06 
07local WaitTime: number = 0.3 --// anything
08 
09local function onTouch(otherPart)
10    local humanoid = otherPart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
11 
12    if not humanoid then return end
13 
14    if humanoid.Parent ~= tool.Parent and canDamage then
15        humanoid:TakeDamage(5)
16    else
17        return
18    end
19 
20    canDamage = false
21end
22 
23local function slash()
24    if Cooldown then return end
25    Cooldown = true
26 
27    local str = Instance.new("StringValue")
28 
29    str.Name = "e" --idk why i made it e, i just edited the script that i used for an old game
30    str.Value = "Slash"
