Why is :Destroy() Not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

(Just making a script btw)

#43

It seems as though your issue may arise from the fact that there are multiple parts named “Freddy” within your workspace.

#44

That might be true i just dont know how to make like “Freddy1” printed and named then another one generates “Freddy2” printed and named but heres a example

Add this script into ServerScriptService: (and change the variable sellBlock to your actual sell part thing)

local CollectionService = game:GetService("CollectionService")
local connections = {}

local function makeDrop(part)
	local connection = part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit == sellBlock then --> sellBlock = whatever the sell thing is
			part:Destroy()
			-- Add money
		end
	end)
	
	connections[part] = connection
end


for _, drop in pairs(CollectionService:GetTagged("Drop")) do
	makeDrop(drop)
end

CollectionService:GetInstanceAddedSignal("Drop"):Connect(function(drop)
	makeDrop(drop)
end)

CollectionService:GetInstanceRemovedSignal("Drop"):Connect(function(drop)
	if connections[drop] then
		connections[drop]:Disconnect()
	end
end)

Then in the script where you are making the drops, once the drop has been made add this line:

game:GetService("CollectionService"):AddTag(drop --[[The part you just made]], "Drop")

You’d need to go into the script that instances those parts to fix the naming issue. One possible way to do it would be is creating a variable, ‘x’ for example, and having that variable increase by 1 every time a part is created, then having the name of said instanced part set to “Freddy” + x.

#47

Thats hard to remember but ill try it

#48

CollectionService is basically a service that lets you add any function to something - bad explanation but heres a tutorial if you wanted to learn a bit more about it.

#49

Ok so i put it in there and why does it say --Add Money do i do something like

local tokens = game.Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Tokens")

???

#50

Ok ill try the tutorial out tomorrow because i cant watch youtube until like Fridays and Saturdays

#51

It’s just there to show you that’s where you would normally give money to the player, I don’t know how you’re doing the money though so I just put – Add money

#52

I have no idea ill take pic of explorer and scripts cause it aint working

Done tell me whats wrong when you figure it out

#54

Ok thank you for your time i think i should just make a folder everytime one spawns and delete that folder if you have any ideas i would love to hear them

#55

What is the parent of that “freddy”?
I don’t see it on the workspace…

#56

Instead of putting the :AddTag thing in that script, put it just afterwards “Freddy” has been made.

#57

Ok im maaking freddy from a instance.new thing

#58

do you mind showing the dropper’s script too?

#59

Yea sorry i am working on a new game at this moment lemme open im just messing around with scripts

#60

ok but plz copy and paste it here instead of posting a screen shot

#61

Here it is

local drops = 0

while true do
	task.wait(3)
	drops+=1 
	local freddy = Instance.new("Part")
	local droparea = script.Parent
	freddy.Name = "Freddy" 
	freddy.Size = Vector3.new(1, 1, 1)
	freddy.Position = droparea.Position -- the Vector3 position of "droparea"
	freddy.Parent = workspace
end
