What exactly is the issue? Giving just code and nothing else can be confusing and make it a lot harder to find the issues with it.

“Doesn’t work” is not enough information to fix a script. If there is an error, list the error with the line number it happens on. Also give us the desired behavior, and the actual behavior of the script.

When pressing the button, the player should do a somersault, but this does not happen. The problem is most likely in the line: ```
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(onDash)
