You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. **I made a script to put click detectors in all parts of a tool, then when they click the tool it equips that is the only way I want them to be able to pick the tool up, although I am not sure how I would keep the player from picking the tool up by touching it

To prevent it from being picked up, you can just remove the TouchInterest from the tool’s handle.

This isn’t exactly what you are looking for but there are several topics on the forum about this and I would advise that you do research before posting a topic.

Interaction System Optimization

There’s always a better way to do something, in this case, it would be the usage of CollectionService. I’ve written a reply on a post similar to this about making an interaction system that outlines some good practices. You can find it here. Generally speaking it’s not horrible to do do math calculations every frame, as long as you’re not doing unnecessary math calculations. For my systems, I use a combination of math calculations and raycasting to find the closest visible interaction object. …

Removing the TouchInterest from the Handle doesn’t do anything

I found that setting the Handle’s ‘CanTouch’ to false worked.
