Collision group not always working

[paper eagle]

I used collision groups foe my tycoon so the dropper part can't collide with eachothers. Sometimes when I launch the game with a new datastore, the first dropper start dropping the parts but they stop colliding with the conveyor?!! Anyone knows why? Thanks

[hardy crane]

You didnt set up CollisionGroups Properly.

Can i see the collision groups?

[paper eagle]

oh yeah it's fixed It was a weird probleme due to a union lol

[paper eagle]

but I have another question if you can help me with

[paper eagle]

ok

how would you do that:

[bright axle]

?

[paper eagle]

since in my game there will be 500+ moving parts, the network would be jammed. So instead, client will run those parts and the server is only so people can't exploit. The server's part will be giving money to the player.

The server script is done

the client is almost done but I'm stuck there for 2h

Icreate the client side part

but I need to do something to their cash.Value get upgraded when they touch the upgrader and destroy them when they hit the part collector

[paper eagle]

and then I need to update the Gui so that the player can see the new cash value

[bright axle]

Update the players money on the server
Destroy the client side parts on the client

What is the problem?

You can use a GetPropertyChanged signal on the leaderstats cash value to update the gui automatically when their cash changes.

[paper eagle]

yeah the money is getting updated right. the server script is perfect.

[paper eagle]

I want to track the value of the single drop part

it has a value as a child

[bright axle]

Give the part an attribute of its value then

[paper eagle]

yes

wait let me show you

I need to locate the upgrader and poart collector:

I'mm so lost

okok

[paper eagle]

see here

dropEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(items, spawner, OwnerValue)

local drop = dropperItems:FindFirstChild(items)
local scriptClone = script:FindFirstChild("LocalScript"):Clone()
local cloneGui = billBoardGui:Clone()
local dropClone = drop:Clone()
dropClone.Parent = game.Workspace.Tycoons.DropperParts
dropClone.CollisionGroup = "Drops"

local ownerValue = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
ownerValue.Value = OwnerValue
ownerValue.Parent = dropClone
ownerValue.Name = "OwnerValue"

dropClone:PivotTo(spawner)

local cashValue = Instance.new("IntValue", dropClone)
cashValue.Value = 5
cashValue.Name = "CashValue"


cloneGui.Parent = dropClone
cloneGui.Frame.TextLabel.Text = "$"..cashValue.Value
scriptClone.Parent = dropClone


Debris:AddItem(dropClone, 15)

for i, tycoon in pairs(game.Workspace.Tycoons:GetChildren()) do

    if tycoon.Name == "Tycoon" then
        
        if tycoon.Values.OwnerValue == OwnerValue then
            
            local partCollector = tycoon.MainItems.PartCollector
            
            if tycoon.Purchases:FindFirstChild("Upgrader") then
                local upgrader = tycoon.Purchases:FindFirstChild("Upgrader").Upgrader
                
            end
            break
            
            
        end
        
    end
    
    
    
end


partCollector.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit:FindFirstChild("CashValue") then
        hit:Destroy()
    end
    
end)

end)

why isn't it working

not destroyibng the part

** You are now Level 11! **

[whole summit]

u gotta do hit.parent which is the character

idk what ru tryna do

tho

[bright axle]

Are you using attributes or values?

[bright axle]

That’s not what he’s trying to do.

[paper eagle]

😂 hit is the dropper part

Not a player

[paper eagle]

I'm not sure of the difference, but I think I'm using values

[bright axle]

If you aren't using object:GetAttribute and SetAttribute then most likely yeah

[bright axle]

Besides, it's the highest likelihood that the part isn't being deleted due to "CashValue" not being found.

for i, tycoon in pairs(game.Workspace.Tycoons:GetChildren()) do
        if tycoon.Name == "Tycoon" then
            if tycoon.Values.OwnerValue == OwnerValue then
                local partCollector = tycoon.MainItems.PartCollector
                if tycoon.Purchases:FindFirstChild("Upgrader") then
                    local upgrader = tycoon.Purchases:FindFirstChild("Upgrader").Upgrader
                end
                break
            end
        end
    end
    partCollector.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
        if hit:FindFirstChild("CashValue") then
            hit:Destroy()
        end
    end)

Why are you declaring the upgrader variable but never using it?
Another thing is that here "partCollector" won't exist as you declare it within the scope of the loop

[paper eagle]

The upgrader would 2x de cash value then the text label in the gui of the part would show the new cash.value

In serverscript, I find it easy to do, but in local script it's never working

[paper eagle]

Attribute is better than value?

Thanks a lot for helping me btw 🫡

I changed my script a bit yesturday. Once I get back home I'll show you

[paper eagle]

Ok I'm back

[bright axle]

Not one is better than the other, it depends on your use case

[paper eagle]

can you send a folder in a remote from server to client?

[paper eagle]

a folder that already exist

[bright axle]

You can send a table/dictionary

[paper eagle]

not a folder?

[paper eagle]

lmao

it's not working

ok

[paper eagle]

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")

local dropEvent = ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("RemoteEvent"):FindFirstChild("SpawnDrop")

local dropperItems = ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("DropperItems")
local billBoardGui = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("BillboardGui")

dropEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(items, spawner, partCollector, upgrader)

local drop = dropperItems:FindFirstChild(items)
local dropClone = drop:Clone()

local scriptClone = script:FindFirstChild("LocalScript"):Clone()

local cloneGui = billBoardGui:Clone()

dropClone.Parent = workspace.Tycoons.DropperParts
dropClone.CollisionGroup = "Drops"
dropClone:PivotTo(spawner)

local cashValue = Instance.new("IntValue", dropClone)
cashValue.Value = 5
cashValue.Name = "CashValue"


cloneGui.Parent = dropClone
cloneGui.Frame.TextLabel.Text = "$"..cashValue.Value
scriptClone.Parent = dropClone


Debris:AddItem(dropClone, 15)

partCollector.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit == dropClone then
        hit:Destroy()
    end
end)

if upgrader ~= nil then
    upgrader.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
        if hit == dropClone then
            hit:FindFirstChild("CashValue").Value = 2 * hit:FindFirstChild("CashValue").Value
        end
    end)
end

end)

this one is working

only one thing isn't working

thats the child script:
repeat wait() until script.Parent:FindFirstChild("CashValue")
script.Parent:WaitForChild("CashValue").Changed:Connect(function()
script.Parent.BillboardGui.Frame.TextLabel.Text = "$"..script.Parent:WaitForChild("CashValue").Value
end)

it's not updating the Text when the cash value change

please @bright axle I don't know what's wrong

The value really change and the script is in the part

[bright axle]

don't use repeat wait

WaitForChild already yields for u

until its found

[paper eagle]

it does not work with that too

[paper eagle]

whitout that

it's weird since the value geet changed

they are both localscript if that can help

[bright axle]

what?
