local Info = TweenInfo.new(10,Enum.EasingStyle.Cubic,Enum.EasingDirection.Out,0,false,0)

add a creator tag and make in touched if creator = name of touched parent then dont do damage

[keen quail]

ty

[tiny sail]

np

[keen quail]

but

how

Ball.Touched?

[tiny sail]

yea

[keen quail]

So I do another function?

[tiny sail]

ball.touched:connect(function(hit,plr) if "creator tag value" == "plr name" then else "damage code" end end)

yes

also do denounce

cuz it will damage every time it hits another part

[keen quail]

ooh ok

[keen quail]

debounce?

ok

ty

[tiny sail]

cooldown thingy

[keen quail]

ok ty

[tiny sail]

np*

[keen quail]

😻

[keen quail]

So? creator = plr.Name

[tiny sail]

creator.value = plr.name

[keen quail]

I could not understand

[keen quail]

oooh ok

[tiny sail]

string value

[keen quail]

Where would I put this string?

Do I create in the script itself?

[tiny sail]

in ball

[keen quail]

ok

[keen quail]

Like this?

            local Creator = Instance.new("StringValue")
            Creator.Parent = Ball
            Creator.Value = plr.Name
        
            if Creator.Value == plr.Name then
            else
                local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
                humanoid.Health -= 25
            end
            end)```

[tiny sail]

yeah but you forgot debouce
this script will insta kill a player

[keen quail]

ye ye i know

[keen quail]

but the output sai this

[tiny sail]

huh

hmmmm

oh wait.

[jovial tangle]

** You are now Level 3! **

[tiny sail]

you need to put

creator value in the start

and set the owner in there

[keen quail]

Start of script?

or the function

[tiny sail]

do you have some kind sort of

[keen quail]

xd

[tiny sail]

it won't wort bc of 2 reasons

[keen quail]

I only have 1 week of programming

[keen quail]

hum

[tiny sail]

you need to set the creator

[keen quail]

But isn't it already defined?

[tiny sail]

but the toucher of ball is a guy who doesnt own a ball right?

[tiny sail]

uh no?

[keen quail]

ye

[tiny sail]

i uh

dont think so

[keen quail]

Creator.Value = player.Name ?

[tiny sail]

it will give an error says no such thing as player.name

ye

[keen quail]

ok

[tiny sail]

uh btw can you give the explorer thingy where script is located

[keen quail]

Hm

I have a question, will the player parameter always return the player?

[keen quail]

Sorry if I misunderstood

[tiny sail]

hmm

that's is weird

im too confused to solve this!

yaho

[keen quail]

bruh

If you don't want to solve it, no problem.

[tiny sail]

no i mean

theres no possible way to set creator

[keen quail]

hm

[tiny sail]

it will just roll and damage i guess

[keen quail]

By the way, I had heard about a thing called IsDescendantOf

[keen quail]

Anyway, I'll have to leave, maybe later I'll try to sort this out. Thanks a lot for the help

[tiny sail]

np.

[tiny sail]

idk how to use it

hope you get better at scripting

[keen quail]

Ty

[hearty geyser]

Take it literally

Like if the script is a descendant of a part, then you do stuff

[tiny sail]

if IDO then

[jovial tangle]

** You are now Level 4! **

[keen quail]

Yes, but like I said, I've only heard about it, I have no idea how to use it.

And there are not so many roblox studio tutorials here

[nova grotto]

Ball.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local e = hit.Parent
local ehum = e.Humanoid
if e.Name == Creator.Value then return end
ehum:TakeDamage(25)
end

[keen quail]

where?

a]

i see

[nova grotto]

replace the current touched script with that

[keen quail]

ok, wait a minute

[keen quail]

and the creator value is

[nova grotto]

wdym

[keen quail]

Creator.Value = player.Name

?

[nova grotto]

acutlaly

you dont even need creator

[keen quail]

oh ok

[nova grotto]

replace creator.value with Player.Name

youre making a useless value

if you already have the plr

[keen quail]

oh ok

[keen quail]

like this?

[nova grotto]

no

remove the local creator

replace creator.value in the .touched script with player.name

[keen quail]

?

or only value?

[nova grotto]

bruh

replace the entire .Touched script with this

Ball.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local e = hit.Parent
local ehum = e.Humanoid
if e.Name == Player.Name then return end
ehum:TakeDamage(25)
end

[keen quail]

sure

[jovial tangle]

** You are now Level 4! **

[keen quail]

Sorry if I misunderstood something, I'm not fluent

[nova grotto]

wait

what is player

[nova grotto]

Block.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = hit.Parent
local humanoid = player.Humanoid
rest of script blah blah blah
end

it should work now

[keen quail]

ok

It worked

[nova grotto]

nice

[keen quail]

Thank you for your help
