How to make door open for one player? (Client Sided)

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello, I am making a simple keycard door and I would like it to only open for the person that opens it. I tried doing this by putting a local script inside of StarterPlayerScripts, here is the code:

local function onTouch(hit)
	if hit.Parent.Name == "Visa" then
		game.Workspace.BorderBlock.CanCollide = false
		wait(2)
		game.Workspace.BorderBlock.CanCollide = true
	end
end
game.Workspace.BorderBlock.Touched:Connect(onTouch)

It works with this but it opens for all players.

Does anyone know how to help? Thank you for reading!

Because all clients are checking if the door has touched a “Visa”

You need to specify the Player that touches it.

local Player = game.Players.Localplayer
local function onTouch(hit)
	if hit.Parent.Name == "Visa" and hit.Parent.Parent.Name = Player.Name then
		game.Workspace.BorderBlock.CanCollide = false
		wait(2)
		game.Workspace.BorderBlock.CanCollide = true
	end
end
game.Workspace.BorderBlock.Touched:Connect(onTouch)

Take note i did this fast and untested.
And im guessing Hit.Parent is a tool.

You can use RemoteEvent:FireClient()

I don’t think he’s looking to check it serverside.
Even tho “CanCollide” is not really requested to be checked serverside as it can be edited clientside.

Take note that script can be improved.

How so? (Filler text for limit)

A better way to detect the player/tool.
Mostly currently the script will check if the player Character follows the player name.

Take note that Character name and player name are not always the same!
