How to get the duration of a player's stay in the zone?

[IgromanEXE (katze)]

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

1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
   I want that when a player enters a special zone, then I can get his stay time in this zone.
   (To be more precise, I would like, for example, if a player stands in a certain zone for a certain amount of time, then he gets badge.)
2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
   I haven’t needed this before, so I can’t figure out how to implement it.
3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
   I tried to find a solution here, but it seems there are no cases similar to mine. So far I tried using Region3 and :GetPartsInPart(), but I couldn’t figure out how to use them for my purposes.

The main thing I need is a way to get the duration of a player’s stay in a certain zone at any time.
I will be very grateful if someone helps me with this.

You can shoot a ray cast from the character downwards, check if it hit the zone and do some debounce system

and for example you’ll have a variable detecting if the player is in the zone

local IN_ZONE = false
local IN_TIME = 0
-- do ur hacky stuff here
while true do -- this part is at the end of your code :^
   if IN_ZONE == true then
      task.wait(1)
       IN_TIME += 1
   end
end

Use the ZonePlus module which uses the SpatialQuery API: Introduction - ZonePlus
Simply connect the playerEntered and playerExitted events to a table of player times. When they enter, increment their time by 1. When they leave, don’t increment it.
