Click to add particle effect on all player parts

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

i have this script which makes it so a part plays a sound when clicked. now i still want it to make a sound but i also want it to inject a certain particle effect onto all player parts.
already owned things below:

the properties of the certain particle effect:

the script to play sound when clicked:

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function() 
     script.Parent.woosh.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1839756886"
     script.Parent.woosh:Play()
end)

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr) 
     script.Parent.woosh.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1839756886"
     script.Parent.woosh:Play()
     for i, v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
         if v:IsA("MeshPart") then
            local particle = script.Parent.ParticleEmitter:Clone()
            particle.Parent = v
            particle.Transparency = 0
         end
     end
end)

This might be it

is there a way to put the particles i made? like that i name the particles or something and then it gets those particles for the script?

#4

I dont understand what u mean (30 characters)

#5

i put the picture of the properties of a particle effect i made, i want that to be the particle effect to be on the players parts. i was thinking it wouldve been easier if i named the particles a certain way to make it easier to script?

#6

Do it however u like it to be, the difference is just in name since ur cloning the ParticleEmitter

#7

so do i change the particleemitter in the script to the name of the particle emitter i made? also what are the locations? the current locations for the sound stuff is already set but idk where to put the particle emitter part.

#8

So in the script I wrote, ParticleEmitter is located inside of that part with click detector and its named “ParticleEmitter”

#9

yes, it works, but only on the lower left arm on the player.

#10

What about this?

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr) 
     script.Parent.woosh.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1839756886"
     script.Parent.woosh:Play()
     for i, v in pairs(plr.Character:GetChildren()) do
         if v:IsA("MeshPart") or v:IsA("BasePart") then
            local particle = script.Parent.ParticleEmitter:Clone()
            particle.Parent = v
            particle.Transparency = 0
         end
     end
end)

now only on torso, it needs to be on all player parts

#12

If you checked the output, you’d notice that the line particle.Transparency = 0 would error when it inserts it into the torso, so that’s why it only inserts it into the torso. This is because the Transparency property of a ParticleEmitter requires a NumberSequence value, but it is given a number, hence why the error would occur.

It’s better to just toggle the Enabled property of the ParticleEmitter, if it’s disabled at first:

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr) 
     script.Parent.woosh.SoundId = "rbxassetid://1839756886"
     script.Parent.woosh:Play()
     for i, v in pairs(plr.Character:GetDescendants()) do
         if  v:IsA("BasePart") then
            local particle = script.Parent.ParticleEmitter:Clone()
            particle.Enabled = true
            particle.Parent = v
         end
     end
end)

You can use GetDescendants rather than GetChildren if you want the particles in the accessories too, but if not you can just use GetChildren. The v:IsA("MeshPart") in if v:IsA("MeshPart") or v:IsA("BasePart") then is redundant because a MeshPart is inherited from a BasePart
