Similar to a lot of battlegrounds i want a parry/blocking system, parry will occur right as the player presses f, after a certain amount of time, it will change to blocking until they let go, currently doing this via attributes on the char

was thinking of doing smthn similar to

detect user input
apply parry attribute
wait x amount of seconds
remove parry attribute and add block attribute

then

detect user let go of key
set both parry and block attributes to false

was just wondering if theres another more efficient way of doing this

This is pretty much how I did it, should work fine

#

Attributes are pretty optimized

Did the same

#

Might use states at some point

#

And possibly connect user input through unreliable remotes

literally just made a parry ability, just a prototype but the way i did it was for anything i wanted to be parryable, i just added a tag called "parryable"

#

and used workspace:GetPartsInPart() to detect all objects in the parry area

#

if an object has the tag, it sets the object's position to just right in front of the player

#

and for things like melees since my game's an fps and i mainly added this just for rockets, any bindable events with the tag under a detected object are fired
