Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I need help when a player presses a button I want to get his character and clone him to make a statue of him (if possible with a inactive animation)

Some example:

I also asked for help but they didn’t work. I tried everything, please help me.

Try using a HumanoidDescription for this.

local Players = game:GetService('Players')

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) -- get the player who touched the part
if not player then return end -- if the player doesnt exist

local humanoidDesc = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(player.UserId) -- get the player's humanoid desc
statue.Humanoid:ApplyDescription(humanoidDesc) -- apply the humanoid description
end)

Or you can just clone the player’s character and set the primary part cframe.

--Just clone the player and move him to the statue by doing this.

local Part = --location
Part.Touched:Connect(function(plr)
   if plr then
       local char= plr.Character
       local newStatue = char:Clone()
newStatue.Parent = --location here.CFrame * CFrame.new(0, 3, 0)
 end

end)

Thanks, I will make sure to try that.

So 1 thing you can try, is using a Touched Event which would handle physics based part interaction with each other, calling GetPlayerFromCharacter() checking if the part touched was a parent of the Character’s Model, then clone it that way:

local Button = script.Parent
local DB = false --Not sure if you want to account for the button being pressed once after a certain interval

Button.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
    local PlayerCheck = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)

    if PlayerCheck and not DB then
        DB = true
        local Character = Hit.Parent

        Character.Archivable = true --By default, this is set as false so we need to set this as true before cloning it

        local CharClone = Character:Clone()
        CharClone.Parent = workspace
        CharClone:MakeJoints()
        CharClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(Button.Position + Vector3.new(0, 10, 0)))
    end
end)

@Legend_boysYTs There are a couple of issues wrong with your script, I’ll just state them:

  • The Touched event returns back the BasePart, not the plr so you have to refer to the BasePart’s Parent

  • By default, the Character’s Archivable property is set by false which will prevent any cloning from occurring

  • You don’t set the Parent to a CFrame value, set it to the workspace instead

It’s saying “players cannot be cloned”

“never judge a copper by the dust”

have you tried @flkfv’s code yet?

#9

What do you mean “never judge a copper by the dust”?

Yes I’m trying right now it because I didn’t understand really much about humanoid description.

#10

@flkfv’s code didn’t work too as well.

#11

Here this model will do exactly what you described. For the idle animation you need to Anchor the HomanoidRootPart and play any idle animation.

#12 
local module = {}
module.__index = module


function module.GetCharacterFromTouch(ClickDetector)
    local Char
    ClickDetector.Clicked:Wait(function(z) hit = z.Character end))
    Char.Archivable = false
    local Character = Char:Clone()
    Character.Animate:Destroy()
    return Character
end

return Module

that script is just straight forward yoinking the Character
but u can just get the Character HumanoidDescription

#13

It is not touched event, it’s a click event

#14

Give me a secound then to fix the code

#15

Here is the map with the button presser thing if you want an example:
