Is there a way to expand the players Hitboxes?
if so, How do I do it

#2

i don’t know if this is the best way but you could just add a transparent part with canColide off into the player and weld it to a part in the player (if you don’t want the part to move during animations use the HumanoidRootPart) and the you can just include it in your hit detection system.

This should work, ofcourse you can edit the name,size and offset

local players = game:GetService("Players")

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		local hrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
		local extraHitbox = Instance.new("Part")
		extraHitbox.Parent = char
		extraHitbox.Name = "Hitbox"
		extraHitbox.Anchored = false
		extraHitbox.CanCollide = false
		extraHitbox.Transparency = 1
		extraHitbox.Size = Vector3.new(5,5,5) --Put wanted size here
		extraHitbox.Position = hrp.Position + Vector3.new(0,0,0)--Vector3 not needed persee but used for offsetting part
		local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
		weld.Parent = extraHitbox
		weld.Part0 = weld.Parent
		weld.Part1 = hrp
	end)
end)

Resizing the HumanoidRootPart should work. What is this for? It might cause issues if you expand it on the server, but doing it client-side if you’re making it easier for players to hit an enemy (eg with a setting), then this should work.

where should i put this script to order to work?

This should go on a server-sided script on ServerScriptService, but one thing… if you don’t have an extense knowledge on scripting you probably won’t be able to work with a custom Hitbox, be careful about this cause it will change the way you detect collisions with the character.
