Roblox sword has a big problem

Hello guys, I made a game on my main account using swords (the linked sword), and I discovered a bug in the sword, that only touching a player it gives damage to it.

Do there’s a way to fix that?

(I’m brazillian, I sometimes make mistakes on my write on english, sorry!)

i dont think thats a bug, its supposed to damage an humanoid even when youre not clicking/attacking/using the sword

I know, but the players just spin the camera fast causing a almost insta kill.

#help-and-feedback:scripting-support, also attach your sword code.

the sword its from toolbox, from official roblox, no changes I mean, only damage

Not a bug, this was the default behavior of the weapon at least to my knowledge.

if you want to fix it you can just put an if statement in the .touched event and create a debounce like this or something.

local swinging = false

Whatever.touched:Connect(function()
    if not swingingthen return end
end

just set the swinging value to true when you well, swing.

oh yeah, I know that but I get confused where I put the debounce.

well I think what I did should work for ya, if it doesnt please let me know! Id love to help!

i think its going to work tho, I just can’t do it the script.

I’m using the sword from toolbox, and the script its confusing.
Also the script:

Tool = script.Parent
Handle = Tool:WaitForChild("Handle")

function Create(ty)
	return function(data)
		local obj = Instance.new(ty)
		for k, v in pairs(data) do
			if type(k) == 'number' then
				v.Parent = obj

				obj[k] = v

Ok. I agree this script is horrible :sob:


Anyhow I will give you code to just replace it, but before that lets see if you can figure it out from some hints.

So, what you would do is pretty simple, inside of the Blow function, on the first line there is a long if statement, inside of it put or Tool.Enabled.

Why you might be wondering? I noticed in the other function involving the actual attacks (see the Activated function) that whoever made this sets the Tool.Enabled property to false everytime they attack, which means all we would need to do is stop the Blow function from triggering when the tool isnt swinging!

Yo! It actually works! thank you FroDev, I was hating players spinning the camera like crazy to kill others.

(Now im gonna change all swords script, the game have like 20 swords :skull: )
