I have tried to google it, but cant find it.
It is probably a really easy answer to this question…
(tbh i feel a bit stupid to even ask it)
Is it a script or a setting that i can use so all players can pick up the same item.
For example: i have a door that players need to find cards to enter the door. but all players need to be able to pick up the card. not just the first that finds it… :slight_smile:
I hope u understand and ty for your time

You can put your tool model in the workspace and put a proximity prompt on it

then add this script :

local Prompt = script.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("ProximityPrompt")
local Tool = "Card" 

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
	if not player.Backpack:FindFirstChild(Tool) and not player.Character:FindFirstChild(Tool) then
		local tool = game.ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(Tool):Clone()
		tool.Parent = player.Backpack
	else
		print("You already have this tool!")
	end
end)

and put your tool in ServerStorage

then it will work like that

and if u have the tool it will print this :

I think that’s because you forgot to clone it, if the card is in at least 1 player’s backpack

This is how i understand it:
Handle, touchinterest and weld in workspace (plus the extra script and i changed the name to fit my tool)

card L1 in serverstorage?

Put the tool in ServerStorage, then clone the tool’s handle and move the clone to Workspace.
