Flashlight Problem

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Yo guys i think am having a problem here.


the problem is when a player uses the flashlight and the other one does it stops at a player and starts at the other ones and vise versa.
i just want to make all of the players use it normally.

the system is about Remotes in replicated storage and local script below the startercharacterscripts and a script in the serverscriptservice

#3

Could you please show the scripts for this?

StarterCharacterScript local script:

local Input = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Delevier= game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Remotes.Equip
local Delevier2= game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Remotes.Unequip
local Bool1 = script:WaitForChild("Bools"):FindFirstChild("CoolDown").Value
local Bool2 = script:WaitForChild("Bools"):FindFirstChild("Equipped/Unequipped").Value
local Script = script
Input.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key)
	if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and Bool1 == false and Bool2 == false then
		Bool1 = true
		Bool2 = true
		print("Sending")
		Delevier:FireServer(Bool1 , Bool2)
		wait(0.75)
		Bool1 = false
	else
		if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.F and Bool1 == false and Bool2 == true then
			Bool1 = true
		print("Sending")
			Delevier2:FireServer(Script)
			wait(0.75)
			Bool2 = false
			Bool1 = false
	end
	end
	
end)
--Mobile
if Input.KeyboardEnabled == false and Input.MouseEnabled ==false then
	if Bool1 == false and Bool2 == false then
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.FlashlightGUI.Enabled = true
		local Button = 	game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.FlashlightGUI.FlashLightButton
		Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
			
			if Bool1 == false and Bool2 == false then
				Bool1 = true
				Bool2 = true
				print("Sending")
				Delevier:FireServer(Bool1 , Bool2)
				wait(0.75)
				Bool1 = false
			else if Bool1 == false and Bool2 == true then
					Bool1 = true
					Bool1 = true
				print("Sending")
				Delevier2:FireServer(Script)
				wait(0.75)
				Bool2 = false
				Bool1 = false 
				
		  end
		end
     end)
	end
end

the serverscriptservice script:

local EquipRemote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Remotes.Equip
local UnEquipRemote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Remotes.Unequip
local FlashLight = game.ReplicatedStorage.FlashLightModel.Model:Clone()
local Animations = script.Animations
local EquipAnim = Animations.Equip
local UnEquipAnim = Animations.Unequip
local Weld = Instance.new("Motor6D",FlashLight.Grip)
local Allow = script.Value.Value
local Function1 = EquipRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Plr , Script)

	--Variables
	print(Script)
	local Char = Plr.Character
	local Load1 = Plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(EquipAnim)
	local Load2 = Plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(UnEquipAnim)
	---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	FlashLight.Parent = Char
	Weld.Part0 = Char:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
	Weld.Part1 = FlashLight.Grip
	Load1:Play()
	UnEquipRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	
		Load1:Stop()
		Load2:Play()
		wait(0.7)
		FlashLight:Destroy()
		--Restarting
		script.Disabled = true
		script.Disabled = false
		------------
	end)
end)

No clue why you’re sending the script for, and the unequipremote should be outside the equip remote.

Do you mean i should delete the Script found in the :FireServer?

Yeah )()()()()()()()()()()()()()

Actually there is nothing changed.

I know, but I just saved you from doing useless stuff.

But the issue is that you’re using the same cloned model of flashlight, you don’t even create one for each player.

#11

How do i create new one for each player?

#12

Also the Animations play for each player when the remote is fired

#13

You could just clone it when equip and destroy it when unequip. You can use a table to sort this out.

#14

Do you think when i do this when firing the remote every player will also get flashlights and plays the equip animation?

#15

Should i instance a new Remote from the local script so it be local?

#16

Yep, that will work for everybody. no, matte4r of fact, 1 remote is enough for this.
