How would I go about making my hiding system?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

yeah sorry but that souds helpful

#22

Are you using a ProximityPrompt and script to open close the door?

#23

it’s a clickdetector inside the door

#24

instead of relying on animations ending, etc, you should make it so the “Hiding” value sets to true when you try to hide in a locker, after, 0.5 seconds, which would be what the door animation takes

that’s a simple solution, but there are more workarounds, using raycasts for example, if the attacker already noticed you before you hide (by raycasts), then the attacker should kill you

#25

if there is no animation, because i still didn’t understand the final goal, then instead of using .touched I recommend region3, because .touched and touchended events are far from reliable

#26

Yeah right now i’m trying to use touch events but I don’t know what region3 is

#27

or an even better thing is to cast a ray inside the locker to check if there’s a player inside,
local playerIsInside (you’d get this by raycasting and checking if it hit the player)
if playerIsInside AND doorIsLocked then hiding = true end

#28

Can I see the ClickDetector script, so I can make this work with what you have.
90% there …

local Info = TweenInfo.new(0.2, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)
local event = Instance.new("BindableEvent")
local Door = script.Parent.Door
local OrigPos = Door.Center.CFrame
local TGP = script.Parent.ToGoPos.CFrame
local DoorMain = Door.MainDoor
local TweenedCompleted = "N/A"
local DoorStatus = "Closed"
local Debounce = false
local DoorClosed = script.Parent.DoorClosed

local function TweenModel(Model, CFrame)
    local CFrameValue = Instance.new("CFrameValue")
    CFrameValue.Value = Model:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()

    CFrameValue:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):connect(function()
        Model:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrameValue.Value)
    end)

    local Tween = TweenService:Create(CFrameValue, Info, {Value = CFrame})
    Tween:Play()

    Tween.Completed:connect(function()
        CFrameValue:Destroy()
		TweenedCompleted = "Yes"
    end)
	while TweenedCompleted == "N/A" do
		wait(0.1)
	end
	TweenedCompleted = "N/A"
end

script.Parent.Door.MainDoor.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	if DoorStatus == "Closed" and Debounce == false then
		Debounce = true
		DoorMain.Close:Play()
		TweenModel(script.Parent.Door, TGP)
		DoorStatus = "Opened"
		DoorClosed.Value = true
		Debounce = false
	elseif DoorStatus == "Opened" and Debounce == false then
		Debounce = true
		DoorMain.Open:Play()
		TweenModel(script.Parent.Door, OrigPos)
		DoorStatus = "Closed"
		DoorClosed.Value = false
		Debounce = false
	end
	end)

Wow, you actually opened the door and not just went to a different open model.
Glad I asked!

I pretty much got it but I’m having problems with your door as I don’t have all that.
Is that a model I can get …

#31

oh yeah I see it’s ok. Yeah i am not 100% responsible for this I had an earlier version that just snapped to a different open variation and that wasn’t up to my standards or something so I just tried to improv off of a door script. but yea any input you’ve had is helpful

#32

I need that locker to work with … actually to just finish, I got the logic working.

#33

here i’ve published the model Locker - Roblox

#34

Ok I got it … give me a few to put this all together

This is script is both in HidePart and OutsideHitBox, other than the 1st line …
outside = local locker = 0, inside = local locker = 1
locker = 1 is locker #1 and so on.

local locker = 1
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
	if Player == nil then return end
	Player.Character:SetAttribute("Locker", locker)		
end)

Changes to your script: (in the Toggle event part)

--//Toggle event//--
script.Parent.Door.MainDoor.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(press)
	if DoorStatus == "Closed" and Debounce == false then Debounce = true
		DoorMain.Close:Play()
		TweenModel(script.Parent.Door, TGP)
		DoorStatus = "Opened"
		DoorClosed.Value = true
		
		local Player = press.Character 
		if Player:GetAttribute("Locker") > 0 then 
			print("hidden")
		end
		
		Debounce = false
	elseif DoorStatus == "Opened" and Debounce == false then
		Debounce = true
		DoorMain.Open:Play()
		TweenModel(script.Parent.Door, OrigPos)
		DoorStatus = "Closed"
		DoorClosed.Value = false
		Debounce = false
	end
end)

*Edit and add this under: local DoorClosed = script.Parent.DoorClosed
on the upper part of that script.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local Player = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(tostring(player))
	Player:SetAttribute("Locker", 0)
end)

Now that that is all done … you could search through the players with one of them one script loops.
looking for if Player:GetAttribute(“Locker”) > 0 … the number will be what locker they are in … if they are not in a locker it will yield 0

This was super fun …thanks for tonight’s project!

Interesting. I will try this. Is the first part just one script inside the hide and exit parts? And the 2nd I only need to change the toggle event section? And you’re welcome thank you for helping me out with this

#36

yep … but in the end it only prints: hidden and sets the attribute
read that last part …

Also that door is really hard to open up from the inside when you’re closed in.
AND make sure to set DoorClosed to true (maybe that don’t matter)
Ya, that matters. :rofl: it will error if not (that ones on you)

#37

It seems to error on me regardless

#38

(function(press) <— you see that part
and DoorClosed = true … as in go set DoorClosed to true with a checkmark

#39

I can open and close it when inside when i set it to true(hiding still isn’t ever true) but when outside if I close it it stays closed and gives me this error anyway even if doorclosed is true in studio

oh yeah I dont think theres anything to set it there

#40

do you have the local locker = 1 and locker = 0 on the right hit boxes
