You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. I tried make hitboxes what can hit multiple targets but it works bad

anybody know how i can make hitbox hit multiple targets once/many times

local hitbox = {}
hitbox.attack = function(size,cframe,root,dmg,howlong,effect,CanSound,plr)
		local targets = {}
		local bb = 0
		local ht = Instance.new("Part")
		ht.Size = size
		ht.Name = "Hitbox"
		ht.CanCollide = false
		ht.Transparency = 0.9
		ht.Material = Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic
		ht.Color = Color3.fromRGB(0,255,0)
		local weld = Instance.new("Weld")
		ht.CFrame = cframe
		ht.Massless = true
		weld.Part0 = ht
		weld.Part1 = root
		weld.C0 = ht.CFrame:Inverse()
		weld.C1 = root.CFrame:Inverse()
		ht.Parent = workspace
		weld.Parent = ht
		game.Debris:AddItem(ht,howlong)
		ht.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
		if hit and hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil and hit.Parent.Name ~= plr.Name then
			local item = table.find(targets,hit.Parent)
				if item == nil then
					bb = bb+1
					table.insert(targets,bb,hit.Parent)
					local enemy = hit.Parent.Humanoid
					enemy:TakeDamage(dmg)
				end
			end
		end)
	end
return hitbox

How about you just use a region three or get GetTouchingParts()

#3

can you bring me example? it would be cool

#4

Well just search up region three or gettouchingparts() in the search and youll find some good information

You could put every target that was hit into a table and check if they were in the list

local alreadyHit = {}
function addHit(target)
 if not alreadyHit[target.Name] then --checks if target is in the table
  alreadyHit[target.Name] = true --stores target to table for future check

  --do stuff here

  delay(.1,function() alreadyHit[target.Name] = nil end) --deletes target from the table
 end
end)

its good idea, but are you sure you wrote it right?

#7

My mistake, I’ve made a typo. I’ve updated the code now.

#8

its still cant attack many targets

#10

idk if u have already found a solution but this should do it

Attacked = {}

if not Attacked[table.find(Attacked,Target)] then
table.insert(Attacked,Target)
--stuff 
for i =1 , #Attacked do
	if Attacked[i] == Target then
		table.remove(Attacked,i)
	  end
    end
end

Unrelated to the scripting, but you have some z-fighting going on there on the stand and on your clothes - just thought you might want to fix that.
