How do i make this work

[rose mesa]

What work

[craggy token]

Very interesting

[plucky shadow]

the detecton part is just collision detection volumes
when they collide with object you check if that object has "sword" tag (or some other tag that you have only on the weapons)
for the effect its triccy but you can use collision position probably and teleport the effect to that
for the part where the sword move away from one another, its impossible

best thing you can do for last is to just disable attacking for some time

#1321098169693507604

btw, collision detection volume is beta content if i remember correctly so enable that in room settings

[plain plank]

i've never used collision detection

I tried it like once but it took up a lot of circuit space

[meager agate]

You can edit into the object board and delete the chips that you don’t need

[plain plank]

ik that i just don’t know what to get rid of

[rose mesa]

Whatever you aren’t using

[plain plank]

whats impulse on player

[rose mesa]

If you want a player to be launched upon being hit by the collision volume

[plain plank]

oh then yea i keep that

wait what should i keep if i want it to only work on players and other collision volumes

[rose mesa]

You can delete everything that isn’t object or player related

I think collision volumes count as objects

[plain plank]

how do i make collision volumes detect each other again

[plucky shadow]

when it hits something, check if that something has a tag of a weapon

[plain plank]

I tried collision data but even that was confusing

[plucky shadow]

prob detec for collision with another part of your weapon
f.e. model

oh wait

[plain plank]

im tryna make every single sword that i made clashable yknow?

[plucky shadow]

collision data get object -> if object is valid (yellow input is yellow output of prev chip) -> if has tag (purple tag of weapon, yellow input is yellow output of collision data get object)

[plain plank]

Theres no if object is valid chip

well so far this is what i got

[plucky shadow]

try "if is valid"

oh

[plain plank]

it says error

[plucky shadow]

show it

[plucky shadow]

oh, that

it because the volume didnt hit anything yet

connect orange input of "if is valid" to "on object hit" and hit something

[plain plank]

still error

collision data get object is kinda confusing when object ports on the right

[plucky shadow]

all chips have inputs on the left and output on the right

#1321098169693507604

[plain plank]

ik

i just need help to fix this error

[plucky shadow]

you hit some object with the volume, right?

[plain plank]

yes

[plucky shadow]

you had it enabled before you hit with it?

[plain plank]

its on a player joined event

[plucky shadow]

did any player join after you set it up?

[plain plank]

oh so that was the problem

now it works

[plucky shadow]

thought so

[plain plank]

or the error fixed

whats the next step

[plucky shadow]

now you has a basic check if collision hit another sword

basicaly, everythig after "has tag" output will trigger when your swords clash

[plain plank]

wait so if i add the collision volumes to all my other swords itll work for just those few chips?

[plucky shadow]

you'll have to clone those chips to every collision

[plain plank]

oh ok

[plucky shadow]

and if you have the tag on all swords, it will work

basicaly, your sword will clash witrh anything that has a sword tag

[plain plank]

this might sound tricky but how to make it that when you clash it sends the players the opposite direction from where they're facing

[plucky shadow]

make an event definition
name it "push player"
when sword clash, you use "event sender" (configure to event you made earlier, target is player and connect "get authority" (input is object from "collision data") to that
then make this:
event receiver (your event) -> velocity add (multiplier is -1, velocity is local player gaze direction, target is local player, max speed is anything you want. Play with multiplier and max speed for speed you want)

should work but if you try to hit an inactive sword you will knockback its last holder or room authority so be careufl with that ig

you dont have to clone the event definition and event receiver part for every sword btw but you do need to clone the sender part

anyways, ima go sleep
#1321098169693507604 <- good cv2 and other stuff guide

[plain plank]

whats the event sender part again? i made the definition have a player port unless i misunderstood

i don't think it worked

[plucky shadow]

U dont need variables in definition
Configure the event sender. Select your event and select "player" option in target

[plain plank]

bro i put the tag on the collision volumes but its clashing with the trigger handles

[plucky shadow]

does it really matter?
it still gives you an opponents sword that you can still use

[plain plank]

no i mean like it touches the trigger handle when i removed the tag from it

[plucky shadow]

does it return the handle when you touch its collision volume?

[plain plank]

wdym

[plucky shadow]

when you clash your sword normaly, does it return the collision volume or the handle?

[plain plank]

it says handle

[plucky shadow]

it should still work then

[plain plank]

it works but i don't want the trigger handle to clash so it works

i wanted the collision volume to clash

[plucky shadow]

you can try to add a position check that would check if it collided with the handle but im not sure thats neccecary

[plain plank]

idk why but when i removed the tag from the handles my friend tested it it still clashed with the handles

[plucky shadow]

it just returns the "parent" object of the volume

basicaly it returns an object a volume is clamped to

[plain plank]

bru

so how do i switch it to the collision volumes that get clashed on contact

[plucky shadow]

dot they already clash if they touch eahother?

[plain plank]

no the trigger handles do

[plucky shadow]

try to configure the sword model to physical

and add a tag to it

[plain plank]

does making it physical make the clashing work

or like the collision work

[plucky shadow]

prob the collision

im not suree if collision can detect decorations

[plain plank]

no wonder

[plucky shadow]

did it help?

[plain plank]

doin it rn

it worked

ty

[plucky shadow]

np

[plain plank]

@plucky shadow

tried the clashing but only 1 person got knockback
