I have set up a death effect system so that different swords have different death efffects but it’s not detecting that the sword is “Darkheart” so its just doing the normal reset death effect.
Local script inside starter character script where I Identify which sword has killed the player based off a ‘tag’:
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
if script.Parent.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("Darkheart") then
game.ReplicatedStorage.DiedRE:FireServer("Darkheart")
else
game.ReplicatedStorage.DiedRE:FireServer("Reset")
end
end)
The death effect script:
local ts = game:GetService("TweenService")
local fadeTI = TweenInfo.new(5, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)
local particlesTI = TweenInfo.new(2, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut)
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
humanoid.BreakJointsOnDeath = false
end)
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.DiedRE.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, sword)
if not plr.Character or not plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then return end
local char = plr.Character
local humanoid = char.Humanoid
if sword == "Darkheart" then -- this could be called as I kill them with the sword
-- Death effect (just ignore as this isn't the issue)
char.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.DeathAnimation):Play()
for i, d in pairs(char:GetDescendants()) do
if d:IsA("BasePart") or d:IsA("Decal") then
spawn(function()
ts:Create(d, fadeTI, {Transparency = 1}):Play()
local particles = script.DeathParticles:Clone()
particles.Rate = 0
ts:Create(particles, particlesTI, {Rate = 100}):Play()
particles.Parent = d
wait(3)
ts:Create(particles, particlesTI, {Rate = 0}):Play()
end)
end
end
else -- Even though I kill them with the sword this is what is called
char.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
humanoid.BreakJointsOnDeath = true
end
task.wait(5)
plr:LoadCharacter()
end)
Finally the sword script where I add the tag named “Darkheart” (note this tag is normally called “creator” I just changed it to the name of the sword:
--Rescripted by Luckymaxer
--EUROCOW WAS HERE BECAUSE I MADE THE PARTICLES AND THEREFORE THIS ENTIRE SWORD PRETTY AND LOOK PRETTY WORDS AND I'D LIKE TO DEDICATE THIS TO MY FRIENDS AND HI LUCKYMAXER PLS FIX SFOTH SWORDS TY LOVE Y'ALl
