i tried but it doesnt work so i deleted it so now im just using a normal sword for toolbox just for testing ( u dont need to like all my posts )

#8

do you have the script for the sword that did not work ?

#9

nope i deleted the entire sword

#10

you can use a hitbox or the .Touched event to detect when the sword hit somebody , if you would use the .Touched event then just connect to the event just before playing the swing animation and after the animation ends disconnect from the event

#11

how does your hitbox work or do want the sword itself to be he hitbox.

ill try help once u specify

#12

i want the sword to be the hitbox, but it would only deal dmg when the anim plays, but even when it is touched when anim plays, it deals dmg multiple times

disconnect from the .Touched event when it deals the damage

#15

but would that disconnect it globally

then put the hitted players in a table and check if the player in the table or not before dealing the damage

try this is a serverscript in the handle. (srry if this is buggy, also replace anim)

local debounce = false
local swordDebounce = false
script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
	if not debounce then
		debounce = true
		game.Players[script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name].Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(anim)
		script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
			if not swordDebounce and hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
				swordDebounce = true
				hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(3)
			end
		end)
		wait(1)
		swordDebounce = false
		debounce = false
	end
end)
