RPG & Fighting Game Integration

# Overview

Role-Playing Games and PvP fighting games combine close-quarters sword combat, abilities, spells, and currency transactions. RAC ensures combat fairness while supporting fast-paced action.

# Melee Attack Validation Example

-- Server melee skill script
local RAC = require(game.ServerScriptService.RAC.Core.Engine)
local MeleeSwingRemote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.MeleeSwing

MeleeSwingRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(attacker: Player, targetModel: Model)
    local targetHumanoid = targetModel:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
    if not targetHumanoid then return end

    -- Validate melee swing (Max reach 18 studs)
    local isValid, approvedDamage = RAC:ValidateHit(attacker, targetModel, 45, "Melee")
    if not isValid then
        return
    end

    targetHumanoid:TakeDamage(approvedDamage)
end)

# Knockback & Spell Exemption Handling

Spells or heavy sword strikes that fling an opponent through the air can cause RAC's SpeedDetector or FlyDetector to trigger on the victim.

To prevent this, grant a brief Exemption to the victim when applying knockback:

local function ApplyKnockback(victimPlayer: Player, direction: Vector3, force: number)
    -- Grant a 1.2-second exemption for the physics impulse
    RAC:AddExemption(victimPlayer, "SpellKnockback", 1.2)

    local root = victimPlayer.Character and victimPlayer.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
    if root then
        root.AssemblyLinearVelocity = direction.Unit * force
    end
end
