How to make it so my attack generates once?

Asked by

4 years ago

So, I made an "attack" called force blast for my game, but instead of generating for 1 player, it generates for everyone. How do I fix it? Those are the scripts.

Also, if you can make it so it damages every player which touches it BUT the player which generated it, it would be great.

Local Script.

01local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local character = script.Parent
03local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("forcebrr")
04local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
05local requiredKey = Enum.KeyCode.R
06local rStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
07local rep = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
08 
09UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, gameProcessed)
10    if key.KeyCode == requiredKey then
11        remoteEvent:FireServer()
12    end
13end)

Server Script.

01local ReplicatedStorage =  game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
02local RemoteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("forcebrr")
03 
04game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
05    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
06        RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
07            --Part creation script is in the comments, it is right here but it is too long and                   
08                        will make the script harder to fix.

I suggest that you learn how to use for loops as they will shorten the amount of code you will need to write. DeUltimate23 142 — 4y

While I do know how to use loops, I have a technique to make it smoother, which requires longer code. InterDwarf 14 — 4y

The code you have written now wont make it any smoother than using a for loop pal DeUltimate23 142 — 4y

I can lin kyou the game. InterDwarf 14 — 4y

Howdy! It looks to me that your problem is originating from the server script. I am new to scripting, so this may or may not work for you.

01local ReplicatedStorage =  game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
02local RemoteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("forcebrr")
03 
04local function forcebrrRemoteEvent(Player)
05    local part = game.ServerStorage.ForceField:Clone()
06            part.Parent = workspace
07            part.Position = game.Players[Player.Name].Character.Torso.Position
08            part.CanCollide = false
09            part.Anchored = true
10            part.Size = Vector3.new(5, 5, 5)
11            part.Transparency = 0.05
12            wait(0.005)

And for the local script

01local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local character = script.Parent
03local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("forcebrr")
04local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
05local requiredKey = Enum.KeyCode.R
06local rStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
07local rep = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
08 
09UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, gameProcessed)
10    if key.KeyCode == requiredKey then
11      remoteEvent:FireServer(player)
12    end
13end)

I apologize if this didn't work for you, as I didn't have any time to test it.

It didn't work, by looking I could tell there are issues. Good luck learning to code! InterDwarf 14 — 4y
