Hello all,
I’m working on a game that uses projectiles to cast things at things and I am using the touched event to do that. The projectile doesn’t give the touched event for a few seconds after it is created.

Here is an example of this not working:

Sure!

Here is the code for when the projectile is being created. (sorry for my horrible variable names)

        local clone2 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Spells.Normal.Spell:Clone()
		clone2.Parent = workspace.Casted
		clone2:SetNetworkOwner(game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char))
		clone2.CFrame = script.Parent.Tip.CFrame
		local vel = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", clone2)
		clone2.CFrame = CFrame.new(clone2.Position, game.ReplicatedStorage.Mouse:InvokeClient(game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)))
		vel.Velocity = clone2.CFrame.LookVector * game.ReplicatedStorage.Values.Speed.Value

		delay(15, function()
			if clone2 then
				clone2:Destroy()
			end
		end)
		clone2.Touched:Connect(function(part)
            -- Touched code here
        end)

You should give it the touched event immediately instead of waiting.

That did the trick! Thank you!
