VFX not showing after 1 minute of playing

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I want to stop prevent the issue where the vfx is no longer showing up…
Issue : the vfx is not showing up after 1 minute about.
Solutions, I have tried : debugging to know if the code is the problem.

  • its emitting, its clonning, its anchored. I dont have enough experience to pin point more debugging.

Review the video you will see the issue:

Module Script BlockHandler

local BlockHandler = {}

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local BridgeNet = require(ReplicatedStorage.Modules.BridgeNet2)
local SpeedManager = require(script.Parent.SpeedManager)
local Animations = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Animations")
local blockAnimation = Animations:WaitForChild("Fist"):WaitForChild("Blocking")

local isUserBlockingConnection = BridgeNet.ServerBridge("UserBlocking")

local playerAnimationTracks = {}

isUserBlockingConnection:Connect(function(player, isBlocking)
	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

	local isDashing = character:GetAttribute("IsDashing")
	local isPunching = character:GetAttribute("IsPunching")
	if isDashing or isPunching then
		return
	end

	character:SetAttribute("IsBlocking", isBlocking)

	if isBlocking then
		character:SetAttribute("PerfectBlock", true)
		delay(0.1, function()
			if character:GetAttribute("IsBlocking") then
				character:SetAttribute("PerfectBlock", false)
			end
		end)

		character:SetAttribute("BlockCount", 0)
	else
		character:SetAttribute("PerfectBlock", false)
		character:SetAttribute("BlockCount", nil)
	end

	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	if not humanoid then return end
	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator") or Instance.new("Animator", humanoid)

	if not playerAnimationTracks[player] then
		playerAnimationTracks[player] = animator:LoadAnimation(blockAnimation)
	end

	local animationTrack = playerAnimationTracks[player]
	if isBlocking then
		animationTrack:Play()
		SpeedManager:ApplyEffect(character, "block")
	else
		animationTrack:Stop()
		SpeedManager:ApplyEffect(character, "normal")
	end
end)


game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	playerAnimationTracks[player] = nil
end)

return BlockHandler

VFX Emitting from another module script

local function BlockParticles(humanoid)
	print("block")
	local character = humanoid.Parent
	local humanoidRootPart = character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not humanoidRootPart then return end 

	local clonedBlockVFX = BlockVFX:Clone()
	clonedBlockVFX.Position = humanoidRootPart.Position
	clonedBlockVFX.Anchored = true
	clonedBlockVFX.CanCollide = false
	clonedBlockVFX.Parent = character

	for _, descendant in pairs(clonedBlockVFX:GetDescendants()) do
		if descendant:IsA("ParticleEmitter") then
			local emitCount = descendant:GetAttribute("EmitCount") or 50
			task.delay(0, function()
				descendant:Emit(emitCount)
				print("emitB")
			end)
		end
	end
	task.delay(2, function()
		clonedBlockVFX:Destroy()
	end)
end

				descendant:Emit(emitCount)
				print("emitPB")
			end)
		end
	end

local function BlockBreakParticles(humanoid)
	print("blockbreak")
	local character = humanoid.Parent
	local humanoidRootPart = character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	clonedBlockVFX.Anchored = true
	clonedBlockVFX.CanCollide = false
	clonedBlockVFX.Parent = character

	for _, descendant in pairs(clonedBlockVFX:GetDescendants()) do

-- this is the part that calls those functions
			if hitHumanoid.Parent:GetAttribute("IsBlocking") == true and isAttackFromFront(hitHumanoid.Parent, player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position) then

It appears that the VFX only stopped showing on those 3 dummies, are you sure it is your modules and not the dummies?

#3

Not at all its the entire game, I tested it with other players.

#4

It doesn’t appear to be related to your modules, could it be the script using them which causes this?

#6

Can you provide more information on what you are stating?
