Touch Event Not Working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    i want the script to sense when a player(a different player not yours) touches the hitbox part

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    the touch sensing part of the script isnt working the rest is

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    i tried removing the “if not results[i]:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then” part but it still didnt work

also the part isnt anchored so that isnt why

script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local rps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
	local debris = game:GetService("Debris")
	local players = game:GetService("Players")
	
	local Hitbox = rps.KISenseHitBox:Clone()
	Hitbox.Parent = player.Character
	Hitbox.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
	
	local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	weld.Part0 = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	weld.Part1 = Hitbox
	weld.Parent = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	local results = Hitbox:GetTouchingParts()
	
	for i, obj in pairs(results) do
		if not results[i]:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then
			local ehumanoid = results[i].Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			local ehumrp = results[i].Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
			if ehumanoid and ehumanoid.Health > 0 then
				print("hi")
			end
		end
		end
		end)

if u can help then ty

Try this

before you set results to Hitbox:GetTouchingParts() do Touch event
Hitbox.Touced:Connect(function() end)

don’t but anything in the function just like this

My ideas:

1. Ensure that the event is in fact being fired
You can do this by using prints at the beginning of the provided script, like this:

script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	print(“hi”)
        local rps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
	local debris = game:GetService("Debris")
	local players = game:GetService("Players")
	
	local Hitbox = rps.KISenseHitBox:Clone()
	Hitbox.Parent = player.Character
	Hitbox.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
	
	local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	weld.Part0 = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	weld.Part1 = Hitbox
	weld.Parent = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	local results = Hitbox:GetTouchingParts()
	
	for i, obj in pairs(results) do
		if not results[i]:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then
			local ehumanoid = results[i].Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			local ehumrp = results[i].Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
			if ehumanoid and ehumanoid.Health > 0 then
				print("hi")
			end
		end
		end
		end)

2. Change the use of i to obj
If I remember correctly, using i will use a numerical value of the object’s position in the table you’re using. Using obj will find the object in the Explorer and use that instead.

Example:

script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local rps = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
	local debris = game:GetService("Debris")
	local players = game:GetService("Players")
	
	local Hitbox = rps.KISenseHitBox:Clone()
	Hitbox.Parent = player.Character
	Hitbox.CFrame = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
	
	local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	weld.Part0 = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	weld.Part1 = Hitbox
	weld.Parent = player.Character.HumanoidRootPart
	local results = Hitbox:GetTouchingParts()
	
	for i, obj in pairs(results) do
		if not results[obj]:IsDescendantOf(player.Character) then
			local ehumanoid = results[obj].Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
			local ehumrp = results[obj].Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
			if ehumanoid and ehumanoid.Health > 0 then
				print("hi")
			end
		end
		end
		end)
