Some questions about destructible parts

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

You have parts stored in the ignore list by name and you probably have multiple parts of the same name and they’ll all count as ignored.

Store them as IGNORE_LIST[Object] = true and then to check if it’s ignored just check IGNORE_LIST[Object]

#9

There’s nothing stored in the ignore list, And even when I tried putting this right after "Rocket.Touched:Connect(Function(TOuchPart), Still not working…
Is there a script which I can just put inside the model which will destroy his children if blew up?

#10

The Destroy() function calls itself on all of the children of the object you called it on, destroying all of its descendants.

#11

Then what’s wrong with the code…?

if ExplodeEvent then
	Rocket.Touched:Connect(function(TouchPart)
	delay(7, function()
		TouchPart:Destroy()
	end)
		if not IGNORE_LIST[string.lower(TouchPart.Name)] and not TouchPart:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
			ExplodeEvent:FireServer(Rocket.Position)
			if callFunction == false then
				callFunction = true
				LocalTouchSound:play()
				wait(0.5)
				callFunction = false
			end
		end
	end
)end

end

#12

You’re trying to have the model destroyed, yes? Is at least the touch part being destroyed?

#13

The touch parts, All parts that are touched by the explosion.

Making a script that will make all fallen parts disappear after 5 seconds
#14

Is at least the touch part being destroyed?

#15

When I look closely, Both my hand and one single part out of all fallen parts is being destroyed…

#16

I believe your destroy function is run before the whitelist checker.

if ExplodeEvent then
	Rocket.Touched:Connect(function(TouchPart)

		if not IGNORE_LIST[string.lower(TouchPart.Name)] and not TouchPart:IsDescendantOf(Character) then
	delay(7, function()
		TouchPart:Destroy() -- moved it here
	end)
			ExplodeEvent:FireServer(Rocket.Position)
			if callFunction == false then
				callFunction = true
				LocalTouchSound:play()
				wait(0.5)
				callFunction = false
			end
		end
	end
)end
#17

That’s what I did before, Now my hand is not being destroyed, But only one part is being destroyed.

#18

Switch it from Touch:Destroy to Touch.Parent:Destroy()

#19

Then it will destroy the whole model…
I only want to destroy the parts that are no longer connected to the rest of the buildings, The parts that were affected by the explosion and fell off.

#21

That’s also an option, But then I will have to put the script in every single part…

#22

Where are you doing the explosion?

#23

In the rocket launcher script, Local script

#24

You should do the explosion on the server so other clients can see it.

#25

I’m not sure where the explosion is, The rocket launcher is a free model, But I think it’s on the server…

#26

#27

It’s only talking about damaging humans, The rocket launcher destroyed the first part fine, I just need a way for it to destroy all other parts that fell…
