Kill block not working 100% of the time

I want to make a kill block for an obby

For the kill block I have if you touch it quickly it will not kill you and you can continue the obby without dying and going back to the beginning of the stage

I tried making it so the script will put the player’s health at -500 instead of 0 but that still did not work

Have a debounce in the touch event.

local Debounce = false -- debounce for touch event
local Damage = 25 -- how much damage the humanoid will take
local WaitInbetweenDamge = 1 --how many seconds between each damage

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part) -- reference the part that is touched
	local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part)
	if Player then -- if the part is a player's character then
		if Debounce == false then
			Debounce = true
			part.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(Damage)
			wait(WaitInbetweenDamge)
			Debounce = false
		end
		
	end
end)

I found this to be a problem a while ago and I found a great solution

  1. you want the part to not be too small height wise
  2. you want the CanCollide to be false
  3. add a debounce like @Infinite_Visions said
#4

basically you would fall into the part killing you very easily compared to you being able to walk on it

#5

But I don’t think that a debounce can be the solution, @HowToRobloxYT_TV can you show us your code?

it should look like this:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
        hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = 0
    end
end)

exactly a debounce will only stop you from running code multiple times
not really needed

#7

Yes this is what i was meaning it could be util if he needs to don’t instant kill the player

#9

How this code would kill the player? It is just a product purchase script

#10

@NinjaFurfante07 That was the wrong screenshot

#11

did you look at my solution yet?

#12

I working on putting that stuff in rn

#13

Why do you need CanCollide false?

#14

@NinjaFurfante07 here is the right screenshot

I replied to myself earlier you can check that out

trust me CanCollide set to false helps a lot

#16

btw make “connect” into “Connect”

#17

The c could be the problem? image, try Connect and not connect, do you get any errors in the output?

#18

its not the problem, but it should be changed since connect is deprecated

#19

ok the kill block I was using was a free model and I cant catch errors like that because I dont know how to script and look up a tutorial for every thing

#20

Just add a part and put a script inside with this code:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
        hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health = 0
    end
end)
#21

its good to look at free models and see how they work
not that big of a deal
