hears my main script
script.Parent.Fire.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,mousePos)
local raycastParams = RaycastParams.new()
raycastParams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {player.Character}
raycastParams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist
local raycastResult = workspace:Raycast(script.Parent.Handle.Position,(mousePos - script.Parent.Handle.Position)*300,RaycastParams)
if raycastResult then
local hitpart = raycastResult.Instance
local model = hitpart:FindFirstAncestorOfclass("model")
if model then
if model:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
model.Humanoid.Health -= 30
end
end

hears my shooting script
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse ()
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
script.Parent.Fire:FireServer(mouse.Hit.p)
end)
Can you perhaps describe in greater detail what the issue is? Is the gun dealing damage? Are you getting any errors?
Btw, I noticed your script doesn’t check if the gun is actually equipped when you click. Unless your gun is ALWAYS equipped, you might want to change that.
Edit:
I think your issue might actually be caused by you not checking for the humanoid instance correctly.
if raycastResult then
local hitpart = raycastResult.Instance
local model = hitpart:FindFirstAncestorOfclass("model")
if model then
if model:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
model.Humanoid.Health -= 30
end
end
end
The ray would most likely be hitting a bodypart, like the torso, and not the actual model. So what you instead should do, is find the Humanoid in the parent of the bodypart, as that is where it will be located:
if raycastResult then
local hitpart = raycastResult.Instance
local model = hitpart.Parent
if model then
if model:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
model.Humanoid.Health -= 30
end
end
end
```so whats wrong is that my gun is doing nothing at all and i have no idea how to fix that
is this the whole script? and where is this script located, along with the local script?
the longer one is the server script
ill try that really quick thank you
theres a red line under the end

my gun still does not shoot and all of the script is right
as what @kosava mentioned above, you should make an equipped and unequipped function to check if you have a gun or not. Maybe that’ll work
i can pull out the gun but it is invisible in my inventory and also i have no idea how to make one of those functions yet
