Need help scripting a textbutton to clone a tool

[StevieTheFoxRBLX (AmeilaJonez)]

I want to achieve when you click a text button a tool clones into your backpack.

This is the issue, for some reason it is not cloning:

I’ve tried fixing the script, asking friends and such.

This is the script:

local Button = script.Parent
local Cone = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Rainbow Ice Cream Cone")

Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(Plr)
	local backpack = Plr:WaitForChild("Backpack")
	local ClonedIceCream = Cone:Clone()
	ClonedIceCream.Parent = backpack
end)

At “local Button = script.Parent”

try script.Parent.Parent instead

The MouseButton1Click event doesn’t pass the player as an argument to the function, it doesn’t pass any data at all, that’s why Plr is nil.

GuiButton.MouseButton1Click API reference

Instead you can get the player in a local script/client side by doing:

local Plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

Ok thanks! Would this work if I clicked the delete button to delete the tool from workspace? local Input = game:GetService(“UserInputService”)
local DB = Enum.KeyCode.Delete

if Input.InputEnded == DB then
script.Parent:Destroy()
end

No I don’t believe that would work since UserInputService.InputEnded is an event and has to be connected to a function.

Here’s a similar question which might help you.

I’d also start a new topic if I was you since this is really not related to the main question.
