EquipTool working in studio but not in-game

[RockGodDev]

I’m using a custom hotbar/inventory system for items, and i’ve made it where you can equip tools, which works in studio:

However, when I go into the actual game and try using the tool, nothing happens.

Here’s the code that handles the equipping and unequipping part of the tool.

While it may be pretty inefficient, still should sync across both studio and game, but it doesn’t.

Is there any errors within the Roblox client dev-console?

[RockGodDev]

Nope, both studio and in-game are clean, and the equipTool function does actually run, but nothing happens.

[error12345307]

That’s weird. Can you try making the script code copyable so I can try?

[RockGodDev]

Like pasting it here? Sure,

repS:WaitForChild(“Remotes”):WaitForChild(“ItemEquip”).OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, item, status)
local plrInfo = player:WaitForChild(“PlayerInfo”)
local char = player.Character
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild(“Humanoid”)

if status == true then
	if not serverS:WaitForChild("Draggable"):FindFirstChild(item) then warn("add the item into server storage") return end
	if not plrInfo:WaitForChild("PlayerInventory"):WaitForChild("Backpack"):FindFirstChild(item) and not plrInfo:WaitForChild("PlayerInventory"):WaitForChild("Hotbar"):FindFirstChild(item) then return end
	
	local tool = serverS:WaitForChild("Draggable"):FindFirstChild(item):Clone()
	humanoid:EquipTool(tool)
	
	for i, v in tool:GetChildren() do
		if v:IsA("BasePart") and v:FindFirstAncestorOfClass(workspace.Name) then
			v:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
			v.CanCollide = false
		end
	end
	
	for i, v in humanoid.Parent:GetChildren() do
		if v:IsA("BasePart") then
			v:SetNetworkOwner(player)
		end
	end
else
	humanoid:UnequipTools()
end

end)

formatting seems a bit broken, so apologies for that but im not sure how to fix it

I have no idea if some kind of instance called “PlayerInfo” exists in the player.

[RockGodDev]

The PlayerInfo is unimportant and just acts as an anti cheat, removing it changes essentially nothing.

Restarted studio and now it doesn’t work here either, so at least theres that, thanks for trying either way

[MrNobodyDev]

The dumbest reason for it not working, but we all make this mistake, is did you publish the update to ROBLOX!

[RockGodDev]

yep, numerous times and added indicators to make sure 100% that it updated.

[RockGodDev]

yet the problem was simply restarting studio and it synced up ;-;
