idk why is this happening but im using tag editor
for _, Pad in pairs(Pads) do
Pad.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
print("touched")
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
AddPlayer(player, Pad)
end)
end
touched doesn’t print i have it as parts
please follow the suggested format when posting, what are you trying to achieve?
im trying to achieve that the touched event should work
You need to check if the part you touched is part of a character model:
for _, Pad in pairs(Pads) do
Pad.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
print("touched")
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
AddPlayer(player, Pad)
end
end)
end
i just said the touched doesn’t print
Can you show us the pads in the explorer?
Ah, there’s your problem. Your using .touched on a folder, which a folder doesn’t even have.
im using tag editor and this is the result
Do you get any errors in your output?
not a single error in my output
i tried printing outside the loop and it didn’t print
Is this a local script? And where is this script located?
im using aero and its a server side module
Can you provide all the code that’s related to the module? Cause just from that one code, we can’t really do much for you.
Also whats aero?
a framework and here is the full code

it’s probably because you’re printing ‘touched’ (the word) instead of ‘hit’ (the person touching)
Print() will work with any string. Example;
print("hello word!")
Are you tagging the folders “Team1” and “Team2”?
i don’t so yeah it should work but it didn’t
