Doing something after a player dies/resets

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I want to create an afk system where if they die/reset, they automatically get tp’ed back to the afk house. I already have a “system” written, but when I test it, it fails to tp me

This is the system that I have so far

function checkUser(plrName)
	local plrChar = game.Players:FindFirstChild(plrName).Character
	local didDie = false
	if plrChar.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
		didDie = true
	end
	if didDie == true then
		if not plrChar.Humanoid.Health == 0 then
			plrChar:MoveTo(game.Workspace["AFK Place"].Spawn.Position)
		end
	end
end

There’s no errors in the console, so I don’t have anything to go on

do this:

plrChar.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
    --code
end)

You can use the Humanoid.Died event to detect when a player dies, and the Player.CharacterAdded event to tell when a character respawns.

Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
   --character was loaded
end)

Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
    --character has died
end)

Oh, I didn’t know that .Died was a thing

I tried doing that, still didn’t work, now it’s the following code

plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		if table.find(afkedPlayers, plr.Name) then
			plr.Character:MoveTo(game.Workspace["AFK Place"].Spawn.Position)
			plr.Character.Humanoid.MaxHealth = 179769313486231570814527423731704356798070567525844996598917476803157260780028538760589558632766878171540458953514382464234321326889464182768467546703537516986049910576551282076245490090389328944075868508455133942304583236903222948165808559332123348274797826204144723168738177180919299881250404026184124858368
			plr.Character.Humanoid.Health = plr.Character.Humanoid.MaxHealth
		end
	end)

Maybe the if statement isn’t registering true? Remove it temporarily and see if it works. Also, where is the script located?

#7

That code is located in the PlayerAdded event and table.find() won’t return true, but it’ll return a number, which it does. When I removed the if statement, it still didn’t work

#8

I meant the location of the script object itself. What is its parent? If you place print at the start of the script, does it appear in the output?

#9

ServerScriptStorage is where the script is and it does output something when I do print()
