Aura

[echo thorn]

so my friend made some auras and i had this idea to make an rng game, but i’m not sure how to let the player actually equip an aura and i’m not sure how to set up the chances script.

Only have one aura rn, all the vfx is in the torso which is what is making this so difficult for me.

do you want to reply to this or me lol, i have some code to share

[glad yarrow]

what i would do for equiping auras is to give each player a string variable with the name of their aura and keep the auras themselves in server storage.
then have an event that fires whenever the player equips an aura that deletes their current aura and places a copy of the selected aura into the player

[glad yarrow]

i dont have code rn go ahead lol

local SS = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local AuraHandler = {}

function AuraHandler.EquipAura(player, char, aura)
if not player or not char or not aura then
warn("missing perameters.")
return
end

local Auras = RS:FindFirstChild("Auras")
if not Auras then return end

if not Auras:FindFirstChild(aura.name) then
    warn(aura.name ..  "wasnt found in replicatedstorage")
    return
end

local auraFolder = char:FindFirstChild("AURA")
if not auraFolder then
    auraFolder = Instance.new("folder", char)
    auraFolder.name = "AURA"
end

if  auraFolder:GetChildren() > 0 then
    warn("The aura:" .. auraFolder:GetChildren() [1].name .. "is already equipt")
    return
end

local auraClone = Auras[aura.Name]:Clone()
auraClone.Parent = auraFolder

local function cloneAndWeldParts(sourcePart,  targetpart)
    for _, part in ipairs(sourcePart:GetChildren()) do
        if part:IsA("BasePart") then
            local correspondingPart = targetpart:FindFirstChild(part.Name)
            if correspondingPart then
                local auraPartClone = part:Clone()
                auraPartClone.Parent = correspondingPart 
                auraPartClone.CFrame= correspondingPart.CFrame

                local weld = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
                weld.Part0 = correspondingPart
                weld.Part1 = auraPartClone
                weld.Parent = correspondingPart
            end
        elseif part:IsA("Model") then
            local correspondingpart = targetpart:FindFirstChild(part.name)
            if correspondingpart then
                cloneAndWeldParts(part, correspondingpart)
            end
        end
    end
end
cloneAndWeldParts(auraClone, char)

if not auraFolder:FindFirstChild(aura.name) then
    local value = Instance.new("StringValue", auraFolder)
    value.name = aura.name
    
end

-- Animation 
-- Sound

warn(aura.name .. " equipped to " .. char.name)

end

function AuraHandler.UnequipAll(player, char)
if player and char then
local auraFolder = char:FindFirstChild("AURA")
if auraFolder then
local auraName = auraFolder:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Folder")

        --Animiations
        --Sound
        
        for _, child in char:GetChildren() do
            for _, secondChild in child:GetChildren() do
                if secondChild.name == child.name then
                    secondChild:destroy()
                end
            end
        end
        
        warn("the aura" .. auraName.name .. "was sucessfully destroyed")
        auraName:destroy()
    end
end

end

return AuraHandler

this is the code i used to weld the parts onto the body, make sure this code is pasted into a module script inside of serverscriptservice

just make sure that you have a folder inside of Replicated storage called "Auras"

[ocean ferry]

** You are now Level 1! **

[rain hamlet]

inside the Auras folder create another folder called whatever your aura called

inside that folder add a part and set the invisibility to false

make sure the part is named the exact same as the part your welding them to

like this

the last thing you will have to do is to create a script inside of serverscriptservice with this code

local SS = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")
local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local AuraModule = require(SS.AuraHandler)

local Auras = RS.Auras
local Remotes = RS.Remotes

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
local AurasFolder = Instance.new("Folder", char)
AurasFolder.Name = "AURA"
end)
end)

Remotes.AuraEquip.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, aura)
local char = player.Character

AuraModule.EquipAura(player, char, aura)

end)

Remotes.AuraUnequipAll.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local char = player.Character

AuraModule.UnequipAll(player, char)

end)

with this code you need to make sure you have a folder called remotes inside of Replicated storage with the labeled remotes

To actually equip and unequip you will need to make a ui button with a local script that "fires" the event you made remotely

you can use this for it

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.AuraUnequipAll:FireServer()
end)

and vice versa with the Auraequip event

I hope this works for you, and if it doesnt make sure all your variable names are the same as mine or mine are the same as yours

if all else fails ask ai assistant to help

if you need me to explain anything to make it easier to understand i can

copy and pasting into discord can be a bit funny though, so it wont paste correctly

for the modulescript code (there will be syntax erros on the lines) right before the comma put a underscore
