How do I can replace .Touched to RayCast (desc.)

[Nextinel2008 (Nextinel2)]

Hi! I wanna make “.Touched”/“.TouchEnded” as RayCast from Attachments:

I have already done “.Touched”:

local v = script.Parent
local touched = {}

while wait() do
	for _, att:Attachment in pairs(v:GetChildren()) do
		if att:IsA("Attachment") then
			local params = RaycastParams.new()
			params.FilterDescendantsInstances = {}
			params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude

			local ray = workspace:Raycast(att.Position+v.Position, att.CFrame.UpVector*100, params)

			if ray ~= nil and ray.Instance ~= nil then
				local char:Model = ray.Instance.Parent
				local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)

				if plr ~= nil and not table.find(touched, plr.Name) then
					print(plr.Name.." touched")
					table.insert(touched, plr.Name)
					game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.OpenFrame:FireClient(plr, v.Name, true)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

So, how do I can make “.TouchEnded”?

1. Create a .TouchEnded Event:

• Similar to how you connected the .Touched event, create a new event handler for .TouchEnded.
• Use the TouchEnded event to detect when a player stops touching the attachment.

2. Disconnect the Event:

• Inside the .TouchEnded event handler, you’ll want to disconnect the .Touched event.
• This ensures that the .Touched event doesn’t continue firing after the player stops touching the attachment.

Here’s an example of how you can modify your existing code to include .TouchEnded:

Lua

local v = script.Parent
local touched = {}

while wait() do
	for _, att:Attachment in pairs(v:GetChildren()) do
		if att:IsA("Attachment") then
			local params = RaycastParams.new()
			params.FilterDescendantsInstances = {}
			params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude

			local ray = workspace:Raycast(att.Position + v.Position, att.CFrame.UpVector * 100, params)

			if ray ~= nil and ray.Instance ~= nil then
				local char:Model = ray.Instance.Parent
				local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)

				if plr ~= nil and not table.find(touched, plr.Name) then
					print(plr.Name .. " touched")
					table.insert(touched, plr.Name)
					game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.OpenFrame:FireClient(plr, v.Name, true)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

-- Add the .TouchEnded event handler
att.TouchEnded:Connect(function()
	-- Perform any necessary actions when touch ends
	-- For example, reset state or stop an animation
	print("Touch ended")
	
	-- Disconnect the .Touched event to prevent further firing
	att.Touched:Disconnect()
end)

Remember to replace the placeholder comments with your actual logic for handling the .TouchEnded event. You can adjust the behavior inside the .TouchEnded handler based on your specific requirements.

hope that helps

Nah, I mean, I dont wanna use .Touched and .TouchEnded. I wanna replace it to RayCast and tables

Before we continue, seeing that you fire OpenFrame signal on touch, is there a particular reason you are not using Touched and TouchEnded, or spatial query like GetPartsInPart() and GetPartBoundsInBox()?

Sample (spatial query in an invisible box)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local v = script.Parent
local _detected = {}
local touching = {}

local params = OverlapParams.new()
params.FilterDescendantsInstances = {}
params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude

while true do
	local parts = workspace:GetPartBoundsInBox(v.CFrame, v.Size, params)
	table.clear(_detected)
	
	-- Collect players currently touching the box
	for _,part in parts do
		local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
		if player then
			_detected[player] = true
		end
	end
	
	-- Reconcile the list of touching players
	for _,player in Players:GetPlayers() do
		local i = table.find(touching, player)
		if _detected[player] and i == nil then
			print(player.Name.." touched")
			table.insert(touching, player)
		elseif _detected[player] == nil and i ~= nil then
			print(player.Name.." touch ended")
			table.remove(touching, table.find(touching, player))
		end
	end
	task.wait()
end
