How to detect part touch only on client?

edit: i figured it out

I have about 100 small blocks, and whenever one of them gets touched by a player I want it to disappear, but ONLY on that player’s client.

I also want all 100 blocks to be reset at the same time later, so how can I do that?

I found it out by putting local script inside of starter character scripts, and put this thanks to some help from Vioo:

local character = script.Parent

for _, v in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do
	if v:IsA("BasePart") then
		v.Touched:Connect(function(part)
			if part.Name == "FallingPart" then
				print("touched spleef")
			end
		end)
	end
end

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local debounce = false

for _, part in ipairs(character:GetChildren()) do
	if part:IsA("BasePart") then
		part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if debounce then
				return
			end
			if hit.Parent.Name == player.Name then --ignore if character parts are touching eachother
				return
			end
			debounce = true
			print(player.Name.." touched "..hit.Name.."!")
			task.wait(2) --cooldown
			debounce = false
		end)
	end
end

I just created this exact same script for someone else in a different thread, as you mentioned it needs to go inside the StarterCharacterScripts folder.
