Need help with "Mutator" and "Disinfector"

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey Devforum! I have been wondering this for about four years now, and still have no clue how to even start. I’m not a super scripter like some of you are :wink:, and commonly use tutorials to figure out how to create stuff. Anyway, on to my questions.

  1. I need to create a mutator
Further Information

If you’ve ever played an Innovation Inc. game on Roblox before, you’ll already know what I’m talking about. For those that do not, this machine can do different things to players with certain buttons. Different buttons I’m planning on adding:

  • Speed
  • Jump height
  • Zombify

The latter is the one I believe I’ll have to most trouble with. This “Zombify” mode for the players is common throughout all Innovation games, and I feel I need to add it due to the mass amount of dislikes the game has been getting due to this. The zombie is able to go around and touch other players to infect them. However, there are security members with disinfectors that can well, disinfect them.

  1. I need the disinfectors
Further Information

These disinfectors are futuristic guns that shoot lasers at the zombies (above) to disinfect them. It takes more than one shot, and I can modify the script for the different types of guns. The “disinfectors” also do not damage healthy (Non-zombie) players.

For anyone able to assist with this, thank you very much! Like I said above, I’ve needed help with this for a long time, and desperately need to add this to my game. The best way to contact me off of the DevForum is by discord @Bloximus#3177.

Thanks!
(Also not sure if this is in the right topic, if not, please let me know!)

If you’ve made an attempt to accomplish this, please provide us with the script. This is not a request site

I attempted about 2 years ago, I have no idea how to do it and no remains of the script. Like I said, I have no idea where else to see about this. Do you have any suggestions?

Speed and jumpheight are relatively simple to implement, as they are properties in each Roblox character. As for zombification, I’m not too sure myself. There’s probably an open-source module/tutorial for making an infection thing, and I suppose turning them back could be as simple as refreshing them (though that might not be the route you want to take with that).

Mutator
You’d probably want to use Touched event and detect the touching parts. Then you’d want to loop around the children of the character, changing their bodycolor and clone the mutator script and parenting it to the children of the character.
Disinfector
First you’d make a simple ray gun (I assume you know how to make a simple gun so I’ll leave that to you) then instead of damaging the player as a normal gun would, it would change the bodycolor of the character as well as remove the mutator scripts.

Hope this helped.

Yes, thank you!

I hate this 30 character thing.
