ClickDetector Mouse Icon Not Working

[catlover4103 (Erlking)]

i have changed the default mouse icon by using a local script but now when i hover above click detectors the cursor icon i set doesnt work? iv done some research and this is a roblox issue im just asking here if theirs a way to circumvent this problem

local m = player:GetMouse()
m.Icon = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=569021388"

Clickdetectors have their own property called CursorIcon

maybe you can use that?

[catlover4103 (Erlking)]

yeah i was but iv done research and CursorIcon is pretty buggy from looking at other posts, if you assign your own mouse icon then it doesnt seem to work? i’m just tryna see if theirs anyway to get around this.

[Dev_Sie (Sie)]

oh I didn’t know it was buggy

maybe this could work?

local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

Mouse.Move:Connect(function()
	local MouseHovering = Mouse.Target
	if not MouseHovering then return end

	if not MouseHovering:IsA("MeshPart") and not MouseHovering:IsA("BasePart") and not MouseHovering:FindFirstChildOfClass("ClickDetector") then return end
	Mouse.Icon = "icon"
end)

if i were to go that route would it not be easier to go to using clickdetector hovering event?

[Dev_Sie (Sie)]

yeah that works to (charcharchar)

[catlover4103 (Erlking)]

the solution you gave me kinda just switches the icon permanately instead of only doing it whilst hovering and im not really sure how i could modify it to work sorry for the reply

[Dev_Sie (Sie)]

local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()

Mouse.Move:Connect(function()
	local MouseHovering = Mouse.Target
	if not MouseHovering then return end

	if not MouseHovering:IsA("MeshPart") and not MouseHovering:IsA("BasePart") then 
		Mouse.Icon = "NormalIcon"
		return 
	end

	if MouseHovering:FindFirstChildOfClass("ClickDetector") then
		Mouse.Icon = "ClickDetectorIcon"
	else
		Mouse.Icon = "NormalIcon"
	end
end)

You could use a loop to check if the mouse target has a click detector inside it?

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
   if mouse.Target:FindFirstChildOfClass("ClickDetector") then
      mouse.Icon = "HoverIcon"
   else
      mouse.Icon = "Normal"
   end
end)

This is a better method as it uses less resources, this will only run the code when the mouse is moving.
