Help and Feedback Scripting Support

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    An Inventory that stores scripts or abilities that dont have tools and a player can equip more than One Ability

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    idk how to make this

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I tried Disabling the script then Enabling it when the player clicks A Textbutton and it shows equipped, tried multiple things like this don’t know any other thing to try, Also tried parenting it t the backpack and made the ability work only when in the player backpack but it still didnt work, tell me if you know a better way to make an equip and unequip system for something thats not a tool or a part.

local RS = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local equipbutton = script.Parent
local fireBall = RS:WaitForChild("Magic_MagicConduit"):WaitForChild("Sakura Shot"):Clone()

local Equipped = RS:WaitForChild("Equipped")
Equipped.Value = false


equipbutton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	
	if Equipped.Value == false  and equipbutton.Text == "Equip" then
		Equipped.Value = true
		equipbutton.Text = "Equipped"
		fireBall.Parent = player.Backpack
	end
end)
-- This is an example Lua code block

Why reinvent the wheel when the functionality is already provided by the ‘Tool’ class?

#4

I need no ‘Tools’ Cuz my weapons will be tools but the magic abilities need to be able to be used while the sword is equipped

#5

And ill try what u said thanks tho

#6

Also i want how it is in Anime fighting simulator where u can use many abilities without unequiping anything

They click different Keys that do different attacks

#7

I would recommend using something like ContextActionService to check when a key is pressed to fire a magic ability.

  1. This could create a memory leak
  2. MouseButton1Click events do not fire on server scripts

As for OP’s question you could just play a custom animation with your custom tool on equip and on unequip stop the animation and remove tool from character

#9

Wait so what does that do the unequip and equip animation u stated

#10

User input, then most likely using a remote function for the server to do sanity checks and allow the client to play the tool equip/unequip animation

#11

no but i dont want to use tools to make the abilities also can u explain more how that will make an equip and unequip system for the magic in my game

#12

I Figured it Out did it with a ModuleScript , but now i will go learn how to save what i did
