Hello! I’m doing PVP for my upcoming game but when I touch a player with what is needed it also counts the accessory so it’s not getting what is touched and sometimes it does it correctly when not touching a accessory, just wanna know how do I make it count with touching the accessory and the normal meshparts of the player?

I ain’t showing any scripts to show because there isn’t really anything to show it’s simple to do what I just done.

Create a hitbox for your accessory

#3

I diddn’t think about making a hitbox thanks I’ll go ahead and try it out.

#4

By the way, if you don’t want to worry about multiple hits from body parts, just detect for a part named “HumanoidRootPart”. Will make your life easier.

#5

Wait, I can’t make a hitbox it’s a normal player character not a NPC

#6

Will go ahead and try this thanks!

#7

You can create hitboxes in accessories, even when its a player

#8

Can’t, It’s roblox avatar ones not custom made.

#9

Learn how to do accessories, then you know how you can do hitboxes for them. In this case you would just replace the accessories with a changed copy of the original.

#10

How would I do this? It’s a object I’m detected what touches it and it’s getting everything from the player so how would I make it count the “accessory.Parent.Parent” With the “Hit.Parent”?

Example:
accessory.Parent.Parent
Is
image

And
Hit.Parent
is
image

(rn im testing with npc’s but it’s going to be made for hitting real robloxians)

#11

I’m sorry, I don’t really understand what you are trying to do.

Do you want it so that if a player touches an accessory on another player the player gets it?

#12

No, It’s a throwing game and we throw stuff. I’m trying to do so if the Cloned Throwing Object hits a player it removes damage and stuff but It seems to be counting the accessory Meshpart / Part instead of the actual player meshparts

#13

Oh, I see.

When the object hits the accessory:

shuriken.Touched:Connect(function(part)
	if part:IsA("BasePart") and part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		-- Remove the  player's part
	end
end)

Basically, this checks if the part is a direct child of the character.

#14

Edit: Read your thing competley wrong ahha I will chec kinto this thanks.

#15

No problem, also I edited it that’s why. (I misunderstood your post as well)

#16

what I’m trying to do is get the player name every time a object touches the player would this do that?

#17

It technically would. If you then use

local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)

Sorry if I misunderstand just let me know.

#18

Omg I just thought of something… I can maybe turn off cantouch on accessorys parts with a script… I will do this then continue the conversation if this continues

#19

Or you could just check the class of the parent of the touching part, if it’s “Accessory” then you can ignore the touch or perform some other action.

local part = script.Parent

part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if hit.Parent:IsA("Accessory") then
		--ignore touch or do some other action
	end
end)
