Touch event only affected by Humanoid or Torso

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

How would I come to make a touch event only being affected by Humanoid or Torso?
The purpose is to fire a remoteevent to be fired once.

local part = script.Parent
local re = part.RemoteEvent

local function oT(part)
	if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		re:FireClient(player)
		print("In")
	end
end

local function oTE(part)
	print("Moved")
end

part.Touched:Connect(oT) -- onTOuch
part.TouchEnded:Connect(oTE) -- onTouchEnded

try checking if the part’s name is torso or HumanoidRootPart as well as your normal checks.

How would I come to check if its either a torso or a humanoidrootpart?

#4

For R6 avatars.

if part.Name == "Torso" or part.Name == "HumanoidRootPart" then
#5 
if part.Name == "UpperTorso" or part.Name == "LowerTorso" then

This would be required for R15 avatars.
