Hey! So I’m having a problem similar to the problem I had yesterday. So basically I want to destroy the sword giver only to the player who got the sword, but it deletes for everyone. This probably is a simple fix but I’m just a noob . If you know how to fix this please tell me. Thanks!
swordGiver.Touched:Connect(function(player)
local humanoid = player.Parent.Humanoid
humanoid:EquipTool(sword)
doneChatting = true
if doneChatting == true then
swordGiver:Destroy()
dialog.Text = "goodbye :("
end
if doneChatting == true then
yes2.Visible = false
end
end)
You would put this in a localscript so it wont make changes to the server but the client(You), also you might wanna put that second if statement combine with the first statement
if doneChatting == true then
swordGiver:Destroy()
dialog.Text = "goodbye :("
yes2.Visible = false
end
Also potential issues if executed in this localscript is that an exploiter could change part of this code and make the sword Not destroy by removing the touch event function
First, you can make a value inside a player like this: Instance.new("BoolValue").
Then you’ll need to set the name, parent and value of the bool. You can do this by doing this:
local CanGetSword = Instance.new("BoolValue")
CanGetSword.Name = "CanGetSword"
CanGetSword.Value = true
CanGetSword.Parent = player --You will see about what player am I talking later.
The whole Script will look like this (it should be a Script and you can put it in ServerScriptService, I named the Script SwordValue):
game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) --Handles player join.
local CanGetSword = Instance.new("BoolValue")
CanGetSword.Name = "CanGetSword"
CanGetSword.Value = true
CanGetSword.Parent = player
end)
The value Script is done. Now we need to add some changes to the giver Script:
swordGiver.Touched:Connect(function(player)
if player:WaitForChild("CanGetSword").Value == true then
local humanoid = player.Parent.Humanoid
humanoid:EquipTool(sword)
swordGiver:Destroy()
dialog.Text = "goodbye :("
yes2.Visible = false
else
--Notify player here that he already got/ can't get the Sword.
end
end)
-- Assuming there is a server script inside of the "Sword Giver" object
local alreadyFired = {
}
local sg = script.Parent
local rm = Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
rm.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage
function getPlayerFromPart(part)
local maybePlayer = part.Parent.Name
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if v.Name == maybePlayer then
return v
end
end
return nil
end
sg.Touched:Connect(function(part)
local player = getPlayerFromPart(part) or false
if player == false then
return
else
-- give sword then fire client
if not alreadyFired[player] then
rm:FireClient(player)
alreadyFired[player] = true
else
return
end
end
end)
on the client, in playerscripts
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
local sg = -- sword giver path
sg:Destroy()
end)
. If you know how to fix this please tell me. Thanks!
