Hello guys!!

I am making a gun system and I got my first problem.

So the problem is that I want when the player clicks on a part that is in a model to print the model name instead of the part name!!

Here the code:

local eq = false
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	eq = true
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	
		eq = false

end)

mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
	if eq == true then
		local Target1 = mouse.Target
		if Target1.ClassName == 'Part' then
			print(Target1.Parent.Parent)
		end
	end
	
end)

Thank you in advance!!

Pretty sure it’s because you’re using

if Target1.ClassName == 'Part' then

try changing it to

if Target1.ClassName == 'Model' then

because with the original code you’re pretty much looking for a part, not a model, then change the
print to print(Target1)

hope this helps

i don’t think this will work because if i only do print(Target1) this will print a part and not a model

#4

it should print the model because Target1 is defined as a model, but in your script it’s defined as a Part. Give it a try and let me know

#5

I tried it does not work because the target of the mouse is a part

#6

If you are trying to find the model that the part is inside of, just do:

Target1.Parent.Name

I hope this helps :slight_smile:

Yeah but for example if it’s an accesory the parent of the part is the accesory like We have the accesory handle and afther the Accesory

Then, you need to find the first model up, so you do this:

if Target1.Parent.ClassName == 'Model' then
 --Code Here
elseif Target1.Parent.Parent.ClassName == 'Model' then
 --Code Here
else
 print('No Model')
end

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
