Issue with HitBox Module!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Help! I’m using the Raycast Hitbox module. My problem is that hitboxes usually stop working or work pretty bad (I think it happens after I died and recovered, since I use a ragdoll system).

Also (it hasn’t necessarily nothing to do with the previous problem, but it may), this error usually shows up on the HitBox:Stop() line if I quickly unequip the tool once activated: “Players.HaxxerVaxxer.Backpack.Fists.HScript:54: attempt to call a nil value”.

CODE (I use it in a lot of tools, this one is just an example, the one I use to script the melee fists):

local health_module = require(game:GetService("ServerStorage").ModuleLibrary.HealthModule)
local Damage = script.Parent.Configuration.Damage.Value
local Tool = script.Parent
local Handle = Tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
local Character = Tool.Parent
local RaycastHitbox = require(Tool.RaycastHitboxV4)
local Hitbox
local dodgeremote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Dodge
local punch2 = script.Parent.Punch2
local punch2v = false
local swing = script.Parent.Handle.Swing
local hit = script.Parent.Handle.Hit
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

ToolEquipped = false

Tool.Enabled = true

--function IsTeamMate(Player1, Player2)
--	return (Player1 and Player2 and not Player1.Neutral and not Player2.Neutral and Player1.TeamColor == Player2.TeamColor)
--end

punch2.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	punch2v = true
end)


function Activated()
	if not Tool.Enabled or not ToolEquipped or not CheckIfAlive() then
		return
	end
	if punch2v == true then
		Tool.Enabled = false
		Hitbox:HitStart()
		swing:Play()
		local Tick = RunService.Stepped:wait()
		local char = Tool.Parent
		wait(0.3)
		swing:Play()
		wait(0.3)
		Hitbox:HitStop()
		punch2v = false
		wait(0.2)
		Tool.Enabled = true
	else
		Tool.Enabled = false
		Hitbox:HitStart()
		swing:Play()
		local Tick = RunService.Stepped:wait()
		local char = Tool.Parent
		wait(0.6)
		Hitbox:HitStop()
		wait(0.2)
		Tool.Enabled = true
	end
end

function Blow(Hit)
	
	if not Hit or not Hit.Parent or not CheckIfAlive() or not ToolEquipped then
		return
	end
	local RightArm = Character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm") or Character:FindFirstChild("RightHand")
	if not RightArm then
		return
	end
	local RightGrip = RightArm:FindFirstChild("RightGrip")
	if not RightGrip or (RightGrip.Part0 ~= Handle and RightGrip.Part1 ~= Handle) then
		return
	end
	local character = Hit.Parent
	if character == Character then
		return
	end
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	if not humanoid or humanoid.Health == 0 then
		return
	end
	local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
	if player and (player == Player) then
		return
	end
	if character.HumanoidRootPart.Dodging.Value == false then
		health_module.TakeClampedDamage(humanoid,Damage)
		hit.Parent = character.UpperTorso
		hit:Play()
	else 
		if character.HumanoidRootPart.Dodging.Value == true then
			dodgeremote:FireClient(player)
		end
	end
end

function CheckIfAlive()
	return (((Player and Player.Parent and Character and Character.Parent and Humanoid and Humanoid.Parent and Humanoid.Health > 5 and Torso and Torso.Parent) and true) or false)
end

function Equipped()
	Tool.Handle.CanCollide = false
	Character = Tool.Parent
	Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Character)
	Humanoid = Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	Torso = Character:FindFirstChild("Torso") or Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not CheckIfAlive() then
		return
	end
	ToolEquipped = true

	Hitbox = RaycastHitbox.new(Tool)
	Hitbox.DetectionMode = RaycastHitbox.DetectionMode.Default
	Hitbox.Visualizer = false	
	Hitbox.OnHit:Connect(Blow)
end

function Unequipped()
	Tool.Handle.CanCollide = true
	Hitbox:Destroy()
	ToolEquipped = false
end

Tool.Activated:Connect(Activated)
Tool.Equipped:Connect(Equipped)
Tool.Unequipped:Connect(Unequipped)
