How do I make these blocks do Damage?
I made a function where when you press f 8 red bullets are shot from your character(with fire on them) I want them to do damage but I have no idea how, can anyone help? Also, this only works in Studio, not on a server. When I try to play it on a server is says " Players.Player1.Backpack.LocalScript:5: attempt to index field 'Character' (a nil value)"
Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
Char = Player.Character
Torso = Player.Character.Torso
Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
Attack = false
Mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
local key = key:lower()
if key == "f" and (not Attack) then
Attack = true
for i = 0, 8, 1 do
local Ball = Instance.new("Part")
Ball.Name = "Bullets"
Ball.Parent = game.Workspace
Ball.Shape = "Ball"
Ball.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
Ball.Transparency = .4
Ball.TopSurface = "Smooth"
Ball.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
Ball.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
Ball.CFrame = Torso.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0.5, -5)
Ball.CanCollide = false
local Fire = Instance.new("Fire")
Fire.Parent = Ball
local Bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
Bv.Parent = Ball
Bv.maxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
Bv.velocity = Torso.CFrame.lookVector * 100
wait(.05)
end
wait(4)
for _, v in pairs(game.Workspace:GetChildren()) do
if v.Name == "Bullets" then
v:Destroy()
end
end
wait(1)
Attack = false
end
end)

EDIT: Sorry about the link. That was for instakill, I thought it would be TakeDamage(100). Anyways, you would do humanoid:TakeDamage(damage) to hurt players. I used pseudocode for this, so you need to define humanoid and you can replace damage with a number, or create a variable named "damage" and set its value to a number.

First off, it doesn't work in a server because the script will load before the character does.
Add this before defining the character
repeat
wait() until Player.Character
Second, you need to add a .Touched event. As YumTaste mentioned, you can refer to my blog post about this similar topic, but when you get the the BreakJoints(), replace it with the following:
local hum = plr.Character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if hum then
hum:TakeDamage(20)
end
You can change the 20 to whatever you want the damage to be.
Edit: Here
Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
Char = Player.Character;
Torso = Player.Character.Torso;
Mouse = Player:GetMouse();
Attack = false;
Mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
local key = key:lower()
if key == "f" and (not Attack) then
Attack = true
local bullets = { }
for i = 0, 8, 1 do
local Ball = Instance.new("Part")
Ball.Name = "Bullets"
Ball.Parent = game.Workspace
Ball.Shape = "Ball"
Ball.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
Ball.Transparency = .4
Ball.TopSurface = "Smooth"
Ball.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
Ball.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
Ball.CFrame = Torso.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0.5, -5)
Ball.CanCollide = false
local Fire = Instance.new("Fire")
Fire.Parent = Ball
local Bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
Bv.Parent = Ball
Bv.maxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
Bv.velocity = Torso.CFrame.lookVector * 100
wait(.05)
table.insert(bullets, ball)
ball.Touched:connect(function(part)
if part then
local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
if plr then
local hum = plr.Character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
if hum then
hum:TakeDamage(20)
ball:Remove()
end
end
end)
end
wait(4)
for _, v in pairs(bullets) do
v:Destroy()
end
wait(1)
Attack = false
end
end)
That should work. Let me know if it doesn't.
