Can anyone tell me how to make a damage-over time upgrade

Help

Like when you buy the upgrade, everytime you hit them, it does like 3-5 ticks of damage, but only when you buy the upgrade.

when the upgrade is bought.

Sorry to ask but, can you explain what you are trying to do a bit more?

4

yes indeed just when the upgrade is bought

5

Are you trying to make something damage someone over time when you buy an upgrade?

6

like when you buy the upgrade with the vending machine, when you hit someone with a bullet, it does some extra little damage. multiple times

7

yeah basically that…

8

like if you have every played Minecraft, when you hit someone with a poison arrow, they take some extra damage on top of the arrow damage.

9

Sadly it’s not possible.

10

You can’t really do a fire/burn or poison mechanic sadly; the furthest my mind goes is just simply doing extra raw damage

no like a gadget bullet

12

this would be easy except for the effects part

13

yeah

it’s not possible to track if a player is getting hit by a gadget bullet

unless you do something crazy but then again the community hasn’t found a way

it’s probably possible but extremely difficult to find

it would be Theoretically possible though to make this possible if you die from the bullet and possibly respawn directly where you died and have an effect from knockout

:sob:

ain’t no way

but I’m sorry there’s no way. You can’t track hp, physical hp.

Next, you can’t track if a player gets hit. Theres a if player fires gadget but not a if player hit

Unless you do 0.75x damage then make it so they take more damage with poison but you can’t because you don’t know who you hit

so unless a magical miracle discovery happens right now, for me, I can’t solve this and most other gimkitters can’t either.

also gimkitsuggestor can you tell me the idea so I can add on to it if it does actually work
