I am not sure but there’s a possibility it might work. I did something similar when my GUI was not detecting mouseLeave()

ZonePlus has different functions, not just detecting players
findPart, findPlayer, getParts etc

TouchEnded is also notorious for being faulty and bad

yes but get part and find part both needs me to identify the part first, not touching it
I see on item enter but idk, I tried it before and either I did it wrong or it does not work

yes but it works perfectly when i delete the script and move it using the workspace mover instead
maybe teleporting isn’t helping the touchended

Maybe ill use it if it’s the last option possible, I’m running experiments on what could be the cause (Im losing my sanity)

okay so after deleting the script, teleporting works, so teleporting isn’t the problem
it legit works fine after i delete the click dector, I think its something in the script

You will have to make a check to see if the part is still touching the part you’re checking for if you want to use TouchEnded. Using TouchEnded in this way is going to result in many false-positives.
What Devloper above was trying to say is that you are currently telling the script to run your functions whenever anything touches or stops touching the part area, because you have connected those events to the functions. Therefore, when you or anything else touches it/stops touching it, it will attempt to run those functions, and since “Box” is presently touching the part, it will successfully run them.
Notice how when you are not standing inside of the part it does not repeatedly print “ye” and “false”. That is because when you are standing inside of the part, your player’s idle animation is triggering the event because you are standing inside of the part. The Touched event is not so sophisticated that it can tell whether you are already currently touching the part when checking for touched.

intresting, do you have any ideas on checking if it is still touching? since the .touched event is the only thing checking

Make sure that there are no overlapping collisions or unexpected interactions causing the touch event to trigger incorrectly. You might want to review the collision logic and conditions.
If you did check use a hacky trick.
Make a variable called isTouching enable and disable it using the touch and touchendded methods and then just handle the rest with functions.

It really depends on the use case, there are alternatives to using touchEnded, but they may not be useful to you depending on what you’re trying to achieve.
But for this, the first thing I would try is go into the function that is connected to touchEnded, and start that function by first checking if the desired part is still touching it by using workspace.GetPartsInPart(yourpart) which will return a table of the parts currently within the bounds of “yourpart”. If the part is still within the part at the time that touchEnded is called, then end, else (if part is not within the table) then [rest of the function].

Detecting Script:

Cooldown Mechanism: Added a cooldown variable to prevent rapid reactivation of the box. This ensures that the box cannot be placed again until a cooldown time has passed.
local cooldown = false
Disconnect Input Events: Added proper disconnection of input events when not needed. This helps prevent unexpected behavior, especially when the player dies.
UIS.InputBegan:Disconnect()
UIS.InputEnded:Disconnect()
Cooldown Mechanism: Similar to the carried part script, a canPlace variable was introduced to control when the box can be placed. This prevents rapid placement.
local canPlace = true
These improvements and additions are aimed at making the code more robust, readable, and easier to maintain. The cooldown mechanisms are particularly important to prevent unintended behavior when placing or interacting with the box.

It is best for you to not use .Touched and .TouchEnded events as they are very unreliable. Instead use :GetPartsInPart() which is much more reliable.
To use this just do:
local Part = workspace.Part
local function SeeParts()
for _,part in pairs(workspace:GetPartsInPart(Part)) do
if part.Name == "Box" then
print("Touching Box")
return true
end
end
print("Not touching box")
return false
end
while Part do
SeeParts()
task.wait(1)
end

After testing your game with multple solutions I am glad to say My mind is blank…
It seems there’s always a problem detecting with touchended. Why don’t you try region3 or Zoneplus? Seriously man, TouchEnded just feels so broken.
