Sometimes you may want to hide the characters of blocked players from the player that blocked them. HideBlockedPlayers is a client-side script that sets the local transparency modifier of a player’s blocked players’ characters to 1 and hides their name and health.
Place the script inside StarterPlayer > StarterPlayerScripts.
Get it here:
A potential issue is the fifty blocked players limit. Players will be required to mass unblock people on their blocked users list every now and then. They can do so from their privacy settings at the bottom of the page.
This script does not interact with the Roblox chat system, but players are automatically muted on your end when you block them anyway (which includes disabling their bubble chat).
This script shouldn’t affect tools, as all it does is set the LocalTransparencyModifier of any BaseParts that are descendants of the character. However, if a tool relies on a lack of change in this regard then yes, the tool would be affected.
This script does not prevent collision with blocked players currently. I am considering adding an option that allows you to change this.
I’d imagine any tool that involves clicking on an object might have issues with the invisible player interfering with the selection (unless they are added to the Mouse Target Filter also)
To fix a potential bug, I have updated the script so that it does not use CollectionService, as previously the Ignored tag given to ignored players on the client would be overridden every time a new tag is added to a player on the server.
