ClickDetector not detecting mouse clicks when camera is set to scriptable

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hey!
Thanks for taking the time to view my post.
I need to fix an issues with my click detectors as they are not detector Mouse1 clicks when the camera is in scriptable mode.

The ClickDetector that is assigned to the fusebox switch is functioning normally when the player’s camera is in its default follow mode, however, when the camera switches to a scriptable mode and moves to a certain position, the detectors no longer detect anything.
I’ve uploaded a video showing my problem and here is the code that is controlling the camera through a localScript in StarterGui
I actually dont know what the proper course of action is, any help is appreciated.

local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local camPart = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("camPart")
local camera = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Camera")

local fusebox = game.Workspace.Fusebox
local prox = fusebox.ProxPrompt.ProximityPrompt

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Char = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local toggle = false 

prox.Triggered:Connect(function() -- triggered from proximity prompt 
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
		local tween = game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(camera, TweenInfo.new(1), {CFrame = camPart.CFrame + Vector3.new(2,0,0)})
		tween:Play()
	Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Anchored = true
	--teleports the player away
	Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame = Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame + Vector3.new(100,100,100)
	toggle = true
end)

uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	if toggle == true then
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W or input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.A or input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S or input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.D then
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Follow
			Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Anchored = false
			--teleports the player back
		Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame = Char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").CFrame - Vector3.new(100,100,100)
		toggle = false
	end	
	end
end)

It might just be the MaxActivationDistance causing the problem, maybe try setting it higher

  1. The distance might be a problem

  2. It might not work in that mode(I’m pretty sure)

make your own click detection with

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer.GetMouse()
mouse.Button1Up:Connect() -- when left mouse button is pressed
mouse.Hit -- instance that the mouse is pointing at
