Can I Have Some Help With Particles?
I've been trying to make particles appear from the player's left and right arms upon f being pressed. This is what I got:
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
print("Activating Powers . . .")
local fire = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
fire.Parent =
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)
How would I continue / improve this script?

You didn't parent the ParticleEmitter to anything... TheeDeathCaster 2368 — 7y

I want to parent it to the left and right arms but I don't know how? adryan1352 2 — 7y

You would need to use two particle emitters as parts are only emitted from the parent User#5423 17 — 7y

You could create the first one then parent it, then clone it as a new variable and parent it. More efficient than creating two from scratch. But that was probably implied in kingdom's comment. Pejorem 164 — 7y

local character = game.Character
function onKeyPress(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F then
print("Activating Powers . . .")
local fire = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter")
fire.Parent = game.Workspace.Character:FindFirstChild("Left Arm")
local clone = fire:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Worspace.Character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
end
end
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)

That's the script I got so far, but are those the parents of the arms? adryan1352 2 — 7y
