Sword still damaging players even when it shouldn't?
Hi, I'm trying to make an ability for a sword which does a lot of damage in one hit. It does the damage, but it keeps damaging the opponent even when you're just holding the sword over them. Ive tried making it wait and set the takedamage script to 0 but it still won't work. Help would be much appreciated!
here is the script in server script service which gets activated once a remote event is fired:
game.ReplicatedStorage.Bat.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local char = player.Character
local bat = char:FindFirstChild("Bat")
wait(1.2)
bat.Handle.Bonk:Play()
bat.Handle.bat_hit:Play()
bat.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
if hit.Parent.Name ~= player.Name then
hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(1.5)
end
end
end)
wait(.5)
bat.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
if hit.Parent.Name ~= player.Name then
hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(0)
end
end
end)
end)

What's up?
I have found a pretty solid solution to your question.
I have answered this in a similar question of yours (https://scriptinghelpers.org/questions/129322/sword-not-knocking-back-players-when-used), but I will help again anyhow.
To start off, :TakeDamage() won't stop them taking damage! :TakeDamage(0) just means it won't make them loose health.
Anyhow, DEBOUNCE IS HERE TO SAVE THE DAY!!!
Inside your script:
game.ReplicatedStorage.Bat.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,bat)
local debounce = false
local char = player.Character
wait(1.2)
bat.Handle.Bonk:Play()
bat.Handle.bat_hit:Play()
bat.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and debounce == false then
if hit.Parent.Name ~= player.Name then
hit.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(1.5)
end
end
end)
wait(.5)
debounce = true
end)
