How would I detect this?

How would I detect the amount of bricks a player exploded when they shot a rocket or dropped a bomb? Lost on if it should be in the bomb or rocket script or its own separate thing.

You could check if the bricks were hit by the explosion( you can use explosion.Hit) and use tables or a number value to count.

local explosion = Instance.new("Explosion")
explosion.BlastRadius = 20
explosion.Position = script.Parent.OriginPart.Position

explosion.Hit:Connect(function(part, distance)
	if part.Name == "GoldenPart" then
		print("explosion hit a golden part ("..distance.." studs away).")
		part.Color = Color3.new(0, 1, 0)
	end
end)
	
explosion.Parent = game.Workspace

Make sure the BlastRadius of the explosion is large enough, it’s set to 4 by default (which would be too small to detect further parts).

Good solution, notice that he never specified a brick or unique brick. But to count the amount of those hit bricks.
