what is the error that you recieve?

Also you said the player touches the gas. However in the script it says that anything can touch the gas, so I would script it so only the player can touch the gas then it prints out the print statement.

#3

Please make sure that the object exists in the workspace by using FindFirstChild() and ensure that the name of the object is valid. I hope this would assist you resolve the problem.

Maybe try adding a warning to let you know if gas was found:

local gas = workspace.giole:FindFirstChild(“gas”)

if gas then
	gas.Touched:Connect(function()
		print("localscript hated you :DDDDDD”)
	end)
else
	warn(“Did not find gas.”)
end

There is already here, Toxich. I check anything

#7

printed as warning. :frowning: i tried anything

#8

There is no error yet. i put if gas then end
i think localscript need glass to see again

#9

local giole = workspace:WatiForChild(“giole”)
local gas = giole:WatiForChild(“gas”)

#10

where’s the local script located

#11

Why would you need the if gas then ? You can do :WaitForChild()

what is difference waitforchild between FindFirstChild()

#13

WaitForChild() waits for the child to be created or loaded. If it doesn’t exist, then the script waits until the child exist.

FindFirstChild() will attempt to find a child, if it doesn’t find the child, it will return nil.
