Hi devs, I have a small issue. Recently I have been trying to make a shop using leaderstats. I wanted it to give an item. I used a remote event to give the item to the person but i noticed that all cloned items in the backpack dont work after they are given, how do I fix this? Ill send the scripts:
--Local Script
local Periastron = script.Parent
Periastron.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
RemoteEvent:FireServer()
end)
-- ServerScriptService
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local leaderstats = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")
local moneyValue = leaderstats:WaitForChild("Money")
if moneyValue.Value >= 5000 then
moneyValue.Value = moneyValue.Value - 10
-- Give the item to the player
local item = game.ReplicatedStorage.Items.ClassicPaintballGun:Clone()
item.Parent = player.Backpack
else
print("Not enough money")
end
end)
Solution:
In your tool you would have a LocalScript which would make it work.
You need to make your LocalScript a ServerScript instead. The reason for this is that LocalScripts don’t exist on the server, meaning that when you clone your tool there is no script inside of it. So to summarise, just change your LocalScript inside of the tool to a ServerScript.
I was gonna say the same thing, however local scripts and server scripts behave very differently so I don’t think switching is a good idea, instead just put the tool in server storage. And make sure you are using a Server Script to clone th
e tool.
that won’t fix anything. If you clone the tool whilst it is in server storage and there is a local script inside the tool, the local script still won’t clone
No. It does clone it… I do it alot in quite a few games. I used to have issues with tools and replicated storage. But when cloning them from server storage all is fine.
