So, basically I’m working on a new tool system on my game BloodLine, and I need some help with something. In Aethelbeorn [ Before the owner get exterminated for stealing a Medkit mesh from someone that I don’t know the name. ], it had a melee system that when you hold MouseButton1, it plays a swing animation and pause it, when you stop holding MouseButton1, it resume the swing animation, if a player hits the tool, it gives damage. I know how to play an animation and give damage if you activate a tool and something hit it ‘ToolMesh’, but I don’t know how to check if a player holds the MouseButton1 until the animation finishs, and if the animation finishs and the player stop holding MouseButton1, it play another swing animation. Here is a example:

You can basically use

–Server
Tool.Activated–Basically mouseButton1
Tool.Deactivated–Mayhave done spell mistake

those are more server Friendly

you can also use UserInputService

--Local Script
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")--Spelling Mistakes May Exist

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(UIT)
    if UIT == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1
          --FireServer somthing like that
    end
end)

i Prefer to use serverside

here is a sample


function Slash()
--Play Animation and damage stuff
end)

--Caster
local Cast = false
local On = false
local Off = false

--Activate
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if Cast == false then
				
		--Debounce
		if On == false  then
			On = true
			
			Cast = true
			
			repeat
				Slash()
				print("Slashes")
				wait(1)--Delay until it plays again
			until Cast == false
			
			wait(0.01)
			On = false
			--AttackDeb = false
		end
	end
end)
--

Tool.Deactivated:Connect(function()
	if Cast == true then
		
		if Off == false then
			Off = true
			
			Cast = false
			
			wait(0.01)
			Off = false
		end
	end
end)
--

As for the different Animation it plays randomly use randomizer code

Hum, okay. I’ll try that out and I’ll tell you if it works.
