scaling problem

[livid estuary]

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
character:ScaleTo(0.792) -- Make the character's size 0.792x smaller
end)
end)

[livid estuary]

it activates when the player spawns in and I'm trying to make it only do that when the player steps on a part

[valid forum]

yeah, because you are listening for when a player is added

hence PlayerAdded

also, why do you have two?

[jagged minnow]

Why not you use a Touched event and verify if it's the player that touches it ?

[valid forum]

to do it when the player touches a part you need a script inside the part:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(oP)
  if op.jjkfdhglskfd --check if its a valid character part
    --scale
end)

something along the lines of that

[livid estuary]

I started scripting 3 days ago so I didn't know about that

[jagged minnow]

Try this :

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Part = workspace.Part

Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local character = hit.Parent
    player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
    if player then
     character:ScaleTo(0.792) -- Make the character's size 0.792x smaller
    end
end)

[livid estuary]

Ok

[jagged minnow]

Does it work ?

[livid estuary]

No

Nothing happens now

[jagged minnow]

Did you insert a part in the workspace ?

[jagged minnow]

I think this should work :

local Part = workspace.Part -- This is a part you have created in the workspace

Part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local character = hit.Parent
    if character:IsA("Model") then
     character:ScaleTo(0.792) -- Make the character's size 0.792x smaller
    end
end)

[livid estuary]

The part is called Head, would that affect it?

[jagged minnow]

Is the part is called Head then :

local Head = workspace.Head -- This is a part you have created in the workspace

Head.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local character = hit.Parent
    if character:IsA("Model") then
     character:ScaleTo(0.792) -- Make the character's size 0.792x smaller
    end
end)

[jagged minnow]

Did you put you script in a serverscript service ?

[livid estuary]

No

[jagged minnow]

Where did you put it then ?

[livid estuary]

In the part called head

It's for a morph

[jagged minnow]

Alright, it is a server script right ?

[jagged minnow]

local Head = script.Parent -- This is a part you have created in the workspace

Head.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local character = hit.Parent
    if character:IsA("Model") then
     character:ScaleTo(0.792) -- Make the character's size 0.792x smaller
    end
end)

[jagged minnow]

I want to make sure I understand what you want. Every time a player touches a part called "Head", it's character's size is 0.792x smaller ?

[livid estuary]

It works

Thanks
