Help with creating a script that when a player goes a certain distance to the part, the player gets sent backwards

The force can be anything, 0,0,0 is the place you want to keep the player from

#22

Oh, so I write a number as the force?

#23

Pretty sure the force is a Vector3, it would be the directional vector of the force IIRC.

Do I do something like this?

Or should I put Vector3 (100, 100, 100)?

--server script

local runservice = game:GetService('RunService')
local players = game:GetService('Players')

local part = --were
local max_magnitude = 20 -- maximum magnitude

function getNearPlrs(mag)
  local list = {}
  for index, player in next, players:GetPlayers() do
    local character = player.Character
    if character then
      local root = character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
      local distance = (root.Position - part.Position)
      if distance < mag then
        table.insert(list, #list+1, character)
      end
    end
    runservice.Heartbeat:Wait() -- alot players
  end
  return list
end

runservice.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
  local chars = getNearPlrs()
  for _, character in next, chars do
    local root = character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
    local look = root.CFrame.LookVector
    root.Position -= look -- if im not wrong, this makes it move backwards
  end
end)

Can you tell me where to put this script?

#28

workspace or serverscript or in the part, just put the part location and you’re done

I tested the script, but it seems like nothing is happening; I only put the script in the ServerScriptService.

#30

yes, put the part location

#31

So do I put the part location inside the script?

#32

the “part” variable

Sorry if I am asking too many questions; I’m not familiar with scripts.

Here is a video of it:
