Script doesn't load up at all

Hi!

I’m on a Roblox dev camp and want to lock the player’s camera in first-person mode when they enter a certain area.

I put in a part with CanCollide turned off and a local script inside the part that, when touched, should set the player’s CameraMode to LockFirstPerson, however when testing it I found out the script wouldn’t start at all.

I tried moving the script into ServerScriptService and coding it so that it’d find the part from there, but it didn’t work either.

The code is as follows:

local playerService = game:GetService("Players")
local player = playerService.LocalPlayer

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function()
	player.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson
end)

off topic but how do you know that its the player touching the part and not some other player or another object?

#3

is the localscript perhaps in workspace?

#4

It’s under the part.

Could be the problem, is there a way to filter it to players only?

okay, make a LocalScript in StarterGui or in StarterPlayerScripts and paste the following script

local players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = players.LocalPlayer
local part = workspace.Part

part.Touched:Connect(function(Touch)
	local playerTouching = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Touch.Parent)
	if playerTouching then
		if playerTouching == player then
			player.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson
		end
	end
end)
