Hi i tried making a simple dash script, it works but i decided to add a trail effect when players are dashing.
it’s working but i noticed the trail wont appear to other players
(the script is in StarterCharacterScripts
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local debounce = false
local left_arm = character:WaitForChild("Left Arm") :: BasePart
local right_arm = character:WaitForChild("Right Arm") :: BasePart
local left_grip = left_arm.LeftGripAttachment
local left_shoulder = left_arm.LeftShoulderAttachment
local right_grip = right_arm.RightGripAttachment
local right_shoulder = right_arm.RightShoulderAttachment
local trail1 = Instance.new("Trail", script.Parent)
trail1.Name = "trail1"
local trail2 = Instance.new("Trail", script.Parent)
trail2.Name = "trail2"
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, processed)
if debounce or processed then
return
end
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
debounce = true
humanoid.WalkSpeed += 25
script.Sound.Playing = true
trail1.Parent = character
trail2.Parent = character
trail1.Parent = left_arm
trail2.Parent = right_arm
left_arm.trail1.Attachment0 = left_grip
left_arm.trail1.Attachment1 = left_shoulder
right_arm.trail2.Attachment0 = right_grip
right_arm.trail2.Attachment1 = right_shoulder
task.wait(0.5)
humanoid.WalkSpeed -= 25
left_arm.trail1.Attachment0 = nil
left_arm.trail1.Attachment1 = nil
right_arm.trail2.Attachment0 = nil
right_arm.trail2.Attachment1 = nil
end
task.wait(1.5)
debounce = false
end)
You need to do the trail applying to character inside server script because local script only shows to that player only, Use remote event.

You defined your trail in a LocalScript, meaning it will only show for the client.
Use a RemoteEvent to make it instead:
local createtrail = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").createtrail
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local debounce = false
local left_arm = character:WaitForChild("Left Arm") :: BasePart
local right_arm = character:WaitForChild("Right Arm") :: BasePart
local left_grip = left_arm.LeftGripAttachment
local left_shoulder = left_arm.LeftShoulderAttachment
local right_grip = right_arm.RightGripAttachment
local right_shoulder = right_arm.RightShoulderAttachment
createtrail:FireServer(script.Parent)
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, processed)
if debounce or processed then
return
end
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
debounce = true
humanoid.WalkSpeed += 25
script.Sound.Playing = true
trail1.Parent = character
trail2.Parent = character
trail1.Parent = left_arm
trail2.Parent = right_arm
left_arm.trail1.Attachment0 = left_grip
left_arm.trail1.Attachment1 = left_shoulder
right_arm.trail2.Attachment0 = right_grip
right_arm.trail2.Attachment1 = right_shoulder
task.wait(0.5)
humanoid.WalkSpeed -= 25
left_arm.trail1.Attachment0 = nil
left_arm.trail1.Attachment1 = nil
right_arm.trail2.Attachment0 = nil
right_arm.trail2.Attachment1 = nil
end
task.wait(1.5)
debounce = false
end)
Script in ServerScriptService:
local replicatedstorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
replicatedstorage.createtrail.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, parent)
local trail1 = Instance.new("Trail", parent)
trail1.Name = "trail1"
local trail2 = Instance.new("Trail", parent)
trail2.Name = "trail2"
end)
