How do I check if the players health went down?

[SR02justin]

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. What do you want to achieve? A simple script that detects if the player health down.

2. What is the issue? It doesn’t check if the player health goes down.

3. What solutions have you tried so far? Idk how to check if players health went down. I don’t think there is a solution.

Can someone tell me how to check if the player health went down?

But does this run on the server or client?

[dibblydubblydoo (poo)]

it runs in a localscript as localplayer can only be accessed through localscript.

@TheCarbyneUniverse

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local oldHealth = hum.Health

hum.HealthChanged:Connect(function(newHealth)

    if newHealth < oldHealth then

        --run code

    end

end)

How Do I make the healing script wait 5 secounds after the player takes damage?

You do the same thing by creating a script like this if you want it server sided:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
        character.Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(newHealth)
            -- the code
        end)
    end)
end)

do a wait and add in a while true loop and make the health go up.

you can also make the healing stop using an if statement.

HealthChanged is used for localscripts, not serverscripts.

I think you could get the humanoid’s health, and then use the .changed event
