Eror with making a Spring

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, I’m trying to make a spring between the mouse hit to the gun flare position.

The Error I’m getting: Attachments must be parented to a PartInstance.

Here is the code

Local Script:

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function(Mouse)
	Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
		game.ReplicatedStorage.sendMsg:FireServer(game.Players.LocalPlayer, Mouse.Hit)
	end)
end)

Script:

game.ReplicatedStorage.sendMsg.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, mousepos)
	local gorp = plr.Character.taser.Flare
	
	local coil = Instance.new("SpringConstraint", gorp)
	
	local fAttach = Instance.new("Attachment", gorp)
	local sAttach = Instance.new("Attachment", mousepos)
	
	coil.Attachment0 = gorp
	coil.Attachment1 = mousepos
	
	
end)

What is gorp? It’s not a BasePart, so your script isn’t working

#3

the gorp is the gun part.
like when the spring should be , from the gun part to the mouse.Hit

#4

Oh, I see this. mousepos is sent as Mouse.Hit, so you are trying to parent the Attachment to a CFrame value. Perhaps you meant gorp or another part

#5

i meant to parent the Attachment to a cframe value.

#6

That doesn’t work, instances can be parented to instances only. I am not sure what you meant to do. Attachments can’t be parented to non-parts.

#7

So how can i get the part from the CFrame? or there is another option instead of Mouse.Hit???

#8

You can use Mouse.Target which gives you the part the mouse is hovering over.

#9

Still Not working. its still giving error:
Attachments must be parented to a PartInstance.

#10

Then that means you are hovering over nothing, so Mouse.Target is nil.

#11

Nope , I tried to print the target and it shows liamazu1000, my username, So how does i click my character if i click baseplate???

Here is the code:

game.ReplicatedStorage.sendMsg.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, mousepos)
	local gorp = plr.Character.taser.Flare
	print(mousepos)
	local coil = Instance.new("SpringConstraint", gorp)
	
	local fAttach = Instance.new("Attachment", gorp)
	local sAttach = Instance.new("Attachment", mousepos)
	
	coil.Attachment0 = gorp
	coil.Attachment1 = mousepos
	
	
end)

When sending a remote to the server, you don’t include the player, just your arguments only.
game.ReplicatedStorage.sendMsg:FireServer(Mouse.Hit)

Ty. But know im getting this error:

Expected Attachment got Part for SpringConstraint:Attachment0.
#14

I got it working but i can’t see the Rope , my character is just walking weird

Gotta make the rope visible, through the book property in the documentation. Although the walking around weirdly seems to mean the rope constraint is working.

#16

Oh, When i used instance.new() it made the rope invisible. Thank you
G’day!!!

Worried about that, it automatically sends the local player, so this

with your arguments should be
