So currently I’m trying to make a death affect for my laser tag gun system. So far I have everything worked out, when the player is at 0 health the script properly activates. What I’m trying to achieve is make the entire character neon, blue, and anchored. So far I’m trying to use a For I, v in pairs loop, but what happens is that it just makes the head Blue and stays on the head.
Here is my death code:
local function kill(char,plr)
while wait(.01) do
for _, child in ipairs(char:GetChildren()) do
if child:IsA("Part") then
print(child)
child.BrickColor = plr.TeamColor
else
end
end
end
end
the parts of the body is baseparts so do if child isa part or basepart
local function kill(char,plr)
while wait(.01) do
for _, child in ipairs(char:GetChildren()) do
if child:IsA("BasePart") or child:IsA("Part") then
print(child)
child.BrickColor = plr.TeamColor
child.Anchored = true
child.Material = "Neon"
else
end
end
end
end
local function kill(char,plr)
for _, child in ipairs(char:GetChildren()) do
if child:IsA("BasePart") or child:IsA("Part") then
print(child)
child.BrickColor = plr.TeamColor
child.Anchored = true
child.Material = "Neon"
else
end
end
end
end
to make the function work here:
local Character = character -- get character
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character)
local Humanoid = character.Humanoid
Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Health"):Connect(function()
kill(Character,plr)
end)
You added a while wait loop which made it run forever so all you had to do is remove while wait. You should use PropertyGetChangedSignal() so you dont need while wait loops as it helps preformance.
This is the script. (Yes I’m fully aware its terrible, I’m going to clean it up soon)
game.ReplicatedStorage.BulletHandler.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, rayPos, rayDirection)
local rayCastParams = RaycastParams.new()
rayCastParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {plr.Character}
rayCastParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist
local rayCastResult = workspace:Raycast(rayPos, rayDirection, rayCastParams)
if rayCastResult then
local laserClone = game.ServerStorage.Laser:Clone()
laserColor(plr.TeamColor, laserClone)
laserClone.BrickColor = plr.TeamColor
laserClone.Position = rayPos
laserClone.Parent = game.Workspace
local distance = (rayCastResult.Position - rayPos).magnitude
laserClone.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(rayPos, rayCastResult.Position)
laserClone.Size = Vector3.new(.1,.6,distance)
laserClone.Position = laserClone.Position + laserClone.CFrame.LookVector * distance/2
if rayCastResult.Instance.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
print(rayCastResult.Instance.Name)
local hitHum = rayCastResult.Instance.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if hitHum then
if rayCastResult.Instance.Name == "Head" then
hitHum:TakeDamage(50)
if hitHum.Health <= 0 then
kill(hitHum.Parent,plr)
end
else
hitHum:TakeDamage(25)
if hitHum.Health <= 0 then
kill(hitHum.Parent,plr)
end
end
end
end
for i = 0 , 1, .1 do
wait(.01)
laserClone.Transparency = i
if i == 1 then
laserClone:Destroy()
end
end
end
end)
