Rain System delay bug

[BryanROBLOXgamer10 (Bryan)]

Hey guys! I’m making a rain system to my game that uses the trail and particle emitter instances to make the rain drops, but theres a little problem when the drops touchs some part

Video:

Script in StarterCharacterScripts:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local orgDrop = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("water_drop")
local folder = nil
local character = script.Parent
local hrp = character.PrimaryPart or character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local raycastResult = nil
local rayParams = RaycastParams.new()
rayParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {character}
rayParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude

function addDropFunction(drop: BasePart)
	drop.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit.CanCollide == true then
			drop.Anchored = true
			drop.Splash:Emit(4)
			task.delay(drop.Splash.Lifetime.Max, function()
				if drop then
					drop:Destroy()
				end
			end)
		end
	end)
	
	task.delay(16, function()
		if drop then
			drop:Destroy()
		end
	end)
end

function createDrop()
	local newDrop = orgDrop:Clone()
	
	local pos = hrp.Position + Vector3.new(math.random(-32, 32), 0, math.random(-32, 32))
	local finalPos = pos + Vector3.new(0, 512, 0)
	
	raycastResult = workspace:Raycast(pos, finalPos, rayParams)
	if raycastResult then
		return nil
	end
	
	newDrop.Position = finalPos
	addDropFunction(newDrop)
	newDrop.Parent = folder
end

if not workspace:FindFirstChild("water_drops") then
	local newFolder = Instance.new("Folder")
	newFolder.Name = "water_drops"
	newFolder.Parent = workspace
	folder = newFolder
else
	folder = workspace:FindFirstChild("water_drops")
end

while task.wait() do createDrop() end

As you can see, the touch event takes a while to figure out that it touched the part and creates the splash effect much later than expected. Is there anything I can do?

Thanks to everyone who responded to this post <3

touched can be delayed with fast objects in general, you should use raycasts instead to detect
