Check if part is touching

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, i have spawner system but i need to check every second if part named hitbox is touching script.parent

Soo far i tried this but it stops working randomly:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(brick)
	if brick.Name == "hitbox" then
		script.Parent.Parent.Folder.Two.Value = "1"
	end
end)

script.Parent.TouchEnded:Connect(function(brick)
	if brick.Name == "hitbox" then
		script.Parent.Parent.Folder.Two.Value = "0"
	end
end)
#2

I dont know but maybe try using region3?

#3 
while wait(1) do
	local touchingParts: table = script.Parent:GetTouchingParts()
	for _, part in pairs(touchingParts) do
		if (part.Name == "hitbox") then
			-- A part named "hitbox" is touching script.Parent
		end
	end
end

Reference: BasePart:GetTouchingParts (roblox.com)

Oh yes that can be used tho ^
I forgot :GetTouchingParts() exists
But @luketeam5 u can use that tho like @MrNicNac said

This could work in theory but problem is that i need to set the value to 0 if it isn’t touching

while wait(1) do
	local touchingParts = script.Parent:GetTouchingParts()
	for _, part in pairs(touchingParts) do
		if (part.Name == "hitbox") then
			script.Parent.Parent.Folder.One.Value = 1 -- This works just fine!
		else
			script.Parent.Parent.Folder.One.Value = 0 -- However this not, if value is 1 some random brick can overwrite it and set it to 0
		end
	end
end

In that case introduce a boolean to the system.

while wait(1) do
	local touchingParts: table = script.Parent:GetTouchingParts()
	local hasHitbox: bool = false
	for _, part in pairs(touchingParts) do
		if (part.Name == "hitbox") then
			hasHitbox = true
			break
		end
	end
	if (hasHitbox) then
		script.Parent.Parent.Folder.One.Value = 1
	end
end
