Im working on making a fighting game (like the title implies)
Instead of making like 10 posts for different problems i have, i’d just like to make one big post, i just want to get rid of these issues, they are blocking further development.
Issue 1: Cant find a good hitbox module
I’ve been looking forever for a good hitbox module, I tried Raycast Hitbox, but it was really inaccurate (for me) i probably wasn’t using it right, But the hitbox relies on an animation.
For example, Lets say you are doing a long swing animation, But in the middle of it, some animation interrupts, The hitbox won’t follow the other animation, since its just following the tool.
I tried a LOT of modules, i just can’t find a basic one, I don’t want some sort of new way of making hitboxes, i just want a very simple module thats understandable, one that the big games use or something.
Item Asylum places a part infront of your character for a hitbox, this is basically all i need.
It also seems to place multiple hitboxes infront of you to give a more accurate hitbox.
(you can see i want something like item asylum lol)

Issue 2: Bad damage indicator system
I could not find ANY good damage indicator systems, a number that shows how much you damaged someone might be simple, right? Well no, For some reason all the tutorials just use a server script to show how much their character was damaged, so everyone has to see that. For me, i just made a script that goes through all the player characters and sets stuff up from there, Thats fine, But the Died event is very delayed, I thought this was because the client fires the event, but no, because its even delayed on an NPC.
Is there some sort of way i can detect it normally? Games such as Item Asylum do it probably from the tool itself (you can see it do “-0” damage when hitting an invincible player, health changed wouldn’t fire for this) So is there a way i can do it just like all the other games?

Even though there are only 2 big issues, They are really ruining my game, I simply want basic damage indicators and hitboxes, nothing special.
I apologise if i sounded aggressive while writing this, i don’t intend to sound rude/mad.
Any help is appreciated, I would like to continue working on my game without worrying about this.
