hi im making a game that is inspired highly to some tsb games and jjs, im been making a gojo character, and i wanted to make his Ability “Blue” similar how jjs made it, but i notice that apart from my game, jjs when you aim your mouse, THE MOUSE has a range, but in my game the range the MOUSE is just like a point, see the footage to understand
i dont want to copy, i just want to replicate the mechanic
Forgort to mention the script i made for it:
["blue"] = function(argu)
if chr:GetAttribute("activu") == true then
return
end
if argu then
local horp = argu.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
if not argu.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart") then
return
end
local magnitude = (horp.Position - rot.Position).magnitude
if 20 > magnitude then
if argu and argu.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
local anim: Animation = human:LoadAnimation(Ability_Char_Stuff.Animations.Blue)
anim:Play()
if argu then
print("hi")
end
anim:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Use"):Connect(function()
visualizerremote:FireAllClients(player, "blue_gojo", rot.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,1,-5))
Main_Basics.CreateCD(player.Character, "R", 5, nil, nil, true)
end)
end
end
end
end;
this is from server so, “argu” stands for “Mouse.Target.Postion”

Hey, amarodjdja!
You need to use workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius() in order to get all parts in a radius around the mouse’s hit position.
Example:
local Script,Game,Workspace = script,game,workspace
local Players = Game:GetService("Players")
local UserInputService = Game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Camera = Workspace.CurrentCamera
local radius = 10
local function Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
local mousePosition = UserInputService:GetMouseLocation()
local rayData = Camera:ScreenPointToRay(mousePosition.X,mousePosition.Y)
local ray = Workspace:RayCast(rayData.Origin,rayData.Direction*1024)
return ray
end
local function Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
local position = Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
if not position then return {} end
local parts = Workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(position,radius)
return parts
end
Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position() -- Calling this would return parts in a 10 stud radius.
I used Camera and UserInputService as it’s more of a modern approach on getting the mouse’s target.
is yelling me an error in the second function, im using server, now argu is this:
local mouseposition = UIS:GetMouseLocation()
local mon = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera:ScreenPointToRay(mouseposition.X, mouseposition.Y)
this is server:
["blue"] = function(argu)
if chr:GetAttribute("activu") == true then
return
end
local radius = 20
local function Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
local rayData = argu
local ray = game.Workspace:Raycast(rayData.Origin,rayData.Direction * 1024)
print(ray)
return ray
end
local function Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
local position = Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
if not position then
return {}
end
local over = OverlapParams.new()
over.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
over.FilterDescendantsInstances = {chr}
local raycastResult = workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(position, radius, over)
if raycastResult then
return raycastResult.Position
else
return nil
end
end
local p = Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
if p then
for i, v in pairs(p) do
local ehum = v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or v.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if ehum and ehum.Parent ~= chr then
print(chr)
end
break
end
end
end;
im kinda lost, i dont know about mouse stuff and camera with it
i try all in client and send the “Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position” to the server, but still gave me errors
Can you please show me the error?
sorry i went to sleep, here
i dont know what to do there
honestly
raycastResult is a object not a vector3, what happens on line 130? you probs have written something like thing.Position = raycastResult. when you want to do thing.Position = raycastResult.Position.
Here you can see the values contained within the raycastResultobject and their indexes…
yeah im kinda dumb here, i forgot to idk, do some stuff that you were saying about the index and .Position:
local radius = 20
local function Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
local rayData = argu
local ray = game.Workspace:Raycast(rayData.Origin,rayData.Direction * 1024)
print(ray)
return ray.Instance
end
local function Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
local position = Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
if not position then
return {}
end
local over = OverlapParams.new()
over.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
over.FilterDescendantsInstances = {chr}
local raycastResult = workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(position.Position, radius, over)
return raycastResult
end
local p = Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
if p then
for i, v in pairs(p) do
local ehum = v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or v.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if ehum and ehum.Parent ~= chr then
print(ehum, v.Parent)
end
break
end
end
though idk what im doing wrong a bit, cuz is only getting a character, maybe i should change this:
local p = Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
if p then
for i, v in pairs(p) do
local ehum = v.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") or v.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
if ehum and ehum.Parent ~= chr then
print(ehum, ehum.Parent)
end
break
end
end
cuz im using break probably
change ray.Instance to ray.Position in Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
cos ray.Instance is the position of the object the ray hit, and i think you want ray.Position cos that is the position at which the ray hit

i did, did good change, but i still have issues for finding like the humanoid on the character, it just get parts, and if i try to find the Humanoid, or check if is a model, this show on the output:
local p = Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
if p then
if p.Parent:IsA("Model") then
print(p.Parent:IsA("Model"))
else
return
end
end
(btw if you just put “print(p)” prints out the objects that youre pointing at, or close by it)
you could do
if part.Parent then
if part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
-- part is part of a character so
return part.Parent
end
end
You are getting that error because the part you are examining is parented to the workspace and the workspace doesnt have the :IsA() function
["blue"] = function(argu)
if chr:GetAttribute("activu") == true then
return
end
local radius = 20
local function Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
local rayData = argu
local ray = game.Workspace:Raycast(rayData.Origin,rayData.Direction * 1024)
return ray.Position
end
local function Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
local position = Get_Mouse_Position_In_3D_Space()
if not position then
return {}
end
local over = OverlapParams.new()
over.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
over.FilterDescendantsInstances = {chr, workspace.Map, workspace.Effects}
local raycastResult = workspace:GetPartBoundsInRadius(position, radius, over)
-- Find the closest character (model with Humanoid)
local closestCharacter = nil
local closestDistance = math.huge
for _, part in ipairs(raycastResult) do
local model = part:FindFirstAncestorOfClass("Model")
if model and model:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid") then
local distance = (model.PrimaryPart.Position - position).magnitude
if distance < closestDistance then
closestDistance = distance
closestCharacter = model
end
end
end
-- Print the closest character's name (if found)
if closestCharacter then
print("Closest character:", closestCharacter.Name)
else
print("No character found near the mouse position")
end
return closestCharacter
end
-- Call the function to get nearby characters
local closestCharacter = Get_Parts_Near_Mouse_Position()
end;

It seems like the issue was because I did not add a .Position after the position variable. Adding that will fix the issue.
I see that you have already found your solution, good job. I would argue that you mark my reply as the solution as I gave the general answer for how to get parts near the mouses position.
