So I kinda messed up… I was writing my script for a while now and then I realized other players are unable to see the cloned pet (I’m cloning them through the local script)

local gamepassId = 719413770 -- Replace with the ID of your gamepass
-- Function to update button text based on gamepass ownership
local function UpdateButtonText()
local ownsGamepass = marketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamepassId)
button.Text = ownsGamepass and "Equip" or "Purchase"
end
-- Immediately update button text when the script runs

blackToothlessClone.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = blackToothlessClone.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame:Lerp(CFrame.new(newPosition), 0.05)

end
end

end

end

blackToothlessClone.Parent = playerFolder
end

if player.Character then
blackToothlessClone:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(CFrame.new(player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position))
end
button.Text = "Unequip" -- Change button text to "Unequip"
isPetEquipped = true
UpdatePetPosition()
end
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
ClonePet()
end)
marketplaceService.PromptGamePassPurchaseFinished:Connect(function(player, passId, wasPurchased)
if passId == gamepassId and wasPurchased then
print(player.Name .. " successfully purchased the gamepass. Granting particles.")
UpdateButtonText()
end
end)
If someone could split the code in LocalScript + ServerScript or instead make the pet visible to others, I’d appreciate it.
What I think you’ll need to do is to use Remote Events. Store a Remote Event in ReplicatedStorage and create a server script into ServerScriptService.
-
Server Script
game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”).RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
[The ClonePet() Script]
end)
-
Local Script
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
game:GetService(“ReplicatedStorage”).RemoteEvent:FireServer()
end)
You want to also add one for the UpdatePetPosition.
Also, remember to edit the GUI using “Player.PlayerGui” when you transfer the script to server script.

I tried but uh… the pet won’t clone
Well, I think it is cloning but I think the issue is that you would also want to create another remote event for UpdatePetPosition().
Just put it in the same server script and give that a try!
Can I replicate the movement on the client-side with the LocalScript? The server should automatically update the position of the object if it was cloned globally.
I don’t think that would work, you probably want to just do the movement in a server script and get the model by cloning in the server script or else the local player will see the model and movement but other players won’t see it.

The pet clones, but the position won’t update, it stays still.
Ugh, I give up. I’ll have to go sleep now and hopefully someone could help me out more by tomorrow.
Sorry, my mistake. When you clone the pet you would want to update its position after it’s been cloned.
One thing I would recommend is to not use remote events when updating the pet position since I only
see that you are using one pet. If this is also for multiple pets then if you want you can use a bindable function as an event function to put the cloned pet in the function like “Function:Invoke(pet)” and move the UpdatePetPosition in another server script just to keep things simple and tidy.
Just move the UpdatePetPostion() script under the CreatePet() so it won’t have a separate function for movement and make sure it’s under where the pet has been cloned where you create the variable for the cloned pet.
Also put “isPetEquipped” variable in the “PetReplicator:FireServer” brackets.
PetReplicator:FireServer(isPetEquipped)
local function CreatePet(player, isPetEquipped)
Remember to use your output to help and if that doesn’t then you can use print(“test”) to see where the problem occurs.
