So I plan on making a game where I can attack enemies using a fireball for example. My plan currently is making the fireball in a local script and running a touched event for the fireball inside that local script. When touched itl send a remote event to the server changing the health
My only problem with this is that I feel like its unsafe as the touched event should be on the server instead of the client.
Would this way be appropriate or is there a better alternative?

Well actually, the client would fire to the server to shoot a fireball. If the server accepts it, itl fire to all clients to shoot a fireball for that specific player. This way the magic/skill that is used in the client would seem much more faster/smoother. Only problem is idk how to deal with the hitboxes and touched events.
alright
but im not sure if that is more effective as compared to just firing a fireball from the server; since thats kinda what the server does
but regardless
ill go edit it it now
The thing is, when i run the magic skill on the server, ingame it feels super laggy due to the latency from client to server. That why i was thinking on coding the skill locally instead and letting the server handle hitboxes etc. I just dont know if this would be the best method sadly
