hello everyone!
i’ve been trying to make a boombox that sticks to your back when unequipped, although, as the title says: i’m getting a problem
after testing with two people: i used the boombox, and unequipped it:
my friend who tested with me told me he couldn’t hear it at all, or see the boombox, and i realized: “oh damn it this entire thing is client-sided”, and i need some help making it work on the server, which would be pretty damn helpful.
here’s the structure of the tool
(rgui is the gui for the playing itself.)
the server script:
local root = script.Parent
local play = root.play
local song = root.Handle:WaitForChild("Sound")
root.Unequipped:Connect(function()
song.Volume = 0
end)
root.Equipped:Connect(function()
song.Volume = 1
end)
play.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, sid)
sid = tonumber(sid)
if not sid then
song:Stop()
return
end
song.SoundId = "rbxassetid://".. sid
song:Play()
end)
and here’s the local script:
local tool = script.Parent
local event = tool.play
repeat wait() until plr.Character
local rGui = nil
local con = nil
local rcons = {}
tool.Equipped:Connect(function(mouse)
con = tool.Activated:Connect(function()
if rGui == nil then
rGui = tool:WaitForChild("rGui"):Clone()
local mf = rGui:WaitForChild("MainFrame")
local tb = mf:WaitForChild("TextBox")
table.insert(rcons,
mf:WaitForChild("PlaySong").Activated:Connect(function()
event:FireServer(tb.Text)
end)
)
table.insert(rcons,
mf:WaitForChild("StopSong").Activated:Connect(function()
event:FireServer(0)
end)
)
rGui.Parent = plr.PlayerGui
end
end)
end)
tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
if rGui ~= nil then
rGui:Destroy()
rGui = nil
end
for _,v in pairs({table.unpack(rcons), con}) do
if v then
v:Disconnect()
end
end
table.clear(rcons)
end)
i’m unsure if the weld script is needed, but if anyone needs it: please tell me in the replies, i’ll send it.
thanks everyone! hope someone can help me out here.
