wcs_character.DamageTaken:Connect(function(container)
      humanoid:TakeDamage(container.Damage)
end)

When I use multiple parameters in Skill:Start() only the first one prints its value when received by Skill:OnStartServer(), the rest print nil even if they aren’t. Is this intended behavior? The documentation says “OnStartServer(params)” which to me implies it accepts multiple.

#148

This is intentional due to lua types, but will be changed in the next version

Please use Timer:getCurrentEndDateTime().UnixTimestampMillis for the skills TimerEndTimestamp state so we can track when cooldowns are over to the millisecond.

#150

new version is using GetServerTimeNow() (ig you can change it manually right now)

What’s the best way to handle inputs with movesets? I want to handle moveset skills universally rather than on a per moveset basis but it seems dictionaries in luau are randomly sorted so i’m not sure what to do.

#152

Is WCS.Character.CharacterCreated only called for the local player’s character on the client?

#153

The statuses only change the humanoid properties like walkSpeed and JumpPower on the client, i mean, it doesn’t replicate to server, is this normal?, i am even requiring and using them on server, but it still doesn’t replicates

#154

yeah.
30charlimitsssssssssssss

#155

yes, this is intended behavior.

#156

You can do something similar:

local keys = {Enum.KeyCode.One, Enum.KeyCode.Two}
function processInput(input)
    local index = table.find(keys, input.KeyCode)
    if not index then return end

    local constructor = MovesetObj.Skills[index]
    local skill = wcs_char:GetSkillFromConstructor(constructor)
end

MovesetObj can be retrieved using the following apis:

how do you send constructor args in ApplyMoveset() or ApplySkillsFromMoveset()?

#158

currently impossible, i’m still thinking about the design of this in v2

#159

any estimates of when v2 coming?

#160

relatively soon, within the next week if I’ll have enough free time
progress on v2 mainly can be seen here, if anyone is interested: GitHub - wad4444/WCS at v2

Excited for v2! Just started using refx and WCS to implement combat in my game.
Honestly the two best resources in devforum.
If you don’t mind, I am not very well-versed in English too, I ask that you just put all of your documentary into google translate and paste it in so people that struggle with English have a chance.
If you do not that is fine but I would love that!
Will show my progress when I have literally anything done.

Thank you wAD,

I am probably going to wait for a possible translation into Arabic because I cannot figure out what to do😭
This motivated me to improve my reading skills.
I also had an idea!
It would be nice if there was a example “skill”, “status effect” and handlers to make it easier for people to use this resource.
I don’t think it would be too hard, I only suggested it because it took me 1 hour to setup up basic things lol
Ref x is going well because I understand replication a lot more
I basically don’t understand anything I’m only 2 months in development.
Made a dash ability using refx and wcs.
Amazing handling!
Thank you for your resource again,

#163

I’m not planning to do an arabic translation, sorry. However, I might release an open source game in the future using WCS, that would act as a good example.

That is ok :+1:,
A open source game sounds VERY cool!
That would help out a lot of people thank you wAD!
