Help needed splitting combat script into 2

(I’m a beginner scripter so please excuse any rookie errors)

Hello, so I’ve returned to a client sided script i made a few months ago (I’m pretty sure I used a tutorial for it) and realised some parts of it need to be server sided, for example the m6d section, but I’m unsure of how to go about splitting the code in two.

p.s I dont get any errors, but once I’ve swung the weapon it deletes itself, and its because of the line a:Destroy()(I need to put this part into a server sided script for it to work I’m pretty sure)

CODE:


local canDamage = false

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer

local character = player.Character

if not character or not character.Parent then

character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

end

local m6d

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()

local a:Weld = character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm"):WaitForChild("RightGrip")

m6d = Instance.new("Motor6D")

m6d.Parent = character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")

m6d.Name = "RightGrip"

m6d.Part0 = a.Part0

m6d.Part1 = a.Part1

m6d.C0 = a.C0

m6d.C1 = a.C1

a:Destroy()

end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()

m6d:Destroy()

end)

local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

local Animator = humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")

local function onTouch(otherPart)

local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

if not humanoid then

return

end

if humanoid.Parent ~= tool.Parent and canDamage then

humanoid:TakeDamage(5)

end

canDamage = false

end

local slashAnim = Instance.new("Animation")

slashAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://11995880420"

local slashAnimTrack = Animator:LoadAnimation(slashAnim)

local function slash(input, _gameProcessed)

if not (tool.Parent == character) then

return

end

slashAnimTrack:Play()

canDamage = true

end

tool.Activated:Connect(slash)

tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(onTouch)local tool = script.Parent
local canDamage = false

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
if not character or not character.Parent then
	character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
end

local m6d

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	local a:Weld = character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm"):WaitForChild("RightGrip")
	m6d = Instance.new("Motor6D")
	m6d.Parent = character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
	m6d.Name = "RightGrip"
	m6d.Part0 = a.Part0
	m6d.Part1 = a.Part1
	m6d.C0 = a.C0
	m6d.C1 = a.C1
	a:Destroy()
end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	m6d:Destroy()
end)

local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Animator = humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")

local function onTouch(otherPart)
	local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	if not humanoid then
		return
	end
	if humanoid.Parent ~= tool.Parent and canDamage then
		humanoid:TakeDamage(5)
	end
	canDamage = false
end

local slashAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
slashAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://11995880420"
local slashAnimTrack = Animator:LoadAnimation(slashAnim)


local function slash(input, _gameProcessed)
	if not (tool.Parent == character) then
		return
	end
		slashAnimTrack:Play()
		canDamage = true
	end

tool.Activated:Connect(slash)
tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(onTouch)```
