How to destroy() local parts?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

A local script clones a model that has parts in it and parent it in workspace and a ball will fall. How do I make the parts that touched the ball destroy? I tried adding local script to the parts that destroys the part when the ball touched it , but it didn’t work. I also tried adding a local script to the ball that destroy parts when it touched the ball, but it also didn’t work. I’m making it locally cause when I tried making it server side, its making my device lag. the parts is 3x3 and stacked like a Lego.

Local scripts don’t work in the workspace try moving the script to another parent, for example the PlayerScripts.

#3

maybe this script may work. (note please: i am not good at scripting, so it may not work).

local Ball = script.parent.ball

ball.parent.part.Touched:Connect(function()
part:Destroy()
end)

(it must be a script, since LocalScripts doesn’t works in Workspace).

if this is not working, i tried my best.

Well, he’s asking for a local script, not a server script.

#5

yea, but local scripts doesn’t work in workspace?

#6

He can parent the script to the playerscripts for example or character scripts. Since the local scripts will work in the character.

#7

oh, sorry, not being good at scripting… still learning.

#8

What’s the script you have so far which was causing latency issues?

#9

I have local script in starterplayerscript and playergui

#10

Could you share your script with us?

I’m so sorry for taking your time but I accidently fixed it. Here’s the script

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part)
if part.Name == “DONT” or part.Name == “Baseplate” then
return
else
wait(2)
part:Destroy()
end
end)

I added a local script in the ball with that line of code and it worked. Im sorry again for taking your time
