An error with emitting the particle

I really need help with emitting the particle based on how much the player has clicks. I have been struggling with this for over 4 hours and still cant find a solution even to such an easy - one might say - task. Please help.

This is what shows up after activating the tool:

How it is stored:

Here is the code:

toolEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	local part
	local att
	local partEmmit
	local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local hrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	local clicks = player.leaderstats:WaitForChild("Strenght")

	local function ToolName()
		if char:FindFirstChild("Fire1") then
			part = char.Fire1.Part:Clone()
		elseif char:FindFirstChild("Fire2") then
			part = char.Fire2.Part:Clone()
		else
			return
		end

		part.Parent = workspace.Stuff
		part.Anchored = true -- Important so it stays in place
		part.CanCollide = false -- No collision needed
		part.Transparency = .5 -- Fully invisible Part

		att = part:WaitForChild("Attachment")
		partEmmit = att:WaitForChild("ParticleEmitter")
	end

	ToolName() -- <<< CALL THE FUNCTION here!!

	local function emitterAmount()
		local emmitAmount

		if char:FindFirstChild("Fire1") and clicks.Value <= 50 then
			emmitAmount = math.floor(clicks.Value / 2)
		elseif char:FindFirstChild("Fire1") and clicks.Value > 50 then
			emmitAmount = 25
		end

		if char:FindFirstChild("Fire2") and clicks.Value <= 100 then
			emmitAmount = math.floor(clicks.Value / 4)
		elseif char:FindFirstChild("Fire2") and clicks.Value > 100 then
			emmitAmount = 25
		end

		if emmitAmount < 1 then
			emmitAmount = 1
		end

		return emmitAmount
	end

	-- Create a new Attachment

	local offset = hrp.CFrame.LookVector * 5
	part.CFrame = hrp.CFrame + offset

	local emitter = att:FindFirstChild("ParticleEmitter")
	if emitter then
		print("Emitter found: " .. emitter.Name)
		emitter:Emit(emitterAmount()) -- Use the calculated emitter amount
		print(emitterAmount(), "particles emitted!")
		print("Clicks:", clicks.Value)

		task.delay(0.5, function()
			part:Destroy()
		end)
	else
		warn("No ParticleEmitter found.")
	end
end)

bump - please if anybody can help i would be very thankful

#3

What is the issue exactly? It seems that you are already emitting particles based on player’s strength.

#4

I dont know why but it seems like the particle just doesnt emitt. I dont know why is it and i tried many things. Everything works besides the emittion

#5

What do you want to achieve when you perform the activity?

#6

I want the particle to emmit particles when the remoteEvent is fired

Review this code and try this one, see if it improves:

toolEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local part, att, partEmmit
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hrp = char:WaitForChild(“HumanoidRootPart”)
local clicks = player.leaderstats:WaitForChild(“Strenght”)

local function ToolName()
    local fire1 = char:FindFirstChild("Fire1")
    local fire2 = char:FindFirstChild("Fire2")

    if fire1 then
        part = fire1.Part:Clone()
    elseif fire2 then
        part = fire2.Part:Clone()
    else
        return
    end

    part.Parent = workspace.Stuff
    part.Anchored = true
    part.CanCollide = false
    part.Transparency = 0.5

    att = part:WaitForChild("Attachment")
    partEmmit = att:WaitForChild("ParticleEmitter")
end

ToolName()
if not part or not att then
    warn("No valid part or attachment found.")
    return
end

local function emitterAmount()
    local emitAmount
    local fire1 = char:FindFirstChild("Fire1")
    local fire2 = char:FindFirstChild("Fire2")

    if fire1 and clicks.Value <= 50 then
        emitAmount = math.floor(clicks.Value / 2)
    elseif fire1 and clicks.Value > 50 then
        emitAmount = 25
    elseif fire2 and clicks.Value <= 100 then
        emitAmount = math.floor(clicks.Value / 4)
    elseif fire2 and clicks.Value > 100 then
        emitAmount = 25
    else
        emitAmount = 1
    end

    return math.max(emitAmount, 1)
end

local offset = hrp.CFrame.LookVector * 5
part.CFrame = hrp.CFrame + offset

local emitter = att:FindFirstChild("ParticleEmitter")
if emitter then
    local amountToEmit = emitterAmount()
    emitter:Emit(amountToEmit)
    print(amountToEmit, "particles emitted!")
    print("Clicks:", clicks.Value)

    task.delay(0.5, function()
        part:Destroy()
    end)
else
    warn("No ParticleEmitter found.")
end

end)

No it still doesnt work. What do you think could be the issue here?

#9

Based on the picture, it seems the particle emitter is emitting, but too dark

#10

it might look like that but it really isnt. I am going to try doing it on a new baseplate

#11

try different texture or manipulate the properties especially on transparency, size, speed, and time

May I see the property of the particle emitter?

#12

Here is how the particle looks like:

#13

I think you should use :Emit(“put any number here”) stead.

to do that follow this code:

local ParticleEmit = script.Parent
ParticleEmit:Emit(1)

#14

i already tried that and it doesnt work

#15

OMG I FIGURED IT OUT. My attachment was moved. What i mean by that is the position of att wasnt the same as the part. I am sorry for taking your time, but i think that without you i wouldnt be able to do it.
