Error with my click-to-damage tool

[reckride2700]

Hello!

I am currently making a tool that makes someone take damage if you click on them with it.

Inside of the tool is a script and a local script, which uses a remote event stored in replicated storage to communicate back and forth.

All of the code seems to work, however there is one dilemma: when you click someone else, the tool damages yourself instead of the player you clicked.

Here is my code:

Here is the local script:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local tool = script.Parent
local mouse = player:GetMouse()

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	local target = mouse.Target
	
	if target.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Damage:FireServer(target)
   else
		end
end)

Finally, here is the normal script:

game.ReplicatedStorage.Damage.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(target)
	print("Recieved")
	
	local humanoid = target.Character.Humanoid
	
	print(humanoid.Parent)
	
	humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health - 10
	print("Health reduced")
end)

I’ve tried looking everywhere, but I can’t find a good solution.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

The first argument of OnServerEvent is always the player that fired the remote,

replace this line:

@reckride2700

game.ReplicatedStorage.Damage.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(target)

with this:

game.ReplicatedStorage.Damage.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Caller, target)
