Ranged weapons don't add to a kill counter

Found it. Change this to the player who fired the gun or their name, forget which is used here.

That’s not going to work.

It’s an ObjectValue. Like I said, use the tool:FindFirstAncestorWhichIsA(“Player”) method.

Wait, would I change this to using that method you told me?

tagHumanoid(h)

All I said was that he should be replacing it with the Player object or the player’s name, I didn’t remember which he used. Guess it was player object then!

Thanks for clarifying.

local tool = script.Parent
local player = tool:FindFirstAncestorWhichIsA("Player")
function tagHumanoid(humanoid, player)
	local creator_tag=Instance.new("ObjectValue")
	creator_tag.Value=player
	creator_tag.Name="creator"
	debris:AddItem(creator,3)
	creator_tag.Parent=humanoid
end

... -- in the damage function
tagHumanoid(humanoid, plr)

You’re welcome, sorry if I came off a bit rude.

vxsqi · January 25, 2022, 2:57pm

Is the “humanoid” meant to be undefined?

SamsAltAcc0unt · January 25, 2022, 2:58pm

It’s fine. I apologize if I seemed upset, didn’t mean it to be that way.

Important thing is that the problem was solved

Humanoid is the humanoid that you had damaged, you are supposed to put that part in your damage function.

vxsqi:

if h~=nil and h.Health>0 and GLib.IsTeammate(GLib.GetPlayerFromPart(script), GLib.GetPlayerFromPart(h))~=true then
					tagHumanoid(h, player)
					plr.leaderstats.Kills.Value = plr.leaderstats.Kills.Value + 1
					h:TakeDamage(damage)
				end

Don’t forget to remove the leaderstats part, you should have duplicate leaderstats after this.
