#

you can't just go like

#

part.Parent

#

without even initializing it

#

where do you define it

pastel vapor Jun 5, 2025, 12:23 AM

#

wdym define

lyric cape Jun 5, 2025, 12:23 AM

#

pastel vapor wdym define

bru

#

where do you go like

#

part = Instance.new("Part")

#

in your code

#

when do you

#

create the part

#

because in the screenshot you sent you're REFERENCING the part variable

#

but it doesn't show you ever creating it

pastel vapor Jun 5, 2025, 12:23 AM

#

oh i did create it its just off screen

#

part is instance.new("Part")

lyric cape Jun 5, 2025, 12:24 AM

#

send the entire code

pastel vapor Jun 5, 2025, 12:24 AM

#

ok

lyric cape Jun 5, 2025, 12:25 AM

pastel vapor local zombie = script.Parent local part = Instance.new("Part") local attachment ...

you should create part, attachment, and emitter INSIDE

#

of the function

#

not outside

#

so like this

#

zombie.Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
    if zombie.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
        local part = Instance.new("Part")
        part.Parent = workspace
        part.Shape = Enum.PartType.Block
        part.Name = "DeathEffect"
        part.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
        part.Anchored = true
        part.CanCollide = false
        part.Transparency = 1
        part.Position = zombie.Torso.Position

        local attachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
        attachment.Parent = part
        attachment.Name = "Center"

        local emitter = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
        emitter.Enabled = true
        emitter.Parent = attachment
        emitter.Color = ColorSequence.new(zombie.Head.Color)
        emitter.Transparency = NumberSequence.new(0,1)
        emitter.Lifetime = NumberRange.new(1)
        emitter.Size = NumberSequence.new(.2,1.5)
        emitter.SpreadAngle = Vector2.new(360, -360)
        emitter.Rotation = NumberRange.new(-360, 360)
        emitter.Rate = 10
        emitter.Speed = NumberRange.new(5)
        emitter.Texture = "rbxassetid://7216855695"
        emitter.Name = "Emitter"

        task.wait(0.5)
        emitter.Enabled = false
        part:Destroy()
    end
end)

lyric cape you should create part, attachment, and emitter INSIDE

ok ima try it

lyric cape Jun 5, 2025, 12:27 AM

#

and to ensure that it only runs ONCE

#

you can also do

#

local dead = false
zombie.Humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function()
    if zombie.Humanoid.Health <= 0 and not dead then
        dead = true
        local part = Instance.new("Part")
        part.Parent = workspace
        part.Shape = Enum.PartType.Block
        part.Name = "DeathEffect"
        part.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
        part.Anchored = true
        part.CanCollide = false
        part.Transparency = 1
        part.Position = zombie.Torso.Position

        local attachment = Instance.new("Attachment")
        attachment.Parent = part
        attachment.Name = "Center"

        local emitter = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
        emitter.Enabled = true
        emitter.Parent = attachment
        emitter.Color = ColorSequence.new(zombie.Head.Color)
        emitter.Transparency = NumberSequence.new(0,1)
        emitter.Lifetime = NumberRange.new(1)
        emitter.Size = NumberSequence.new(.2,1.5)
        emitter.SpreadAngle = Vector2.new(360, -360)
        emitter.Rotation = NumberRange.new(-360, 360)
        emitter.Rate = 10
        emitter.Speed = NumberRange.new(5)
        emitter.Texture = "rbxassetid://7216855695"
        emitter.Name = "Emitter"

        task.wait(0.5)
        emitter.Enabled = false
        part:Destroy()
    end
end)

#

so it will ONLY ever run once
