i'm trying to get this hyperion skript to work but i'm not sure how to

[wet tapir]

you should share what you expect and what happens

otherwise people can not help you

add a debug message after the condition and see if it happens

if not, you know that part is wrong

  if player's tool is iron sword named "&6Hyperion":
    send "debug"
    set {_block} to block 8 in front of player
    teleport player above {_block}
    create a fake explosion 1 meter above the player
    push player up at speed .1
    damage all entities in radius 10 of player by 50
    set {hyperion.%player%} to 1
    wait 0.1 seconds
    set {hyperion.%player%} to 0```

i'd also recomend using uuid and list variables
