Make a ProximityPrompt change the properties of something

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello. I’m attempting to make a ProximityPrompt change the properties of a union I made, once triggered. However, the script doesn’t seem to do anything. Here is the code

local egg = game.Workspace.EggsAlreadySpawned:WaitForChild("egg0809")

script.Parent.Triggered:Connect(function()
	egg.Transparency = 0
	egg.CanTouch = true
	egg.CanCollide = true
	egg.Attachment.ParticleEmitter.Enabled = true
end)

Is the Triggered event firing? It seems like it would work. Try adding a print() command so you can see it. Another possible solution is that you are referencing the wrong egg or proximity prompt.

Just tried it. For some reason, it did not print. The egg and proximitypromt are correct as well.

I used to have problems with ProximityPrompts before, including them just not firing, but not when it’s the right one being referenced.
As a debugging test, I used to change one of the proximity prompt’s object / action text just to make sure they are the right one. Then, when I’m in game testing, the text would have changed or not. Have you tried this?

Is this in a Script or Local script?

If it’s a local script, then the script needs to be located in either StarterGui, ReplicatedFirst, or StarterPlayer

Yes, it was indeed a LocalScript. It works now. Thank you for helping me!
