enemies will be cloned from serverstorage to game.workspace.mobingame(folder) if you need this info

and maybe id be very thankful if you know how to fix the first npc moved into the abse and the game stops for like 0.25s

no i would be very thankful

Hello

Ik why

First of all, when u assign the variable hmob u are waiting to assign only 1 instance (so one clone)

(And not all the clones)

So same thing for variable mob, btw idk why u used hmob, since u didnt used it in ur script

You want that when u clone a mob from the server storage, its goes to the mobingame folder, and THEN, you will check all the mobs in that folder

To check all the mobs in that folder, the easiest way would be first to convert it to a table, an array of all mobs inside the folders

To do that u can do : lua workspace.mobingame:GetChildren() you can now here have the table of all the mobs inside ur folder

GetChildren gives u all the children of the folder or a instance, and makes it as a table (an array precisely)

So when something is touching, you need to check and get the table of all rigs, and in this table, go and see for key, value in this table if the value is equal to the ennemy, if ye then u code ur things

U want me do the code or u wanna do it urself?

Idk if i explained well or even if its an optimal way but thats working if im not wrong

Btw if u need more explanation dont hesitate

[granite warren]

wait so to sum up what i do wrong is i only check a single mob not all of the folder itself?

i tried getchildren but it just end up destroying all the enemies if only one touches the base

how do i call the children individualy inside the getchildren's table?

[granite warren]

also what do you mean when you mentioned "key" here

i redo the scripts but this time the enemies just dont destroy

i think something is wrong with line "if enemy == mob" or "local mob" but i dont know what is wrong

[granite warren]

oh yeah i think i fixed it but enemies just spam the you lose promt instead of doing it once for eaach enemy but ill make it in a different channel

[spare crow]

Yes

Thats the main and only reason i can see

[spare crow]

I meant a for loop inside the table, u look every onstance in the table and check which one is the same as the instance that touched the base (ennemy)

[spare crow]

Yes obviously

When u do get childrens at the start

It do it immediatly

[granite warren]

so what should i do

[spare crow]

Because when u cloned the rigs ot smthing like that, the script didnt find it cuz it did this action before the cloning

What should you do is

Whne the base is touched

You will crrate a variable

That will get all the children of the folder

Then

You will do a for loop

Inside the table

To check if the ennemy is equal to one of the instances in the folder

So one of the mobs

So u need to local mobs when the base its touched

U understood or no?

If u still dont i can make the script for u

[granite warren]

i think you should make a script for me cause i lowkey dont understand it

but i kinda fixed the problem being mobs cant destroy but i kept warning me it cant find do something but the script works

ill reocrd rq

[spare crow]

U sure u dont even want to try? Im just telling u to :
when the base is touched u will set a variable called mobs, and u will set it to the folder:GetChildren() and then you will do a for loop in table (idk fi u know whats a for loop in table so?) inside this loop you will look if the ennemy = a mob in the table

[granite warren]

wait me a bit ill show u the fixed version

[spare crow]

Its just cuz u can get better if u do it urself, and try, if u cant ill give u the script

[granite warren]

while waiting for u to respond i asked chat gpt and used it in my script

[spare crow]

Ah

[granite warren]

it do works but it kepting warning me about something

i dont know how to fix

[spare crow]

Ok u want me to do the script?

[granite warren]

and mobs spamming you lose once it touches the base

[spare crow]

Copy paste me ur script if yes

[granite warren]

im trying to log into studio it kept kicking me out

[spare crow]

Why?

[granite warren]

i got in

[spare crow]

So u want me to do the scriptv

?

[granite warren]

the error and touch spamming

[spare crow]

Copy paste me the script pls @granite warren

** You are now Level 7! **

[granite warren]

oh yeah mb

local base = script.Parent
local basehp = 3
local hmob = game.Workspace.mobingame:WaitForChild("Rig"):WaitForChild("Humanoid") -- enemies will be cloned to mobingame folder
local mob = game.Workspace.mobingame:GetChildren()
local mobfolder = game.Workspace.mobingame

base.Touched:Connect(function(enemytouchedbase)
local enemy = enemytouchedbase.Parent and enemytouchedbase

if enemy:IsDescendantOf(mobfolder)  then-- if enemy = the children inside the mobingame folder then do this

    enemy:Destroy()
    print("enemy has touched base")
    basehp = basehp - 1
    print("the base health is now:", basehp)

    
    if basehp <= 0 then
            print("you lose")
    end
end

end)

[spare crow]

Im on mobile so it will be a bit hard but i should be able i wait

[granite warren]

im going to sleep rn so you can have as much time writing your script as you want

ill respond to ur messages when u wake up

bye g

[spare crow]

local base = script.Parent
local basehp = 3

base.Touched:Connect(function(partThatIsTouching)
    local enemy = partThatIsTouching.Parent
    local mobs = game.Workspace.mobingame:GetChildren()
    for _, mob in ipairs(mobs) do
        if enemy == mob then
            mob:Destroy()
            print("enemy has touched base")
            basehp = basehp - 1
            print("the base health is now:", basehp)
        end
    end
    if basehp <= 0 then
        print("you lose")
    end
end)

should be working
