How would I make part, that if you touch your head comes off

kyleskate226 · November 12, 2020, 9:05pm

Hello! I am currently trying to make a part, that if you touch your head comes off, and I’m going to put that part on a axe. I’m not the best at scripting though, I’m still trying to learn. I think I have an idea, But I don’t know. Here is what I have:

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Object)
if Object.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) then
(I don’t know how to find the head yet.)

end)
end

That’s as far as I got. If you could help me, that would be great.

Once you get Object.Parent (The character), simply add this line of code:

Object.Parent:FindFirstChild("Head"):Destroy()

After the if statement, you have the character, which contains a head. Destroying that head will maek the head pop off and kill you. However, it might not give you the animation you desire.

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Object)
if Object.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Head”):Destroy()

end)
end

Almost! Keep the code you have, just put it in the if statement.

Part.Touched:Connect(function(Object)
    if Object.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) then
          local character = Object.Parent
          local head = character:FindFirstChild("Head")
          head:Destroy()
    end)
end

Yes, this should be a server script.

If you destroy the head, the character will die.

I’m assuming that’s OP’s goal.

Yes, I want the player to die. I’m trying to make a theatre but I’m gonna have a weapon stash in it.

CheekySquid · November 12, 2020, 9:16pm

Got it, the code given should work then!

You need to declare the value of the part. So I would do

local Part = game.Workspace.Part

The value after game.Workspace should be the name of the part

I thought about that, I really did, but oh well.

kyleskate226 · November 12, 2020, 9:26pm

Wait, how do I make only the head come off? Would I weld them together?

When a player dies, their parts fall like that, I would look into a ragdoll model script or research how to make one yourself.

kyleskate226 · November 12, 2020, 9:34pm

Do you know any good ones, if so can you tell me?

This should work, it’s from my game, Noir.

local character = script.Parent
character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").BreakJointsOnDeath = false

local died
died = character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
	local d = character:GetDescendants()
	for i=1,#d do
		local desc = d[i]
		if desc:IsA("Motor6D") then
			local socket = Instance.new("BallSocketConstraint")
			local part0 = desc.Part0
			local joint_name = desc.Name
			local attachment0 = desc.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or desc.Parent:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			local attachment1 = part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."Attachment") or part0:FindFirstChild(joint_name.."RigAttachment")
			if attachment0 and attachment1 then
				socket.Attachment0, socket.Attachment1 = attachment0, attachment1
				socket.Parent = desc.Parent
				desc:Destroy()
			end	
		elseif desc:IsA("Script") or desc:IsA("LocalScript") then
			desc:Destroy()
		end
	end
end)

Make it a serverscript inside startercharacterscripts.
