Lighting Effect upon touch

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

ive been wanting to make where when someone gets touched by something it will put a colorcorrection on their screen; but it is not working for me… this is my code

server:

hitbox.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	if Hit.Parent ~= Character and Hit.Parent ~= Stand then
	        local enemyplayer = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
		print(enemyplayer)
		blodlustremote:FireClient(enemyplayer)
	end

client:

blodlustremote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(enemyPlayer)
	print("joe mama fatst")
	local bloodcolor = game.Lighting.Bleeding
	if enemyPlayer then
		bloodcolor.Enabled = true
	end
	print("recieved the thing")
	wait(blodcd)
	print("waited")
	bloodcolor.Enabled = false
end)

please tell me how to make my code work or give me a better method

#2

So you wan’t to make the players screen reddish?

#3

Change your client code to.

blodlustremote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	print("joe mama fatst")
	local bloodcolor = game.Lighting.Bleeding
	
		bloodcolor.Enabled = true
	
	print("recieved the thing")
	wait(blodcd)
	print("waited")
	bloodcolor.Enabled = false
end)

Where did you define blodcd, also?

#4

yes the player that got hit should have a reddish screen

#5 
local blodcd = 5.3

ok so uhm, nothing happened… still broken i get the error “Player Arguement Must be a Player”

You could just get a screen gui, insert a text image, change the image id to something white, and when they get hit turn the transparency to 0.8 or something.

#7

well i know but i use color correction to seem more dynamic(like with better black outlines standing out) and to obscure their vision more.

Change the server code to

hitbox.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
	if Hit.Parent ~= Character and Hit.Parent ~= Stand then
	        local enemyplayer = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent)
		print(enemyplayer)
if enemyplayer then
		blodlustremote:FireClient(enemyplayer)
end
	end
#9

#10

ok, where did you put the localscript?

#11

its in serverstorage but gets parented to starterpack

#12

Just put it in startergui.

#13

no that ruins my whole game. i need a script to fix it also that would literally change nothing, dont get me started with scripts dont run there; because all my other moves work. its not the parenting thats wrong

#14

Okay, if that is the problem it’s not my fault.

Anyways…
You define the remoteevent in the client script, right? Show me where you do.

#15 
local blodlustremote = remotes.TheWorld.Bloodlust

yezzir

#16

Where do you define Remotes? Can you just paste the entire client script, It’d help alot.

#17

uhm… the entire client script is really unrelated and it handles a whole entire 6 moves, with 575 lines of code. here is the parts that matter:

local rp = game.ReplicatedStorage
local remotes = rp.Remotes
local blodlustremote = remotes.TheWorld.Bloodlust
local blooddeb = false
local blodcd = 5.3
function blodfro()
	if thang.Value > 0 then
		if Character:FindFirstChild("TheWorld") then
			if canattack == true then
				blodlustremote:FireServer()
			end
		end
	end
end
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,IsTyping)
	if IsTyping then
		return
	elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.H then
		if Player.Character:FindFirstChild("TheWorld") then
			if not Character.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("CantAttack") then
				blodfro()
			end
		end
	end
end)
blodlustremote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	print("joe mama fatst")
	local bloodcolor = game.Lighting.Bleeding
	
	bloodcolor.Enabled = true
	
	print("recieved the thing")
	wait(blodcd)
	print("waited")
	bloodcolor.Enabled = false
end)
#18

Okay. Using your code, what other errors are in the output before you touch the part?

#19

none.
(30 characters ruined the simplicity of this reply but no one would understand a heart on the reply)

#20
