#1

I am trying to make one kill effect for my gun. The effect works but I only want to clone the effects into the character only when the humanoid dies. This clone if the humanoid is dead or alive.

local effect1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.washbasin
local effect2 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Plate
local effect3 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Plate2 

local debounce = false


local bullet = script.Parent

local function player_check(otherPart)
	local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid and humanoid.Parent.Name ~= bullet.Attacker.Value then	
		if humanoid.Died then
		debounce = true
		local character = humanoid.Parent
		local humanoidRoot = character.HumanoidRootPart
		
		local effectClone1 = effect1:Clone()
		effectClone1.Parent = character
		effectClone1.Position = humanoidRoot.Position
		
		local effectClone2 = effect2:Clone()
		effectClone2.Parent = character
		effectClone2.Position = humanoidRoot.Position
		
		local effectClone3 = effect3:Clone()
		effectClone3.Parent = character
		effectClone3.Position = humanoidRoot.Position
		print("test")
	end
	debounce = false
	end
end


bullet.Touched:Connect(player_check)

If you know the issue please reply to this post :frowning:

humanoid.Died is an event not a bool property.
You can change it to if humanoid.Health <= 0 then .
Don’t know if this will work 100% cause of the way this is being handled (if you have a separate damage script it would not be in sync that is).

#3

I tried before that but doesnt work.

#4

If you already have a damage script for the bullet then put the effects in there. A lot easier to handle.

#5

but the problem is with the died function.

#6

Try this if player.character.humanoid.Died then ???

#7

make a function:
humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
– do whatever you want

#8

You can yield the block by using the method in the event called :Wait() basically it would pause the current part of the thread until the event fires

Humanoid.Died:Wait()

However I suggest that you Connect the event to a method then have it do what you want

Humanoid.Died:Connect(function() 
   -- Do what you want here
end) 

-- Or 

local function OnDied() 
   -- Do what you want here
end 

Humanoid.Died:Connect(OnDied) 

-- Both of these ways are the same

Hope this helped :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Try using the following code below:

-- Services
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

-- Remote Events
local effect1 = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("washbasin")
local effect2 = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Plate")
local effect3 = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Plate2")

local bullet = script.Parent
local debounce = false

function OnDeath(character, humanoid, humRootPart)
	humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
		if not character.Name == bullet.Attacker.Value then
			debounce = true

			local effectClone1 = effect1:Clone()
			effectClone1.Parent = character
			effectClone1.Position = humRootPart.Position
			
			local effectClone2 = effect2:Clone()
			effectClone2.Parent = character
			effectClone2.Position = humRootPart.Position
		
			local effectClone3 = effect3:Clone()
			effectClone3.Parent = character
			effectClone3.Position = humRootPart.Position
			print("tested")
		end
		wait()
		debounce = false
	end)
end

bullet.Touched:Connect(function(hitPart)
	if not hitPart.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") then
		return
	end
	
	local character = hitPart.Parent
	local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	local humRootPart = character.HumanoidRootPart
	
	OnDeath(character, humanoid, humRootPart)
end)
#10

Check if the player’s health is equal to 0 instead.

#11

You can use Humanoid | Roblox Creator Documentation and check if the HumanoidStateType | Roblox Creator Documentation is dead

#12

Try this

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local Effects = {
	RS:WaitForChild("washbasin"),
	RS:WaitForChild("Plate"),
	RS:WaitForChild("Plate2") 
}

local debounce = false

local bullet = script.Parent

local function player_check(otherPart)
	if not otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then return end
	
	local humanoid = otherPart.Parent.Humanoid
	local character = humanoid.Parent
	local humanoidRoot = character.HumanoidRootPart
	
	if humanoid.Parent.Name ~= bullet.Attacker.Value then	
		if humanoid.Health <= 0 then
			debounce = true

			for i = 1, #Effects do
				local EffClone = Effects[i]:Clone()		
				EffClone.Parent = character
				EffClone.Position = humanoidRoot.Position	
				
				print(Effects[i].Name)
			end
			
		end
		debounce = false
	end
end


bullet.Touched:Connect(player_check)
#13

“Workspace.Bullet.KillEffect:28: Ambiguous syntax: this looks like an argument list for a function call, but could also be a start of new statement”

Nvm fixed you tried to print and you said (“tested”) without print()

#14

This doesnt work nothing clone.

#15

have you tried this 30

#16

yes I tried everything but doesnt work :frowning:

#17 
local bullet = script.Parent

local effect1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.washbasin
local effect2 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Plate
local effect3 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Plate2 

local debounce = false



bullet.Touched:Connect(function(otherHumanoid)
	if otherHumanoid.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and otherHumanoid.Parent.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then	
		debounce = true	
		local character = otherHumanoid.Parent
		local humanoid = character.Humanoid
		local humanoidRoot = character.HumanoidRootPart

		humanoid.Died:Connect(function()

			local effectClone1 = effect1:Clone()
			effectClone1.Parent = character
			effectClone1.Position = humanoidRoot.Position

			local effectClone2 = effect2:Clone()
			effectClone2.Parent = character
			effectClone2.Position = humanoidRoot.Position

			local effectClone3 = effect3:Clone()
			effectClone3.Parent = character
			effectClone3.Position = humanoidRoot.Position
			print("test")
		end)
	end
	wait()
	debounce = false
end)

I have 2 scripts inside the bullet maybe that can be my issue

Its like… nothing happen this doesnt clone.

#18

I think the issue is with the bullet cant get the humanoid dead… bc this script can clone the effects every time the bullet hits

#19

can you post your shooting script

#20

Shoothing event or the damage script?

damage script:

local bullet = script.Parent

local function player_check(otherPart)
	local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if humanoid and humanoid.Parent.Name ~= bullet.Attacker.Value then
		if otherPart.Name == "Head" then
			humanoid:TakeDamage(100)
			bullet:Destroy()
		else
			humanoid:TakeDamage(50)
			bullet:Destroy()
		end
	end
end
	

bullet.Touched:Connect(player_check)


game.Debris:AddItem(bullet, 10)
