Disabling not working

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 2:44am

i have a double jump script inside starterplayers
and I want to make it enable when touching the wall, then disables it one second later
but when I tested it, its not disabled and when I touched the wall it did nothing.
here’s the script:

local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local c = p.Character
c.REEE.disabled = true
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(Hit)
	
	if p then
		c.REEE.disabled = false
		wait(1)
		c.REEE.disabled = true
	end
	
end)

(I don’t find the script inside my character is that the reason?)
(btw its a local script inside the part does that have to do with anything?

if the script is a local script it has to be in ur player or character or else it wont run

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 2:52am

so do i do it in a normal script?

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 2:55am

i would recommend doing it in a normal script, if u need the player you can get the player using game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter()

how would i find the character?

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 2:59am

assuming that the script is located inside the part

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) then
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
end
end)

hmmm seems like the script don’t exist?

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(Hit)
	if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
		local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
		plr.Character.REEE.Disabled = false
		wait(1)
		plr.Character.REEE.Disabled = true
	
end
end)

i have it disabled cause i only want it to be flase when touching the part

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:08am

so you want the script “REEE” to be disabled while touching the part?

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 3:09am

yes, and reabled when 1 second later

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:10am

you did put a space between Character.REEE so it is Character .REEE instead, that might be the problem

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:11am

oh wait no sorry its just the spacing between the characters in that font

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:13am

what is the output error when u touch it

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 3:14am

blue line for line 4 says the output
and attemt to index nil with REEE

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:16am

make sure the server can see the REEE script, u can do so by pressing “Current server” in the home tab i think. Make sure the script also had time to load, try putting :WaitForChild(“REEE”)

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 3:20am

it says inf yeild possible with reee and line 5 have problem


script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(Hit)
	if Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') then
		local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
		local R = plr.Character:WaitForChild("REEE")
		R.Disabled = false
		wait(1)
		R.Disabled = true
	
end
end)

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:23am

the error is that the script cant find REEE so it has to be either a client script or it has already been deleted

foxnoobkite · August 9, 2021, 3:23am

hmm i wonder does disabled = deleted and never be seen again

4vI7 · August 9, 2021, 3:25am

disabled prevents the script from running and when enabled again it starts from the begging almost like re-executing the script

sausagerate · August 9, 2021, 3:28am

local part = script.Parent

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
     local plr = hit.Parent
     local plrs = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit)
     local plrss = plrs:WaitForChild("REEE")
     plrss.disabled = true
     if plrs ~= nil then
     plrss.disabled = false
     wait(1)
     plrss.disabled = true 
    end
end)
