()) do
    setCollisionGroupRecursive(child)
  end
end
 
local function resetCollisionGroup(object)
  local previousCollisionGroupId = previousCollisionGroups[object]
  if not previousCollisionGroupId then return end 
 
  local previousCollisionGroupName = PhysicsService:GetCollisionGroupName(previousCollisionGroupId)
  if not previousCollisionGroupName then return end
 
  PhysicsService:SetPartCollisionGroup(object, previousCollisionGroupName)
  previousCollisionGroups[object] = nil
end
 
local function onCharacterAdded(character)
  setCollisionGroupRecursive(character)
 
  character.DescendantAdded:Connect(setCollisionGroup)
  character.DescendantRemoving:Connect(resetCollisionGroup)
end
 
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
  player.CharacterAdded:Connect(onCharacterAdded)
end
 
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)

This script disables player collisions, but does not make CanTouch false for all players. So how exactly would I make CanTouch false for all players using a script? Is this even possible?

Also I am referring to the CanTouch property and not the CanCollide property. This post should explain the difference between the two properties.

…You should be able to just set the property to false in all the limbs, yeah?

So I can go to the StarterCharacter and set CanTouch to false there?

Ohh I see, the following code should do what you’re looking for (and you could definitely combine this with your other script!!)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
 plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
  for _,Limb in character:GetChildren() do
   if Limb:IsA("BasePart") then
    Limb.CanTouch = false
   end
  end
 end
end)

Try this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		for i, v in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
			if v:IsA("BasePart") then
				v.CanTouch = false
			end
		end
	end)
end)

--ServerScript BTW
