How do I make players slip off each-others heads?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I have a script which very poorly detects when a player touches another player’s head, and I was wondering if there was any way to make it so it only affects the player that touches your head.

Script (part is parented to the players head, and welded):

local Part = script.Parent.Parent

while task.wait(.1) do
	Part.Velocity = Part.CFrame.LookVector *-12
end

This current script also affects the players velocity, causing them to move weirdly. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

local Head = -- path to players head.
Head.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if hum and not hit:IsDescendentOf(Head.Parent) then
hum.RootPart.Velocity = hum.RootPart.CFrame.LookVector*12
end
end)

Thank you for replying, I will see if this works.

Edit: this happens

I am now using ZonePlus, but it is still very dodgy:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Modules = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Storage"):WaitForChild("Modules")
local ZonePlus = require(Modules:WaitForChild("Zone"))


local Part = script.Parent.Parent
local Zone = ZonePlus.new(Part)

Zone.itemEntered:Connect(function(Item)
	if Item.Name == "Left Leg" then
		print("Left Leg en")
		Part.Velocity = Part.CFrame.LookVector *-12
	elseif Item.Name == "Right Leg" then
		print("Right Leg en")
		Part.Velocity = Part.CFrame.LookVector *-12
	end
end)

Zone.itemExited:Connect(function(Item)
	if Item.Name == "Left Leg" then
		--Part.Velocity = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
	elseif Item.Name == "Right Leg" then
		--Part.Velocity = Vector3.new(0,0,0)
	end
end)

I apologies, your script works, I had another script in my character causing that issue, but I am wondering if there is any way to make the velocity go faster, so you slip off the players head, and there is no way to go forward without slipping.

#6

just replace the 12 with something higher

#7

Instead of using touched property maybe check the humanoid FloorMaterial instance and check if it name Head and under a model that has Humanoid? I’m on phone right now so I think that I can only give idea

#8

I literally tried math.huge, but it still felt the same.

#9

Try raising MaxSlopeAngle to 20 or something, that could help

Or you could set the velocity of any character that touches another head

#10

tried that, still doesnt give any results, can you give an example of how i can set the velocity so it works, u dont have to write me the rest of the script

#11

local bv = Instance.new(‘BodyVelocity’)
bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
bv.Velocity = HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * whatever
bv.Parent = whatever parent

You might want to use LinearVelocity instead though, as I recently heard that BodyVelocity is now deprecated. I haven’t coded in Roblox studio in a while, so I’m kind of behind lol

#12

detects when its being touched now, but doesnt make the player who touches the other player’s head slip, instead pushes both of them back:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")

local Touching = false
local Part = script.Parent.Parent
--local Zone = ZonePlus.new(Part)

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	local Humanoid = Hit.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if Humanoid and not Touching then
		Touching = true
		local HumanoidRootPart = Hit.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
		local BodyVelocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
		BodyVelocity.Name = "SlipVelocity"
		BodyVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
		BodyVelocity.Velocity = HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * -12
		BodyVelocity.Parent = HumanoidRootPart
	end
end)

Part.TouchEnded:Connect(function(Hit)
	local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent.Parent)
	if Player then
		for _, v in pairs(Player.Character:GetDescendants()) do
			if v:IsA("BodyVelocity") and v.Name == "SlipVelocity" then
				v:Destroy()
				Touching = false
			end
		end
	end
end)

and by slip i mean when you get on another players head, it moves you back, and its impossible to move forward on their head

What’s the part that you’re running .Touched on? I recommend running it on the legs

#14

use the Touched event of the head part and check if the touching object is a player. Then, you can use the FindFirstChild method to check if the touching object has a Humanoid child, indicating that it’s a player character. You can then get the player instance using the Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter method and apply any effects to that player only.
