What Could Cause This Problem?

[XV4BT3]

I am making a door opening system, but the touched event is only firing if I jump. What could cause this problem?

Server Script

local distanceModule = require(game.ServerScriptService.doorHandlers.getDistance)
local doorFolder = game.Workspace.castleDoors
local collectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")

local currentTag = 1
for _, model in ipairs(doorFolder:GetChildren()) do
	collectionService:AddTag(model.Union, "doorUnions")
	currentTag += 1
end

for _, part in pairs(collectionService:GetTagged("doorUnions")) do
	part.Touched:Connect(function(hit: Part)
		local character = hit.Parent
		
		if character then
			local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
			if not player then return end
			local result = distanceModule:getPlayerDistance(player, part)
			
			if result == true then
				part.CanCollide = false
			end
		end
	end)
end

Module Script

local module = {}

function module:getPlayerDistance(player: Player, doorModel)
	local playerCharacter = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	
	if playerCharacter then
		if (Vector3.new(doorModel.CFrame.X, doorModel.CFrame.Y, doorModel.CFrame.Z) - Vector3.new(playerCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.X,playerCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Y,playerCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Z)).Magnitude <= 3 then
			return true
		else
			return false
		end
	end
end

return module

I’ve recorded a Medal clip, you can find it here.

Thanks in advance!

1. Bit nitpicky, but do not convert CFrames to Vector3s using your method, just do this. It’s faster to write and run.

if (doorModel.CFrame.Position - playerCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position).Magnitude <= 3

2. This could be caused by accessory parts colliding with the object. Try to either just change it to every heartbeat if you want it to just run it, or you can make it detect for accesories as well by doing

local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character) or game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character.Parent) -- Character.Parent would be the accessory class, and the part hit would be the handle underneath.

Oh, I forgot. I know why it didn’t fire. I had the minimum studs set to three. So when I jump I was close enough to the center of the union. But if I just walked in it I wasn’t…

Anyways, still thanks for your help!
