Alright so im trying to make a combat system or something. and im trying to make a script where if you click. the script checks if the thingy the tool hit was a player, and if it was a player. then it deals damage. heres the damage
local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
– the thingy im tryna figure out
end)
end)
Do you want the script to check if you click on a player, or if your physical tool touches the player?
if my physical tool touches the player.
Can you show me the tool and it’s children in a screenshot so I can help you better?
okay. here ya go
the “event” script is the script where is the thingy im tryna make
great english btw (very great)
Do you want to detect if Fist2, Handle, or both, touches the part?
both. (because fist2 is like it sounds, the second fist. and the handle is the first fist
god damn my english is pretty bad lol.
Every Tool has a Handle in it, the part. You can simply check the distance between the players.
A Touched function wouldn’t be very efficient because it’s buggy.
Try this:
task.wait(5)
while task.wait(0.05) do
for _,character in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do
if (character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position-Tool.Handle.CFrame.Position).Magnitude <= 3 then
character.Humanoid:TakeDamage(1)
end
end
end
Every 0.05 seconds, it checks every single character in-game, and checks if the distance between the character and the tool is 3 studs or below, then it deals 1 damage per that 0.05 seconds if in that radius.
lemme try it. (i hate the 30 text thingy)
You could also do:
local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local Fist1 = tool.Fist1 --Indexing Handle/Fist1
local Fist2 = tool.Fist2 --Indexing Fist2
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
Fist1.Touched:Connect(function(hit) -- checks if fist1 is touched (hit is the part it touched)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
--Code that fires when touched
end
end)
Fist2.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then --checks if fist2 is touched (hit is the part it touched)
--Code that fires when touched
end
end)
end)
end)
The script checks if the fists touch another player, and then runs the code inside the .Touched function. It still works.
I wouldn’t use a Touched event, because it’s very inconsistent, especially if you’re doing a combat game.
oh yeah i got 1 thingy to do, because what im also trying to figure out is how to deal damage. because in the script it says " --Code that fires when touched" but i don’t have the code. so thats what im tryna figure out.
I already did that for you. I ran :TakeDamage() on the Humanoid. Run my code, it’ll work.
Then you would replace that part with:
hit.Humanoid:TakeDamage(AmountOfDmgHere)
i know but for some reason the dummies are randomly stuck under the ground and i cant test the thingy on em
Invite a friend. Do you need me to test it?
Raise the dummies up in studio, simple…?
