Problems with ClickDetectors!

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hey everyone!
So I have a couple of problems with the ClickDetectors in roblox studio.

Whenever I put a ClickDetector in a part, or anything it doesn’t work.

Not just my scripts don’t work, the icon of the mouse doesn’t show up.

Any help?

Can you show an image or video of the problem, as well as your scripts?

What is the MaxActivationDistance of the ClickDetector set at?

Is it even enabled? Your cursor’s not even turning into a pointer.

32 by the looks of it, don’t see that being too small though.

@NeonTaco135 it’s turned on, you can’t disable it by looking at the Properties window in the video, they might have disabled OBS mouse capture.

The resolution isn’t small btw @SDGenesis_Alt, FHD is good. Also I’d recommend changing your display name as you could get banned for impersonation.

Oh yeah, you’re right. I could have sworn I saw an Enabled property before.

Try making the localscript a serverscript. Local scripts dont’t run on the server

I know, and that’s why there is a remote event and a local script with a server script.

#14

If you want to fire the clickevent using a localscript put it in a service that replicates to the local player not workspace or sss

#15

Local scripts do not work in workspace if they are not under a Player’s Characters folder.

Luckily for you, ClickDetectors are server side, so you can do .MouseClick:Connect() on your server side script and you can get the Player along with it as an automatic argument.

API references:

Script is in StarterGui for instance

local Part = workspace.Part
local ClickDetector = Part.ClickDetector

ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr)
	print(plr.Name.." has clicked the part on the client")
end)

Not sure why, but the cursor is still normal. The script still works though. Thanks to everyone that helped!

Crazy how fast people can help you on devforum. Expected to have to wait days.

I know it’s unrelated but use a VPN set to Europe e.g. UK

I know, there is no way to remove the display name even with the VPN
