Buttons dont work

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:08pm

Hello there, I can’t figure out why but the buttons don’t work on my emotes system, I tried to add print sections to help me debug it, but it turns out that the button doesn’t get registered.

Client script:

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local com = game.ReplicatedStorage.Communicator

local currentlyplaying
local currentlyplayingval = false

repeat wait() until plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
wait(1)

script.Parent.BestMates.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	print("clicked")
	if currentlyplaying == "BestMates" and currentlyplayingval == true then
		print("fired to stop emotes")
		com:FireServer("StopEmotes")
		script.Parent.Visible = false
	else
		com:FireServer("PlayEmote","BestMates",{plr = plr, char = char})
		script.Parent.Visible = false
		currentlyplaying = "BestMates"
		currentlyplayingval = true
	end
end)

script.Parent.GetGriddy.Animated.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if currentlyplaying == "Griddy" and currentlyplayingval == true then
		com:FireServer("StopEmotes")
		script.Parent.Visible = false
	else
		com:FireServer("PlayEmote","Griddy",{plr = plr, char = char})
		script.Parent.Visible = false
		currentlyplaying = "Griddy"
		currentlyplayingval = true
	end
end)
	
script.Parent.InDaParty.Animated.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if currentlyplaying == "InDaParty" and currentlyplayingval == true then
		com:FireServer("StopEmotes")
		script.Parent.Visible = false
	else
		com:FireServer("PlayEmote","InDaParty",{plr = plr, char = char})
		script.Parent.Visible = false
		currentlyplaying = "InDaParty"
		currentlyplayingval = true
	end
end)

script.Parent.JubiSlide.Animated.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if currentlyplaying == "JubiSlide" and currentlyplayingval == true then
		com:FireServer("StopEmotes")
		script.Parent.Visible = false
	else
		com:FireServer("PlayEmote","JubiSlide",{plr = plr, char = char})
		script.Parent.Visible = false
		currentlyplaying = "JubiSlide"
		currentlyplayingval = true
	end
end)

Server script:

local animmodule = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.EmoteModule)
local gmusic = game:GetService("SoundService").SoundGroup

function fadein(plr)
	if plr.PlayerGui.Main.Settings.LowVolume.Value == false then
		for i, music in gmusic:GetChildren() do
			music.Volume = 1.5
			wait(0.05)
			music.Volume = 1.4

			music.Volume = 1.3

I’d be very happy if anyone could help me out

I’m assuming that “clicked” doesn’t output from line 13, even though you click the button?

BIushney · November 2, 2024, 1:14pm

Hey, any errors/output that could help us?

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:14pm

Yes, thats correct. It doesn’t print anything.

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:15pm

Nothing, nothing prints or any output occurs.

SeargentAUS · November 2, 2024, 1:15pm

Can you please quickly confirm that the button has the Interactable property turned on?

BIushney · November 2, 2024, 1:15pm

Okay, can you try printing something after “wait(1)” part?

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:17pm

Yes, It’s turned on.

BIushney · November 2, 2024, 1:18pm

can you try adding a print statement after the wait?

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:18pm

Alright I tried it, but it didn’t print anything too…

BIushney · November 2, 2024, 1:18pm

what I thought, try removing the "

repeat wait() until plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
wait(1)

"

lines

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:18pm

Hold on, I reset, and it printed.

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:21pm

Alright, that works. But the module doesn’t recognize the Humanoid anymore.

SeargentAUS · November 2, 2024, 1:23pm

try adding back the

local char = plr.Character or plr.ChracterAdded:Wait()

line.

LittleDevYT2 · November 2, 2024, 1:25pm

No need, I just removed the params thingy cuz I won’t even need it because when the remote is fired, the player is included in there too so i just gave the function the player instead of “params” and it worked. Thanks for the suggestion though.
