Hello, I will give you a brief summary of what I am trying to do. The following script is a tree felling system, in line 8 it should detect when the value of the ax is true in order to execute the following, but it does not and if I remove line eight, simply touch the tree with the ax begins to take life from the tree.

local health = 100
local bool = true
local ongoing = true
local respawn = math.random(8,20)

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('IsAAxe') and ongoing == true then
		if  hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Acción') == true then
			local status = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Type')
			if health > 0 then
				if status.Value == 'HachaDePiedra' then
					health = health - 5
				elseif status.Value == 'Uncommon' then
					health = health - 10
				elseif status.Value == 'Rare' then
					health = health - 15
				elseif status.Value == 'Epic' then
					health = health - 20
				end
			end
			print(health)
		elseif health <= 0 and bool == true then
			bool = false
			for i, x in pairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do
				x.Transparency = 1
				x.CanCollide = false
			end

			local wood = game.ReplicatedStorage.Materiales.Cargarmateria:Clone()
			wait(0.01)
			wood.Parent = workspace.SistemaDeTalado
			wood:MoveTo(script.Parent.Position)
			ongoing = false
			health = 100 -- [ Put the original health here ] --
			wait(respawn)
			for i, x in pairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do
				x.Transparency = 0
				x.CanCollide = true
			end
			bool = true
			ongoing = true
		end
	end
end)

Thats gonna error if there is no “Acción” in the “hit”

Better to do :

local Found  = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Acción')
if Found and Found.Value then

He already checked for something. i’m assuming if it has that in it, it will have Accion in it too.

Well if he is sure about the existence of Accion he can do it , as a viewer I don’t know how his structure of Axe exists.
