Kill player on item clicked

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a butterfly model that i made. I set it up so that when you click it it plays and animation and dissapears. it is suppose to kill the player aswell. but i can not seem to get the players model. to kill.

The mouseclick function returns the players folder and i don’t know how to go about using that info to get the players model.

local clicked = false

local cursor = script.Parent.Part.ClickDetector


fly:Play()
fly.Looped = true


cursor.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr)
	
	if clicked == false then
		clicked = true
		flip:Play()
		plr.Curse.Value = true
		--KillPlayer:FireClient(plr) (Doesn't work not the player model)
		flip.Looped = false
		flip.Stopped:Wait(3)
		Model:Destroy()
	end
	
	
end)

Use plr.Character for getting player’s character.

Ok i believe that works. but my character is not dying. im not sure what going on but i don’t get any errors, the code runs through it just doesn’t kill my character. heres the script for the killPlayer event. It accounts for Player.Character.

it just wont kill the player.

local handler = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.KillPlayer

handler.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid")
	
	humanoid:TakeDamage(99999)
	
	if humanoid.Health > 0 then
		humanoid.Health = 0
	end
end)

what does the kill part look like

#5

Its used throughout the game for other parts and it works just fine.

local handler = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.KillPlayer

handler.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid")
	
	humanoid:TakeDamage(99999)
	
	if humanoid.Health > 0 then
		humanoid.Health = 0
	end
end)
#6

Try humanoid.Health = 0 instead of humanoid:TakeDamage()

#7

you could just make that into a function in the main script and just change the damage part to humanoid.Health = 0

also TakeDamage will not damage if the player has a force field on

#8

ClickDetectors are registered on the server, not the client. In a server script:

local function main(plyr : Player)

    -- Find the player's humanoid
    local hum : Humanoid = plyr:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")

    -- Damage the player
    hum:TakeDamage(int)
end

model.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(main)

Moved it to server scripts. wrote this new code. Worked once and proceeded not to work at all. i think its some kind of glitch.

local KillPlayer = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvents.KillPlayer
local Butterflys = game.Workspace.Butterflys
local clicked = false
local value = 150

for _, BFlys in pairs(Butterflys:GetChildren()) do
	local cursor = BFlys.Part.ClickDetector
	local flip = BFlys.PlayAnimation.Flip
	local Flyanimation = BFlys.PlayAnimation.Flying
	local FlipAnimation = BFlys.PlayAnimation.Flip
	local humanoid = BFlys.Humanoid
	local fly = humanoid:LoadAnimation(Flyanimation)
	local flip = humanoid:LoadAnimation(FlipAnimation)
	cursor.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr)
		local player = plr.Character
		if BFlys.Name == "GoldButterfly" then
			local sparkles = BFlys["Shiny sparkle"]
			
			if clicked == false then
				clicked = true
				flip:Play()
				plr.Currency.Value = plr.Currency.Value + value
				sparkles:Play()
				flip.Looped = false
				flip.Stopped:Wait(3)
				BFlys:Destroy()
				clicked = false
			end
		end	
		if BFlys.Name == "BlackButterfly" then
			
			if clicked == false then
				clicked = true
				flip:Play()
				plr.Curse.Value = true
				wait()
				player.Humanoid:TakeDamage(99999)
				flip.Looped = false
				flip.Stopped:Wait(3)
				BFlys:Destroy()
				clicked = false
			end
		end	
	end)
end

Never mind. Tried out all the kill commands and Player.Humanoid.Health = 0 works now.
