knockback attack not working

[sudden arch]

it worked when i tried to make it do damage, but when i tried to make it deal knockback with a linearvelocity it would not work.

[worthy sonnet]

use GetPartBoundsInBox

creating a touched listener event right when the client fires the remote would be unreliable

[sudden arch]

the remote event is for the hitbox creation, not the touched functon

basically

a local script with userinput service handles the attack

the userinput service function triggers the remoteevent

then the touched function is inside the function triggered by the remoteevent

ok bu the way ur doing it gives the potential for spin hitbox

they can just spin their character until the hitbox part touches the player

have u tried this

[sudden arch]

wait where do u use that

nvm i didnt read the documentation lemme do that first

im assuming i use that instead of the humanoidrootpart?

yo

yea i tried that and it didnt work either

wait, i think i need to add attachments to the linearvelocity first

ok i added an attachment and it still didnt work

ok i figured it out, i had to parent the attachment to the same parent as the veloicty itself
