How to disable damage on a weapon when a player is in a given area? Please help

I’m trying to make a safezone for my game. I want to change the amount of damage the sword does to 0 whenever they’re in the SafeZone.

I’ve tried numerous methods however, none of them have worked.

I’m using the ClassicSword script:

Hi, I just tested this and I think it will work :slightly_smiling_face:

  • You can change the SafeZone variable to the safe zone if you ever change it’s location
  • The script that makes the safe zone work is in the blow function

Edit: Instead of copying the ClassicSword script you sent, I used the sword model made by Roblox and edited the sword script in that, so if you’ve made changes to the script you sent, it might not be there.
