im trying to make it unanchor all the parts inside of the model but its not working

[flat warren]

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local click = game.Workspace.Map.LockedDoors.Lock.Locked:WaitForChild("Cube").ClickDetector

local function unanchorAllChildren()
    local lockModel = workspace.Map.LockedDoors:FindFirstChild("Lock")
    if lockModel then
        local modelsToCheck = {"Locked", "Chain"}
        for _, modelName in ipairs(modelsToCheck) do
            local model = lockModel:FindFirstChild(modelName)
            if model then
                for _, child in model:GetDescendants() do
                    if child:IsA("MeshPart") then
                        child.Anchored = false
                    end
                end
            else
                warn(modelName .. " model not found in Lock")
            end
        end
    else
        warn("Lock model not found in LockedDoors")
    end
end

if click then
    click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
        local key = player.Backpack:FindFirstChild("Key100M")
        if key then 
            unanchorAllChildren()
        end    
    end)    
end

model:GetDescendants() should be model:GetChildren() I think that should resolve your issue

[flat warren]

i tried that and then tried descendants but it dosnt work

[lyric hatch]

are you trying to unanchor the character model or a door?

[flat warren]

im trying to unanchor the lock and the chain so it falls down

[lyric hatch]

is the entire model not unanchoring or only parts

[flat warren]

nothing is unanchoring

want me to give you a screen recording?

[lyric hatch]

sure

is there an error message?

[flat warren]

idk how to get it so its in discord

[flat warren]

no

[lyric hatch]

can I see the hierarchy for the model

[flat warren]

is this was you were looking for?

[lyric hatch]

yeah

 if lockModel then
        local locked = Lock:FindFirstChild("Locked"):GetChildren -- Gets children of locked model
        local chain = Lock:FindFirstChild("Chain"):GetChildren -- Gets children of chain model
        locked.Anchored = false -- Unanchores
        chain.Anchored = false -- Unahchores
else
        warn(modelName .. " model not found in Lock")
end

this should work but there might be something that doesn't..

lmk : )

@flat warren

[flat warren]

okay lemme test this out man tysm

[lyric hatch]

don't thank me yet, gotta see if it works

[flat warren]

theres errors

[lyric hatch]

hover over, what does it say

oh wait, sorry! replace "Lock" with lockModel

[lyric hatch]

does that resolve? or still there

[flat warren]

cant you not use : after ()?

[lyric hatch]

lemme test this

[flat warren]

would this be better ?

nope it would mb

[lyric hatch]

um, ok :GetChildren should have () after mb

but um, I'm trying a simpler version and it's not unanchoring so we've come full circle Dx

[flat warren]

lol thanks for trying

wait is the problem that i have it in startgui?

[lyric hatch]

nah this aint done till I get this 🙏

no that shouldnt be an issue

the issue is it can't locate the "anchored" from the list of parts but it should be able to cuz there's no error

[flat warren]

ik i was trying to figure out this problem for days

[raven wagon]

this is not complete code, and bigger than just forgetting (), you're trying to set .anchored on a table instead of any parts. getchildren gives a table of parts. wut u doin

[lyric hatch]

shut your squiggle diggle I got it

local mainModel = workspace.MainModel
if mainModel then
    local mainModelChildren = mainModel:FindFirstChild("Model"):GetChildren()
    print(mainModelChildren)
    for i, ChildrenCount in ipairs(mainModelChildren) do
        ChildrenCount.Anchored = false -- finds the anchored property in the tabled parts and sets it to false
    end
end

you'll have to rename stuff to make it work for your script @flat warren but this does work

[raven wagon]

disabling .anchored on a networked part doesn't seem to awaken its physics object, probably because most of the time they belong to the server. basically, do the unanchoring on the server otherwise it'll behave in weird ways

[lyric hatch]

the code is for a door that shouldn't be accessed by everyone if they don't have the key. It's purely cosmetic when it unanchors

[daring river]

** You are now Level 4! **

[raven wagon]

and by weird, i mean weird like this. this is just a truss i unanchored on the client and pushed it over, but its anchored on the server.

[lyric hatch]

looks fine to me

I think he wants the door to unanchor and fall through the floor so this wouldn't be an issue either way

[flat warren]

yea it didnt work

[full carbon]

What are you even tryan do?

[lyric hatch]

is it on a localscript or script

[flat warren]

unanchor all the parts inside of a model

[lyric hatch]

cuz local doesn't seem to work

but a normal script does

[flat warren]

i dont want it to be a server script because i want it to be only seen by the person that unlocks it

[full carbon]

local model = game.Workspace.ModelName

for _, d in pairs(mode:GetDescendants()) do
    if d:IsA("BasePart") then
      d.Anchored = false
    end
end

this is the most simplest script to unanchor every parts on a model

[lyric hatch]

noo! you stole my work!

and made it bettter! how could you

[raven wagon]

only need to check isa basepart

it captures parts, unions, and meshparts on its own

[full carbon]

ah fair enough

[lyric hatch]

@raven wagon how long have you been coding on studio

[full carbon]

people said basepart was just a mesh part itself

so

🤷‍♂️

[lyric hatch]

mb I did not mean to ping the other guy

[raven wagon]

ye i not the only one with this name

surprisingly

[full carbon]

pyro fyre

🔥

[raven wagon]

over a year at this point, roblox only

many more years on other projects

[lyric hatch]

zamn. I'mma be just like you, geeking out over roblox code!! (give me a few months)

[raven wagon]

roblox code sucks i have to make my own replication system

coz roblox doesn't have one that can do prediction properly

[lyric hatch]

wym replication system

[raven wagon]

the thing that keeps server and clients all in sync and seeing the same world at the same time

[lyric hatch]

ooh yeah that is so ass

is it a ping problem? ik other games generally peak at 25-30 ping while roblox averages 60-150

[raven wagon]

it's not just ping but yes ping mostly

[lyric hatch]

yeah I can see why you'd want to script your own Dx

[flat warren]

My internet is literally so shit it makes me wanna kill myself

[lyric hatch]

r e a l

but only on pvp games

[flat warren]

I can’t load Roblox studio I gotta type on discord on my phone

[lyric hatch]

oh it's so over for you 💀

[raven wagon]

nah it applies to pve too, see studio has 0 ping. the latency you're seeing is actually physics replication, which is intentionally delayed by about 50ms, have to account for that too

[lyric hatch]

ummm.. are you sure?

[raven wagon]

yes

[lyric hatch]

I think studio has ping

[raven wagon]

pretty sure that number includes the physics replication delay

if you do player:getnetworkping() in studio it returns 0

coz there is no ping

[lyric hatch]

that makes sense then

[raven wagon]

anyway this thread is about your anchoring thing, not this

peace

[lyric hatch]

this isn't even my thread 😭

[flat warren]

do yall know how to fix this 23:22:24.024 Cube is not a valid member of Model "Workspace.Map.LockedDoors.Lock.Locked" - Client - LocalScript:2

my cube is part of thelocked model

[raven wagon]

waitforchild

[flat warren]

@full carbon this didnt work idk whats going on ```
local click = game.Workspace.Map.LockedDoors.Lock.Locked:WaitForChild("Cube").ClickDetector

click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
local lockmodel = game.Workspace.Map.LockedDoors.Lock.Chain

for _, d in pairs(lockmodel:GetDescendants()) do
    if d:IsA("Part") or d:IsA("MeshPart") then
        d.Anchored = false
    end
end

end)```

[flat warren]

thank you

[full carbon]

whats the syntax error?

[flat warren]

there is no error

It’s studio just bugging?

Is*

[mighty ermine]

i never expected someone else to have a similar name to me either dw 😭

[flat warren]

Lurking 🥀

[flat warren]

should i use a remote event to do the unanchoring @everyone

[full carbon]

are u deadass?

[flat warren]

Yea

[flint sundial]

who tf do you think you are
