Huh… I see you’re using a proximity prompt in your error code. In this case, what is script.Parent? Is it a proximity prompt?

#22

his script is inside a proximity promt in the workspace not the tool itself

#23 
script.Parent = player.Backpack
#25

The script is inside the backpack? Edit: Also, what is the thing that is being triggered to activate this script?

#26

I’m not holding the tool? What are you talking about?

#27

the tool is inside replicated storage so the player cant equip the tool. since all tools comming from there are cloned and not the original

#28

No. The script is not inside the backpack.

#29

the trigger is a proximityPromt

#30

Wait, so I have to set it to false for it to work?

#31

Yeah, that’s what I thought. I think you might have to use ProximityPrompt service.

#32

could be, but the weird thing is. it works in one studio but not in the other.

#33

That’s the issue, the exact same script worked in a different game. Why would that be necessary?

#34

Yeah, I don’t understand that part.

#35

No, it must be true.

#36

Then that wouldn’t be the issue.

#37

Well, typically when dealing with ProximityPrompts, you would use:

local ProximityPromptService = game:GetService("ProximityPromptService")

ProximityPromptService.PromptTriggered:Connect(function(prompt,player)
end)
#38

well triggerd works too, for all my games. but just not for his main game. thats so weird?

#39

Maybe the player variable in the original script is actually the prompt being triggered, and a second argument to the function would be the player? You could try printing out the value of player just to be sure.

#40

Yeah, I’m just thinking of anything that might work.

#41

Nope, still the same issue.
