How to make a badge which is given from killing a humanoid/NPC with a rocket launcher?

#1

First of all im very bad at scripting.
So my issue is that I have a script which can give a badge when an npc is killed but for some reason it only works with a sword but not a rocket laucher. Any ideas how I could do it?

local badge = 0000000  -- the badge id
 local npc = script.Parent

while npc ~= nil do 

if npc.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then 

	local player = npc.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator") 

	if npc ~= nil then 

		if player and player:IsA("ObjectValue") and player.Value then

			local userId = player.Value.UserId
			game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(userId, badge)

		end		

	end 

end 

 wait(1)
end

It’s hard to detect who killed someone with explosions.

And I’d need more of your script to help you.

But thats the whole script. Also oops I formatted it a little wrong, now its the whole thing.

-- When a new character is made... Attach this code to its creation script.

-- Note, in the rocket script, detect when the rocket explodes, 
-- and instead of having the explosion instance kill the target player, just kill them
-- if they're in a certain radius of the explosion position. With that manual kill, then you can assign
-- a player_killer attribute and death_reason that way.

new_character.Humanoid.Died:Once(function()
    local death_reason = new_character.Humanoid:GetAttribute("death_reason")
    local player_killer = new_character.Humanoid:GetAttribute("player_killer")

	if not npc then 
        return
    end
    -- No need to check if "player" is an object value if your game is designed well.
	if death_reason == "rocket" then
		local userId = game:GetService("Players")[player_killer].UserId
		game:GetService("BadgeService"):AwardBadge(userId, badge)
	end		
end)

just add a value to a projectile containing the player’s UserId…

What’s the script inside the projectile or the projectile launcher?
