#Why does the hitbox not care about this boolvalue?

Im testing out module scripts and i just applied one to hitboxes for an attack. However the hitboxes dont respect the boolvalue and keep killing the player even though they should only take 25 damage.

#

im really confused since it was working early, probably a bug with either wifi or the module

#

the module is getting a copy of the bool and when it changes that copy it doesnt affect the original

#

I assumed that was the problem, however im not sure how i could fix it?

#

would i keep the value outside the module?
