How to make lightsaber hit effect like in saber showdown

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

What do you want to achieve?** Keep it simple and clear!
I need to make a hit effect not the particle emitter effect but the burned part
effect.

What solutions have you tried so far?
I have tried deleting the part’s child when the lightsaber hits but it will do that to more than one part
here is my current script

local tool = script.Parent
local anim = tool:WaitForChild("Attack1")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Animator = humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")
local debounce = false
local attacking = false


tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	local track = Animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
	if debounce ~= true then
		track:Play()
		attacking = true
		wait(0.4)
		attacking = false
	end
end)





tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(part)
	if debounce ~= true and attacking ~= false then
		local char = part.Parent
		local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		hum:TakeDamage(10) 
		debounce = true
		wait(0.5)
		debounce = false
	end
end)

Can you provide a video of what effect your trying to achieve?

What I am trying to achieve is to cut the part that hit the blade from the body and turning ONE side of the part into neon

I think you can just detect in the hitbox which part of the character it hit and then remove its joints.

I tried that it will remove more than one part’s joints

touched event provides the part it touched in the first argument so u can do smth like

local partcut = false

tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(part)
    if partcut == false then
        partcut = true
        -- cut touched limb here by removing welds 
    end
    -- the rest of the damage script
end)

no it wouldn’t, it checks if the hitbox cut a part before, and if it did then it would just skip the part where it cuts it. please try it before saying that

This is the Touched event part of the script
It might be there’s a problem with it
as i did try it

tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(part)
		if partcut == false then
		partcut = true
		local Motor = part:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Motor6D")
		Motor:Destroy()
		end
	if debounce ~= true and attacking ~= false then
		local char = part.Parent
		local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		hum:TakeDamage(10)
		debounce = true
		wait(0.5)
		debounce = false
	end-- the rest of the damage script
end)

If it cuts more than once, maybe removing a Motor6d disconnects other parts from each other. Try making a false part and setting the real part’s transparency to 1.
