    Here is it
  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub? I looked on youtube, there everything was fine

My code:

local Rock = script.Parent
local SettingsUI = Rock.Settings

local swingsLeft = 15

local function onTouch(otherPart)
	local tool = otherPart.Parent
	
	if tool:IsA('Tool') and tool.Mining.Value == true then
		swingsLeft -= 1
		SettingsUI.Frame.OreName.TextLabel.Text = "Coal Ore ("..swingsLeft.."/15)"
		SettingsUI.Frame.HealthFrame.Frame.Frame:TweenSize(UDim2.new(swingsLeft/10,0,1,0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, 1, true)	
	end
	if swingsLeft <= 0 then
		Rock:Destroy()
		Rock.Parent.Union:Destroy()
	end
end

Rock.Touched:Connect(onTouch())

Rock.Touched:Connect(onTouch())

You mean

Rock.Touched:Connect(onTouch)
#3

otherPart is a tool handle from a tool

yeah just noticed, i’ve edited the post, you were actually calling the onTouch function with nil variable.

functions can be called without putting () in the events.
Example:

function go(hit)
   print(hit) -- works
end
part.Touched:Connect(go)

Because you made the function to detect whenever the Rock is touched.
