Oh, I really do not know what the problem is then. Check for errors in the output. Try to put prints to debug the script.

#48

error = H>request<HSakDevRblxDoNotCopyMessage.TXT>CJA"ServerScriptService.THIS IS THE SCRIPT DEV FORUMS:8: attempt to index nil with ‘WaitForChild’ "

#49

Okay then. Delete the script in ServerScriptService and make a localscript in StarterCharacterScripts.

local character = script.Parent
local flashlight = game.ReplicatedStorage.Flashlight:Clone()
flashlight.Parent = character

flashlight is now deep inside of me but theres no light be emited

edit: the issue is that the flashlights inside of me but its position doesnt stay inside of me when i move

#51

Use a weld constraint. I think your problem is solved now, right?

#52

weld constrant? whats that? do i just put a weld inside it and it welds to me automattically

#53

You can also put a Motor6D if you want to animate the flashlight. You look in the properties of the Motor6D and select Part0 as Torso or something and Part1 as the flashlight.

#54

i put a weld contstrant inside of flashlight and its position is updating with mine but its still not emitting light

#55

Put a surface light inside of the flashlight.

#56

i made a new part named Flashlight and put a point light inside of it but now its not updating the position anymore

#57

i actually see the flashlight but its not inside of me its just sitting here on the ground

local surfacelight = Instance.new("SurfaceLight")
surfacelight.Parent = flashlight
local weld = Instance.new("Motor6D")
weld.Part0 = flashlight
weld.Part1 = character:WaitForChild("Torso")
weld.Parent = flashlight
surfacelight.Angle = 90
surfacelight.Brightness = 7.83
surfacelight.Range = 60

Just make an Idle Animation for the flashlight being in front of you.
