Hi. I'd like to apply a part to all players when they join the game, but I lack the experience. Could someone please give me an example of how this can be done? Thanks!

How do I apply a hitbox to all players?

-- welds a part to everyone that spawns
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
function weldBetween(a, b)
local weld = Instance.new("ManualWeld", a)
weld.Name = "Weld"
weld.C0 = a.CFrame:inverse() * b.CFrame
weld.Part0 = a
weld.Part1 = b
return weld
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
local Root = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local part = Instance.new("Part")
-- customize the part however you want here
part.CanCollide = false
part.Massless = true
part.Size = Vector3.new(4, 5, 2)
part.Transparency = .5
part.CFrame = Root.CFrame
part.Parent = Character
weldBetween(part, Root)
end)
end)
To detect when a player would join the game, you could use this:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
end)
and if you want to add a hitbox, you might put it in ServerStorage and make a clone of it to put in the player, perhaps like this
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local clone = game.ServerStorage.hitbox:Clone()
clone.Parent = player.Character
end)
But from then you would need to have a script inside the hit box to make sure it stays on the player at all times, maybe like this
local hitbox = script.Parent
local character = script.Parent.Parent
while wait(0.05) do
hitbox.Position = character.HumanoidRootPart.Position
end
But in the end, I would think it would just be easier to detect a hit using the HumanoidRootPart inisde a player
