How would I make it so hits send players flying

I am looking for a method that I would use that would be able to send someone flying via a hit of a weapon. Similar to this game Fisticuffs

Check if a player touched the weapon, insert a body velocity into the player’s humanoid root part and set the velocity to your likings.

Demonstration:

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") then
         local bodyVelocity  = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
         bodyVelocity.Velocity = Vector3.new(0, 230, 400)
         bodyVelocity.Parent = hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
    end
end)

That function is deprecated, do you know the new way of doing this?

Use a vector force instead. Very similar usage overall although you can do relativity with a VectorForce.

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid") then
         local vForce  = Instance.new("VectorForce")
         vForce.Force = Vector3.new(0, 230, 400)
         vForce.Parent = hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
    end
end)
