My gun can not shoot players with morphs on

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello, I have been working on morphs and a gun system for the last week.
When I tested the guns with a player that had a morph on, the gun did no damage at all.

This is how the morph works when put on the player.

Then this is the gun script for damaging the player.

local function hit(plr, part)
–//Initialize || Checks
if not canShoot() then return end
if not part then return end

--//Get humanoid root part
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local rootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

if rootPart then
	--//Check distance
	if (rootPart.CFrame.p - part.CFrame.p).magnitude <= range.Value then --//Check range
		--//Get humanoid
		local humanoid
		
		--//Check if part was a hat/acessory
		if part.Name == "Handle" then
			humanoid = part.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		else
			humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		end
		
		
		if humanoid and humanoid.Health > 0 then --//Do nothing if humanoid is dead
			local newDamage = damage.Value
			
			--//Check hit
			if part.Name == "Head" then
				newDamage = newDamage * headMultiplier.Value
				
				--//Headshot related handling
				local soundCopy = headshotSound:Clone()
				soundCopy.Parent = part
				soundCopy:Play()
			end
			
			--//Apply damage
			humanoid:TakeDamage(newDamage)
		end
	end
end

end

Also side note, there is a headshot bonus, and it did not work either.

The parts being hit are within a model therefore you’re incorrectly defining the character and humanoid.

Instead, try:

local humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if not humanoid then
	humanoid = part.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
end
if humanoid then
	-- Do your stuff
end

I’m not sure if this is correct but it looks like in the morph the body parts are in a model. In your script part.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”) which would check if the humanoid was inside of the model instead the character model.

Solution
do part.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)

edit just saw @ForeverHD has already said this

I put it like this, still does not work.

local function hit(plr, part)
–//Initialize || Checks
if not canShoot() then return end
if not part then return end

--//Get humanoid root part
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local rootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

if rootPart then
	--//Check distance
	if (rootPart.CFrame.p - part.CFrame.p).magnitude <= range.Value then --//Check range
		--//Get humanoid
		local humanoid = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		
		--//Check if part was a hat/acessory
		if not humanoid then
humanoid = part.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

end
if humanoid then

		if humanoid and humanoid.Health > 0 then --//Do nothing if humanoid is dead
			local newDamage = damage.Value
			
			--//Check hit
			if part.Name == "Head" then
				newDamage = newDamage * headMultiplier.Value
				
				--//Headshot related handling
				local soundCopy = headshotSound:Clone()
				soundCopy.Parent = part
				soundCopy:Play()
			end
			
			--//Apply damage
			humanoid:TakeDamage(newDamage)
		end
	end
end
end
end

How does your gun work?
Does it use raycasts?

Also, since your morphs insert models inside the player, try using:

local human = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or hit.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

if human then
 --Do something here.
end
