So recently, I finished a local script handling the animations, and giving the player the velocity whenever they use a m1, or m2 of a move.
i’m not sure how to make the hitbox activating it and deactivating it whenever I want. i’ll send gyazo gifs of the animations
I looked around for youtube videos, but they don’t match my criteria. I want the m2 to have multiple times, similar to Rogue Lineage, so i’m thinking of GetMarkerReachedSignal,

-------Dont know what to do-----------
(Yes there is some unnecessary variables, that is because I forgot to remove them while I was changing how the cooldown worked)
Here’s a list of research on what to do for hitboxes which has been compiled very nicely by @HappyLemonzYT.
Personally I suggest using RotatedRegion3 because of the fact you can rotate the region3 and create a region easier using BaseParts which can lead to easier debugging. The information you send on the remote should only the position on where create the hitbox and it should be sent during the GetMarkerReachedSignal on the client because of animation syncing issues with the server from what I have seen, the rest like damage and size can be handled on the server through a dictionary combo system like for the last frames there will be a large hitbox that deals a lot of damage and such.
I not sure exactly how you have it all setup but if you are wanting a hitbox to only be active for a few seconds you can setup something like this which i have tested in the past
on this you make a connection when they click the mouse for about half a second or until it hits another player then disable the connection until the next click
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local HRP = Character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
local Connection1
Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
-- animate
Connection1 = Hitboxpart.Touched:Connect(function(hit) -- make a connection each time but disconnect when attack is over or they hit someone
local HitPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if HitPlayer and Player ~= HitPlayer then
Connection1:Disconnect() -- disconnects the connection if it hit someone
end
end)
wait(.5) -- the amount of time you want to wait before disabling the touch connection
Connection1:Disconnect() -- disconnects the connection if it hit someone
end)
or you could leave a connection to the hitblock but only let it go through if they are in say a attack/click
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local HRP = Character:WaitForChild('HumanoidRootPart')
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
local Connection1
local Attacking
Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
-- animate
if Attacking then return end -- already attacking don't do it again
Attacking = true
wait(.5)
Attacking = false
end)
Hitboxpart.Touched:Connect(function(hit) -- makes and leaves a live connection
if not Attacking then return end -- if they are not active attacking it will just ignore anything it hits
local HitPlayer = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if HitPlayer and Player ~= HitPlayer then
Attacking = false -- they hit a player so stop the hit detection until next attack
end
end)
you can do this many ways but these are 2 examples this would of course need edited and add some debounces to the attacks or change attack delays
can I get some help with region3? I found a rotated region3 module, Rotated Region 3 Module but I have not worked on hitboxes in my time of developing so I need some more help
Have you experimented with it? First, you CFrame a part that represents the hitbox to where you want it then you check the parts within the region and if they belong to a character like raycasting.
local part --whatever you CFrame it to
local hitboxRegion = RotatedRegion3.FromPart(part) --create hitbox
local partsInRegion = hitboxRegion:FindPartsInRegion3WithIgnoreList(Instance Array ignore, Integer maxParts)
for _,part in pairs(partsInRegion) do
--check if the part belongs to the character via part .Parent
local character = part.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
--damage them lol
end
end
local remotes = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local M1Event = remotes.M1
local M2Event = remotes.M2
M1Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
end)
M2Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
local part = Player.Character["Right Leg"]
part.Anchored = false
part.CanCollide = false
part.Transparency = 1
local hitboxRegion = RotatedRegion3.FromPart(part) --create hitbox
local partsInRegion = hitboxRegion:FindPartsInRegion3WithIgnoreList(Instance Array ignore, Integer maxParts)
for _,part in pairs(partsInRegion) do
local character = part.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
humanoid:TakeDamage(10)
end
end
end)
local remotes = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local M1Event = remotes.M1
local M2Event = remotes.M2
local canAttack = false
M1Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
end)
M2Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(playerWhoFired)
local part = game.ReplicatedStorage.HitBox:Clone()
part.Parent = playerWhoFired.Character["Right Leg"]
part.CFrame = playerWhoFired.Character['Right Leg'].CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-1.3,0)
local Weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", playerWhoFired.Character["Right Leg"])
Weld.Part0 = playerWhoFired.Character["Right Arm"]
Weld.Part1 = part
part.Anchored = false
part.CanCollide = false
part.Transparency = 1
canAttack = true
local function removeattack()
wait(1)
canAttack = false
part:Destroy()
Weld:Destroy()
end
spawn(removeattack)
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent ~= playerWhoFired then
local character = hit.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
humanoid:TakeDamage(3)
end
end
end)
end)
resulting in no errors, and the script working. One last question for the developer forum. How would I disable and enable the hitbox when a getmarkerreachedsignal is hit within the server script? I have never worked with animations in serverscripts, as I do them in localscripts.
This is a hitbox script which makes a hitbox in the right leg, but it activates at the start of the animation. So I want to handle the animation in a serverscript and use a getmarkerreachedsignal to activate and deactivate it.
The animation does play from the server, problem is it’s not dealing damage
local remotes = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local M1Event = remotes.M1
local M2Event = remotes.M2
local canAttack = false
local animation = script.Animation
M1Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
end)
M2Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(playerWhoFired)
local part = game.ReplicatedStorage.HitBox:Clone()
part.Parent = playerWhoFired.Character["Left Leg"]
part.CFrame = playerWhoFired.Character['Left Leg'].CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-1.3,0)
local Weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", playerWhoFired.Character["Right Leg"])
Weld.Part0 = playerWhoFired.Character["Left Leg"]
Weld.Part1 = part
part.Anchored = false
part.CanCollide = false
part.Transparency = 1
local function playAnimationFromServer(character, animation)
local Humanoid = playerWhoFired.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
if Humanoid then
local animation = script.Animation
local animator = Humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
if animator then
local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack:Play()
animationTrack:AdjustSpeed(1.5)
animationTrack:GetMarkerReachedSignal("attack"):Connect(function()
canAttack = true
wait(0.2)
canAttack = false
wait(1.4)
Weld:Destroy()
part:Destroy()
end)
end
end
end
playAnimationFromServer()
local function removeattack()
wait(1)
canAttack = false
part:Destroy()
Weld:Destroy()
end
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent ~= playerWhoFired and canAttack == true then
local character = hit.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
humanoid:TakeDamage(3)
end
end
end)
end)
Nevermind! It was a small misspelling. Heres the full code
local remotes = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local M1Event = remotes.M1
local M2Event = remotes.M2
local canAttack = false
local animation = script.Animation
M1Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
end)
M2Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(playerWhoFired)
local part = game.ReplicatedStorage.HitBox:Clone()
part.Parent = playerWhoFired.Character["Left Leg"]
part.CFrame = playerWhoFired.Character['Left Leg'].CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-1.3,0)
local Weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", playerWhoFired.Character["Right Leg"])
Weld.Part0 = playerWhoFired.Character["Left Leg"]
Weld.Part1 = part
part.Anchored = false
part.CanCollide = false
part.Transparency = 1
local function playAnimationFromServer(character, animation)
local Humanoid = playerWhoFired.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
if Humanoid then
local animation = script.Animation
local animator = Humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
if animator then
local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(animation)
animationTrack:Play()
animationTrack:AdjustSpeed(1.5)
animationTrack:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Attack"):Connect(function()
print("hello")
canAttack = true
wait(0.2)
canAttack = false
wait(1.4)
Weld:Destroy()
part:Destroy()
end)
end
end
end
playAnimationFromServer()
local function removeattack()
wait(1)
canAttack = false
part:Destroy()
Weld:Destroy()
end
part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent ~= playerWhoFired and canAttack == true then
print("yo")
canAttack = false
local character = hit.Parent
local humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if humanoid then
humanoid:TakeDamage(3)
end
end
end)
end)
