#3 
local KDHandler = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("KDHandler")
if not KDHandler then
script.Parent.Console:Destroy()
end

(I don’t know you hierarchy so I am just guessing)

#5

Yep, as long as the script that is checking if it is deleted is in the same parent.

#6

Would it still work if I place it in the top of an existing random script?

#7

Or you could do something like this:

local found = false
local console = --define here
for I, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do
        if v.Name == "KDHandler" then
                found = true
                break
         end
end

if found == false then
    console:Destroy()
end

Whats the difference between yours and AWhale’s script?

Oops, I misread it and you wanted to search through the entire workspace.

Why would the console be renamed?

#13

That wont happen because the server checks the changes and any client changes don’t matter to the server.

#14

This would be sold as a product, and people that leak these by sharing the rbxm file to another person, they would try their best to bypass the whitelist, deleter and stuff.

#16 
local console = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Console")

if you still get the error then ur most likely changing it on the server.

#17

What do I do with that? Im using this script:
local found = false

local console = game.Workspace.Console

for I, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do

if v.Name == "KDHandler" then

found = true

break

end

end

if found == false then

console:Destroy()

end

And no its not about client stuff, it would get renamed in studio. And the script wouldn’t work because it wasn’t able to find the specific name “Console”

#18

on the first line:

local console = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Console")
#19

Welp. image

#20

You could try using:

for i,v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetDescendants()) do 
--Check for the item here

end

Or you could do:

if not game:FindFirstAncestor("KDHandler") then

game.Workspace.Console:Destroy()

end

Hope this helps you fix your problem!

EDIT:
Turns out I was using the wrong method. Fixed it now.

#21

ok so this means Console isn’t a valid member of Workspace, is all the spelling right?

#22

Instance:FindFirstDescendant does not exist as a proper method, you would do
Instance:FindFirstChild("name", true) for finding a descendant

#24

If an exploiter renames the console, it wouldn’t affect anything because whatever an exploiter does isn’t reflected to the server
