How can I make my tool deal a specific amount of damage ONLY when its animation plays?
To clarify, I want to know how I can STOP it from dealing damage when the tool is NOT moving, and how it CAN deal damage ONLY when the tool is moving. I don't want to to be like the classic roblox sword.
I have this script here, I need to know what I can add to it that will allow the tool to deal damage ONLY when its animation plays..
Script:
local Tool = script.Parent
local Animation = Tool.Animation
local activeCooldown = false
local cooldownTime = 3
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
if (activeCooldown) then
return
else
activeCooldown = true
local Character = Tool.Parent
local Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
local AnimationTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
cooldownTime = AnimationTrack.Length
AnimationTrack:Play()
wait(3)
activeCooldown = false
end
end)
thanks, needed to revise to make it a bit more understandable lol

I'm having the same problem, this is the default sword script, even if the HAMMER isn't moving, it still deals damage. Right back to square one.. kingsworld9 14 — 3y

If you want a sword then, Here you go...
local Tool = script.Parent
local Animation = Tool.Animation
local activeCooldown = false
local cooldownTime = 3
local Blade = script.Parent.Handle -- HitPart
local Damage = 10 -- Damage
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
if (activeCooldown) then
return
else
activeCooldown = true
local Character = Tool.Parent
local Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
local AnimationTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
cooldownTime = AnimationTrack.Length
AnimationTrack:Play()
wait(3)
activeCooldown = false
end
end)
Blade.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
wait(1)
if activeCooldown == true and Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
Hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid").Health -= Damage
else
return
end
end)
Hope It Helps!
