just now realizing, you should’ve have your buy button script inside of your camera manipulation script in order to get the camera that is active. I need to modify it, there is no other way you could detect what camera is currently active through a separate script.
Im going to be on tomorrow so I can help you then,
my discord is Odawg566#9616 if you want to pm me
Okay, so me and @Odawg566 talked on discord and we still couldn’t find a solution to this shop yet. I need help to identify a problem in this code and how to fix it. The error that occurs is hard to describe, so you can try it out for yourself here. epic fighting simulator - Roblox
It allows you to purchase one weapon and equip it and unequip it, but then it breaks if you try to unlock anything else. If you can spot an error in the code, please let me know. I can provide screenshots of the explorer tab as well if you need to know where something is located. (Also, preformatted text doesn’t like it when I copy and paste things, so I apologize for that.)
Thanks in advance!
