Why is my script getting this error?

Hello, Im trying to make it so that whenever a player kill’s another player, they have to get 2 more kills in 9 seconds, and they will be awarded something if they are successful.

Im getting this error though, and Im not sure how to fix it.

Error:

  21:36:14.713  Touched is not a valid member of LocalScript "Workspace.Dummy.Streak"  -  Server - CheckDmg:9
  21:36:14.713  Stack Begin  -  Studio
  21:36:14.713  Script 'Workspace.Dummy.DamagedBy.CheckDmg', Line 9  -  Studio - CheckDmg:9
  21:36:14.713  Stack End  -  Studio

Script:

local damagedBy = script.Parent

local h = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local hrp = h.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

h.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
	for i, v in pairs(hrp.Parent:GetChildren())  do
		v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit.Name == "Handle" then
				damagedBy = hit.Parent.Parent.Name
			end
		end)
	end
end)

Watchout for tools and accesories parenting player.

if v:IsA("BasePart") then
		v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if hit.Name == "Handle" then
				damagedBy = hit.Parent.Parent.Name
			end
		end)
end

I got this error now

  21:52:40.015  Touched is not a valid member of StringValue "Workspace.Dummy.DamagedBy"  -  Server - CheckDmg:9
  21:52:40.015  Stack Begin  -  Studio

  21:52:40.016  Stack End  -  Studio

local damagedBy = script.Parent

local h = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local hrp = h.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

h.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
	for i, v in pairs(hrp.Parent:GetChildren())  do
		v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if v:IsA("BasePart") then
				v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
					if hit.Name == "Handle" then
						damagedBy = hit.Parent.Parent.Name
					end
				end)
			end
		end)
	end
end)

Turn damagedBy into StringValue, then:

damagedBy.Value = hit.Parent.Parent.Name

Also check that part can be touched before adding touched:connect().

Get rid of the first Touched function.

You need to add a if statment to check whether it is a BasePart as something like a LocalScript (as referred to in your error) does not have the .Touched property

Potential fix:

local damagedBy = script.Parent
local h = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local hrp = h.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

h.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
	for i, v in pairs(hrp.Parent:GetChildren())  do
		if v:IsA("BasePart") then
			v.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
				if hit.Name == "Handle" then
					damagedBy = hit.Parent.Parent.Name
				end
			end)
		end
	end
end)

i recommended the damageBy should be changed by the hitter

making a lot of events really a bad idea

This made it work, but now for some reason, after the 9 seconds, the print function doesn’t work.

Their aren’t any errors eathier.

local db = script.Parent:WaitForChild("DamagedBy")

local h = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local selfKills = script:WaitForChild("Kills")

local BadgeService = game:GetService("BadgeService")

local Audio = Instance.new("Sound")

function dead()
	local KilledBy = db

	for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do
		if v.ClassName == "Model" then
			if v.Name == KilledBy.Name then
				local Kills = v:WaitForChild("Streak"):WaitForChild("Kills")

				Kills += 1
			end
		end
	end
end

if h.Health == 0 then
	dead()
end

while true do
	task.wait()
	
	if selfKills.Value == 1 then
		task.wait(4.5)
		
		if selfKills == 2 then
			task.wait(4.5)
			
			if selfKills == 3 then
				print("Success!")
			end
		end
	end
end

This should works.

while task.wait() do
	if selfKills.Value >= 1 then
		task.wait(4.5)
		
		if selfKills.Value >= 2 then
			task.wait(4.5)
			
			if selfKills.Value >= 3 then
				print("Success!")
			end
		end
		selfKills.Value = 0
	end
end

Like this?

local damagedBy = script.Parent

local h = script.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local hrp = h.Parent:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

while task.wait() do
	if selfKills.Value >= 1 then
		task.wait(4.5)

		if selfKills >= 2 then
			task.wait(4.5)

			if selfKills >= 3 then
				print("Success!")
			end
		end
		selfKills = 0
	end
end

I edited my original post as I found something wrong with code.
