i have a problem with my enemy where when it runs the respawn script it just respawns it but its dead, i’ve tried various different things but i can’t seem to figure it out, some guidance would be greatly apprenticed.

here is my script

local EnemiesFolder = workspace.Enemies
local EnemyTable = {}
local Enemies = EnemiesFolder:GetChildren()



--Services
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

also orignally the respawn part was this
--When Health = 0 EnemyHumanoid.Died:Connect(function() task.wait(1) local EnemyClone = Enemy:Clone() EnemyClone.Parent = EnemiesFolder Enemy:Destroy() end)

okay update on this post, i got the enemy to spawn alive, but it no longer moves or attacks

#5

You are cloning the enemy when it’s dead, so the clone will also be dead. You probably could change the health on the cloned enemy

	EnemiesFolder.ChildAdded:Connect(function()
		EnemyHumanoid.died:Connect(function()
			task.wait(2)
			local EnemyClone = Enemy:Clone()
            EnemyClone.Humanoid.Health = EnemyClone.Humanoid.MaxHealth
			EnemyClone.Parent = EnemiesFolder
			Enemy:Destroy()
		end)
	end)
#6

by reading that if the “Enemy” is dead you are copying the “Dead” enemy, you can easily fix that by saving the enemy before he is dead or what trololo said, that works too

#7

i clone the enemy just above EnemyHumanoid.Died:Connect(function() so now it respawns alive, but it only works once and it stops moving and all that now
my new respawn code is this

local EnemyClone = Enemy:Clone()
	--When Health = 0 
	EnemyHumanoid.Died:Connect(function() 
		task.wait(1) 
		EnemyClone.Parent = EnemiesFolder
		 Enemy:Destroy() 
	end)

but it doesn’t move anymore or attack, do you have any ideas on how to fix this?

#8

i should probably make a different post for this now since its been resolved
