ive been trying to make a granade launcher whit a really low velocity bullet and ive came into a problem, it doesnt seem like the explosion.hit event is working at all
ive looked into the dev hub and couldnt find anything useful about it so i decided to ask for help
current code:
game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.FireGL.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, MuzzlePos, mousePos, damage, limbDMG, CF, muzvel, cam)
GLbullet = effects.GranadeShell:Clone()
print("fired")
local sound = player.Character.Torso:FindFirstChild("GLFIRE")
local GLbullet2 = effects.GranadeShell:Clone()
if sound then
sound:Play()
end
GLbullet.Parent = game.Workspace.Munitions
local origin = MuzzlePos
local direction = (mousePos - origin)
GLbullet.Position = MuzzlePos
GLbullet.Velocity = cam.LookVector * muzvel
local exploded = false
local function customExplosion(position, radius, maxDamage)
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
explosion.BlastPressure = 0
explosion.DestroyJointRadiusPercent = 0
explosion.BlastRadius = radius
explosion.Position = GLbullet.Position
local modelsHit = {}
explosion.Hit:Connect(function(part, distance)
local parentModel = part.Parent
if parentModel then
if modelsHit[parentModel] then
return
end
modelsHit[parentModel] = true
local humanoid = parentModel:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
if player.Team or game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter() == nil then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
elseif player.Team and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel) and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel).Team ~= player.Team then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
end
end
end
end)
explosion.Parent = game.Workspace
explosion.AncestryChanged:Connect(function()
if not explosion.Parent then
explosion:Destroy()
end
end)
end
GLbullet.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if exploded ~= true then
if not GLbullet.Velocity then
wait(0.1)
customExplosion(Vector3.new(GLbullet.Position), 15, 100)
GLbullet:Destroy()
end
end
end)
end)

heres the video if anyone asks, and yes ive tried playing it whit other people and it still dint work, ive also tried deleting the GetPlayerFromCharacter() stuff and dint work still
about these the first one is for when for example a rig is hit its for testing porpuses, the second one is anti team kill i couldnt fit everything together in one block
ive parented the explosion to workspace and its still not working somehow, ive set up prints to see whats wrong and apparently the hit function appears not to be working
The second code block will never fire because it says player.Team and, and the first says player.Team or
Can I see your new code (since it is now parented to workspace)
local exploded = false
local function customExplosion(position, radius, maxDamage)
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion", workspace)
explosion.BlastPressure = 0
explosion.DestroyJointRadiusPercent = 0
explosion.BlastRadius = radius
explosion.Position = GLbullet.Position
local modelsHit = {}
explosion.Hit:Connect(function(part, distance)
print("hit")
local parentModel = part.Parent
if parentModel then
if modelsHit[parentModel] then
return
end
modelsHit[parentModel] = true
local humanoid = parentModel:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
if player.Team or game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter() == nil then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
elseif player.Team and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel) and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel).Team ~= player.Team then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
end
end
end
end)
explosion.Parent = game.Workspace
explosion.AncestryChanged:Connect(function()
if not explosion.Parent then
explosion:Destroy()
end
end)
end
GLbullet.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if exploded ~= true then
if not GLbullet.Velocity then
wait(0.1)
customExplosion(Vector3.new(GLbullet.Position), 15, 100)
GLbullet:Destroy()
end
end
end)
end)
ive used the print() function and it seems like the .hit event is not firing as nothing comes out in the output edit: heres the output
the “fired” prints are when the grande launcher fires and theres supposed to be a “hit” when the explosion hits anything, nothing comes out
yes, ive made a .touched event on the shell later on to detect when the bullet is it, i wont use fasct cast because its a really low velocity bullet as i said
GLbullet.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if exploded ~= true then
if not GLbullet.Velocity then
wait(0.1)
customExplosion(Vector3.new(GLbullet.Position), 15, 100)
GLbullet:Destroy()
end
end
end)
end)
i have the velocity detection to make sure it actually hit something otherwise it would explode the other shells that are mid air, if it dint fire i wouldnt see the explosion graphics beacuse ive done them in a seperate script that affects all explosion instances
yep but i think i figured it out, it was the “if velocity was interfering”
local exploded = false
local function customExplosion(position, radius, maxDamage)
print("exploded")
local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion", workspace)
explosion.BlastPressure = 0
explosion.DestroyJointRadiusPercent = 0
explosion.BlastRadius = radius
explosion.Position = GLbullet.Position
local modelsHit = {}
explosion.Hit:Connect(function(part, distance)
local parentModel = part:FindFirstAncestorWhichIsA("Model")
if parentModel then
if modelsHit[parentModel] then
return
end
modelsHit[parentModel] = true
local humanoid = parentModel:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
if game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel) == nil then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
elseif player.Team and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel) and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(parentModel).Team ~= player.Team then
local distanceFactor = distance / explosion.BlastRadius
distanceFactor = 1 - distanceFactor
humanoid:TakeDamage(maxDamage * distanceFactor)
end
end
end
end)
explosion.Parent = game.Workspace
explosion.AncestryChanged:Connect(function()
if not explosion.Parent then
explosion:Destroy()
end
end)
end
GLbullet.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if exploded ~= true then
customExplosion(Vector3.new(GLbullet.Position), 15, 100)
end
end)
end)
this is my fix, at the cost of the granade shells exploding mid air
