Infection tool error not working

[MatoWiz (string)]

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. What do you want to achieve? So I want this script when it the tool hits a player they get infected

2. What is the issue? So when I try to activate this tool I get an error in this screenshot and it doesn"t work

3. What solutions have you tried so far? Nothing, because it seems like the script is fine?
   

   

Here is the script! Hope anyone could help me out!

-- Tool settings
local tool = script.Parent
local handle = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
local animation = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(handle.Swing)

-- Infection settings
local infectRadius = 5
local infectDuration = 600 -- 10 minutes
local cooldownDuration = 600 -- 10 minutes

-- Menu settings
local menuTitle = "WARNING!"
local menuDesc = "There is a new infection going around! Please seek immediate shelter and try to not be infected until we find a cure or one of our Bioprepatent joins!"

-- Function to infect a player
local function infectPlayer(player)
	local humanoid = player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	if humanoid then
		-- Play infection effect
		local blur = Instance.new("BlurEffect")
		blur.Parent = humanoid.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Camera")
		blur.Size = infectRadius
		blur.Name = "InfectionEffect"

		-- Show infection menu
		local notification = Instance.new("Notification")
		notification.Parent = player.PlayerGui
		notification.Title = menuTitle
		notification.Text = menuDesc

		-- Infect player
		humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0.5 * humanoid.WalkSpeed
		humanoid.JumpPower = 0.5 * humanoid.JumpPower
		humanoid.MaxHealth = 0.5 * humanoid.MaxHealth
		humanoid.Health = humanoid.MaxHealth

		-- Set player as infected
		player:SetAttribute("Infected", true)
		player:SetAttribute("InfectionTime", infectDuration)
	end
end

-- Function to process tool activation
local function onActivated()
	if tool.Enabled then
		-- Play animation
		print("animation played noob")
		animation:Play()

		-- Set tool on cooldown
		tool.Enabled = false
		wait(cooldownDuration)
		tool.Enabled = true
	end
end

-- Connect activation event
tool.Activated:Connect(onActivated)

-- Listen for animation hits
local function onHit(hitPart)
	local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitPart.Parent)
	if player and not player:GetAttribute("Infected") then
		infectPlayer(player)
	end
end

animation:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Infect")(onHit)

-- Listen for infection duration expiration
game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function(dt)
	for _, player in ipairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
		if player:GetAttribute("Infected") then
			local remainingTime = player:GetAttribute("InfectionTime") - dt
			if remainingTime <= 0 then
				-- Cure player
				local humanoid = player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
				if humanoid then
					humanoid.WalkSpeed = 2 * humanoid.WalkSpeed
					humanoid.JumpPower = 2 * humanoid.JumpPower
					humanoid.MaxHealth = 2 * humanoid.MaxHealth
					humanoid.Health = humanoid.MaxHealth
					local blur = humanoid.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("BlurEffect")
					if blur then
						blur:Destroy()
					end
				end
				player:SetAttribute("Infected", false)
			else
				player:SetAttribute("InfectionTime", remainingTime)
			end
		end
	end
end)

Can you show the error itself? You are just showing the line.

Sorry, I just forget sometimes

Here it is!

You misspelled “Connect”,
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Actual error, Sorry.

@MatoWiz

animation:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Infect")(onHit)

On this line you need to connect GetMarkerReachedSignal to the function with :Connect,
Replace that line with this:

animation:GetMarkerReachedSignal("Infect"):Connect(onHit)

It doesn’t give me this error anymore but the infection doesn’t work even if I hit someone with it but thank you for your help anyways
