ClickDetector giving diffrent inputs based on tool in hand

[psychorium]

I want to make my value change based on what tool im clicking with but i cant even click the button while holding it out my code looks like this (first i click then pull out the tool and it dissapears) and heres how i want it to work (https://gyazo.com/a4fa6719980824c7be0dc181007469da)

local cauldron = game.Workspace.cauldron
local value = cauldron.IngredientValue

button.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
	local char = player.Character
	local scroom = char:WaitForChild("Scroom")
	if scroom then
		value.Value = value.Value ..",Scroom"
        scroom:Destroy()
	end
end)

Replace “WaitForChild” with “FindFirstChild”

click detectors do not work while holding a tool
use this to figure out how to fix

How can I make a player click on a ClickDetector while holding a Tool?

You can do this on the client side using mouse.hit (https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/property/Mouse/hit/index.html) and checking if they hit a block that you want it to do something with. [this is only if you really can’t get it to work], and using https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/event/Mouse/Button1Down to see if they are clicking. Example: local Players = game:GetService("Players") local localPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer -- from a LocalScript local mouse = loc…

a few suggestions on how you detect the tool too
shouldnt use :WaitForChild() this will slow down the script a lot. use :FindFirstChild() and check if it exists
also make sure the character exists before checking for stuff in it because the character may not exist (happens to me a lot)
