Tips for a fist combat system?
I'm not very good at scripting, but I want to make a combat system. I've been trying different methods for 2 weeks, but none of them work. Other people's methods are using Touched for the hit detection and Region3 for hit detection. I personally want to use Region3 but I want to know how to make a hitbox that follows your humanoid Root Part but I don't know how. Any tips for making a Region3 combat system?

I use the :GetTouchingParts() method.
Create a "hitbox" infront of the player; insert a part, make it any size you want, then position it infront of the player.
Give the new part a Touched event, this is to allow GetTouchingParts() to also detect parts with no collision.
You can then do something like this :
for _, PartTouching in pairs(hitbox:GetTouchingParts()) do
local Humanoid = PartTouching.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if Humanoid then
Humanoid:TakeDamage(5)
end
end
Note, hitboxes may not be positioned correctly on the server, mostly due to ping ( especially when the player moves forward ), you can fix this by checking if they're moving forward and then set the hitbox a bit more forward according to their speed.
Im not very good at explaining but if you did understand what I meant then awesome job me.
