Hello everyone,
I have been trying to change a part’s property locally (only the person who pressed the button can see the change) and it doesn’t seem to work is it even possible? If so can you please link me to the wiki page that tells me how? Thank you
You do so on a local script, check the API for both a script and a local script to understand what each of them do.
It could be a testing issue if you are already doing it properly
What’s the script you’re working with? It’s possible that you’re just doing it incorrectly, most properties can be set locally.
I’m using a local script and Change the property from there, the change works but it’s global not local
They can be set locally, however, when I change it using a local script it changes the part globally not locally
How are you testing this? Make sure you simulate a server with at least 2 players to check
That’s how I check if the changes are global or not
Which properties are you setting? Remember the network ownership of unanchored parts does not belong to the server.
Again, the script you’re working with would be helpful.
Apologies I said the part instead of the children of the part(which is a SurfaceLight). I am changing the “Enabled” property
Also I can’t access my pc right now sorry.
I think you’re just checking incorrectly.
--local script
task.wait(3)
workspace.Baseplate.SurfaceLight.Enabled = true
print(workspace.Baseplate.SurfaceLight.Enabled)
--server script
local sl = workspace.Baseplate.SurfaceLight
sl.Changed:Connect(function()
print(workspace.Baseplate.SurfaceLight.Enabled)
print("Replicated!")
end)
Neither of the server script print calls executed.
local sl = workspace.Baseplate.SurfaceLight
task.wait(5)
print(sl.Enabled)
First true is from local script.
Thanks I think I understand now
