2 things

[dense tartan]

1 how would i locate a player in a local or regular script
2 how would i make a function that happens when a part gets touched by a specific part?

any help would be loved

locate a player?

you mean like how to reference a player or get a player value?

and 2. use .Touched event, sometimes some objects like model dont have .Touched so just beware of that

and then when you use .Touched, you'll get "otherpart" as the parameter value

the other part is what touched the part

so you can check by using if OtherPart.Name == "TargetPart" then

both

i do use the touch event

but lets say i want object A to execute a function if ONLY object C touches it

[hardy cargo]

Use .Touched so like

local objectA = script.Parent
local objectC = workspace.ObjectC

objectA.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit == objectC then
-- your function
end
end)

local sword = game.StarterPack.Tool.Handle
local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
local block = game.Workspace.block

sword.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit == block then
print("Don't touch that dial!")
end
end)

like this??

[hardy cargo]

Ig but it's a sword maybe u want that it only detects the part that touched it when you swing?

[dense tartan]

sure

also the code doesnt print anything

[hardy cargo]

Oh cus

Don't do game.Starterpack its not the tool that the player is holding, it's just a copy of it

[dense tartan]

oh

[hardy cargo]

So maybe do

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local tool = plr.Character:WaitForChild("Tool") -- the equipped tool
local sword = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
local block = workspace:WaitForChild("Block")

sword.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit == block then
print("Don't touch that dial!")
end
end)

let me try

YAY

[gleaming rain]

** You are now Level 1! **

[dense tartan]

it works

[frail wraith]

congrat

[frail wraith]

you can also do that

but that only works if you have the reference of the object
