How can I see if a player is Inside of zone using heartbeat service?

#2

Do you mean RunService.Heartbeat event?

You can’t do this solely with RunService, you have to use something like Region3 to work along.

Yes that is what I mean, forgot the RunService

#4 
local Part = Instance.new("Part")
Part.Anchored = true
Part.Transparency = 0.5
Part.Position = Vector3.new(0,6,0)
Part.Size = Vector3.new(12,12,12)
Part.CanCollide = false
Part.Parent = workspace

game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function()
	local Region = Region3.new(Vector3.new(-Part.Size.X/2,Part.Size.Y/Part.Position.Y,-Part.Size.Z/2),Vector3.new(Part.Size.X/2,Part.Size.Y,Part.Size.Z/2))
	
	local Parts = workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(Region, Part)
	for i,v in pairs(Parts) do
		if v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
			v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):TakeDamage(0.01)
		end
	end
end)

here is a way you can detect if a player is in a region3 when using Heartbeat, its probably not the best way but it does work if you want to test this put a script in workspace and then paste this

I suggest using ZonePlus which is an excellent resource.

local Zone = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Zone)
local container = workspace.AModelOfPartsRepresentingTheZone -- The Part which represents the zone.
local zone = Zone.new(container)

zone.playerEntered:Connect(function(player)
    print(`Player {player.Name} entered the zone`)
end)

zone.playerExited:Connect(function(player)
    print(`Player {player.Name} exited the zone`)
end)
