Gui Button not giving tool

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am trying to make a button give a tool, but it’s not working. I tried scripting, but it still doesn’t work. Please help me.

Code:

local Button = script.Parent
local Cup = game.ReplicatedStorage.Large.Cup
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local CupClone = Cup:Clone()
	CupClone.Parent = Player.Backpack
end)
#2

Is this a local script or a normal script?

I am using a local script in the button.

How does the hierachy in ReplicatedStorage look like for the Cup? It could be something related to that. Any errors also?

#5 
Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    print("Event fired")
	local CupClone = Cup:Clone()
	CupClone.Parent = Player.Backpack
    print("Gave "..Player.Name.." the tool") 
end)

Try this and see what outputs?

The flipping heck what

Why’d you put it inside ServerStorage instead of ReplicatedStorage? The client won’t be able to see Objects inside there

Np, also just to clarify here:

ServerStorage is not accessable across ROBLOX’s client/server boundaries, what I mean by that is

Imagine I put a Orange inside a Tree, now if I’m a person just walking along I’m only able to see the Tree, but not the Orange

ReplicatedStorage can be accessed by both the client & server :slightly_smiling_face:
