Any more efficient way to detect for Humanoid collision on a part using a Local Script?

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want to use a Local Script to detect for Character Collision in a part for a “Gradual Health Reduction system”

  2. What is the issue?
    My current system detects collisions but the hitboxes are semi-broken, the character hits the collision hitbox but it sometimes doesn’t reduce the stat.

if collisions are the issue then I don’t think the script is the problem, it’s probably the part itself. roblox is kinda known for awful collision boxes when it comes to unions and meshes so if it involves any of that then that could be the issue.

All hitboxes are block parts, do you want me to send the script for the collision detection?

It would really help if you sent the code that detects the collision.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
local C = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait(1)
local H = C:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local area = game.Workspace.KillElements
local toggle = false

while true do wait(0.05)
for i, section in pairs(area:GetChildren()) do
	local pos1,pos2 = (section.Position - (section.Size / 2)),(section.Position + (section.Size / 2))
	local region = Region3.new(pos1,pos2)
	local playersFound = game.Workspace:FindPartsInRegion3(region)
	
	for i, playersInArea in pairs(playersFound) do
		if playersInArea:FindFirstAncestor(player.Name) then
			toggle = true
			if section.Name == "SlowDamage" and script.Parent.hasStarted.Value == true then
				script.Edibility.Value = script.Edibility.Value - 0.15
			elseif section.Name == "MediumDamage" and script.Parent.hasStarted.Value == true then
				script.Edibility.Value = script.Edibility.Value - 0.3
			elseif section.Name == "FastDamage" and script.Parent.hasStarted.Value == true then
				script.Edibility.Value = script.Edibility.Value - 0.6
			elseif section.Name == "InstantKill" and script.Parent.hasStarted.Value == true then
				script.Edibility.Value = 0
			end
			wait(0.05)
		else
			toggle = false
		end
	end
end
end

I don’t know if this code is efficient.
