This (one part of my punch script) currently fliings the player in the direction parellel to where they touched the hitbox. How would I make it fling them in a set direction?

by passing in the set direction you wanted

I'm very new idk how to do that i just tried this because it came to mind. could you explain further?
jade delta
you said you have a set direction? just pass that in instead of using (hrp-hitbox).unit
m1 go brrrr

how do i quantify set direction? as in what format is it like (x, y, z)?
or do i have to use a variable for it?

(hrp-hitbox).unit is a direction
cframe.lookvector is also a direction
and so is vector.yaxis
i'm not going to give you specific solutions, not here to write it for you. i'm just telling you how you'd go about it.
jade delta
pass in whatever direction you want like its a function parameter like function hitbox(direction,etc...)
magic quartz
im kinda dumb with directions, math, etc
jade delta
a position is technically also a direction with magnitude in it, it's the direction from 0,0,0 and how far it is
magic quartz
wait it is?
jade delta
yes
magic quartz
does it literally just have no velocity and is just a direction?
jade delta
(hrp-hitbox) is also a direction with a magnitude in it, that's why you use .unit to make it a pure direction vector

velocity is usually done with a direction vector, plus magnitude which represents the force

im gonna be honest i had the flu in my physics unit
