Nothing happening in a script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I am making this script which adds a back part as a hitbox to the player’s humanoid root part, but it doesn’t work

local backbox = script.Parent

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer

local character = player.Character

if not character or not character.Parent then

character = player.CharacterAdded:wait()

end

wait(1)

if character then

local hrp = character.HumanoidRootPart

local weld = Instance.new("Weld")

weld.Part0 = hrp

weld.Part1 = backbox

weld.Parent = script.Parent

backbox.Position = hrp

end

Any help is appreciated.

You never defined part0 anywhere in the script also, where is the script

3

The part is in workspace while it is the parent of the local script. I did define part0 as hrp

4

Where is this script located in the game?

Im stupid, just ignore when i said you never defined part 0. Is the local script under the workspace?
also im not sure if you are changing the position of part0, you are only parenting it under the humanoid root part, and not changing the position. Im not on my computer right now so i dont remember if it automatically moves the attachment under the parent

6

If the script is under server storage or replicated storage it wont run

I got this message: " Unable to assign property Position. Vector3 expected, got Instance - Client - HitBoxSetup:20"

Yes, I am dividing the player’s hitbox in 2, the front and back
