My sword won’t work in game but it work in studio and I want to fix that
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
Sword won’t damage in game but damage in studio
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I tried searching for solution but still can’t figure out why it doesn’t work

The script references both “deb” and “combo” but neither are declared & initialised, similarly an attempt is made to play 2 “Sound” instances which are also not assigned to declared variables. I’ve added “deb” and “combo” and commented out the attempt to play both “Sound” instances, try this.
So the script is a child of the remote event that is a child of a local script but the thing is that everything work fine on studio but it won’t damage in the real game for some reason
Tried the script, it works fine in studio but still won’t work in game and also when I tested it in the game the hitbox is working fine but it doesn’t damage the dummy like in studio for some reason
It’s like the script is having some issue with the touch event but I still don’t know how to fix it
I would recommend doing hitreg on the client, passing the information on to the server and performing server sided sanity checks to prevent exploiters. If you or the player you are attacking have high ping, the chances of hits registering are very low.
I might try that soon because my game will be based on PVE more than PVP. I haven’t tried any of the solutions yet but I would really want to know what cause it so I won’t make the same mistake in the future
I think it is caused due to the server sided hit detection. This problem happened to me while I was working on a project. I fixed it by doing the hit detection on the client and doing checks + damage on the server.
local debounces = {}
script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(ply)
if debounces[ply] then return end
debounces[ply] = true
--code--
wait(n)
debounces[ply] = nil or --debounces[ply] = false
end
end
I Fixed it some how, I just deleted all the hitbox lines, the local script, make the sword run only using 1 server script and use the sword handle for the touch event instead and that worked. Thanks for all the suggestion.
