Roblox only automatically scales a single part from an accessory, not the whole accessory

Hi, how do i make accessories that contain multiple welded parts scale based on the avatar size?
I have a pickaxe accessory (not a tool) with a right grip attachment, the pickaxe handle automatically scales with the humanoid size but the rest of the parts do not.

For whatever reason it (only) scales the handle part
which is the one containing the welds and the attachment

/If making the whole accessory scale automatically is not possible, how do i stop roblox from automatically scaling that handle part from the accessory?

#2

Are all the parts in a model? if not, could they be?
nevermind i didnt see that it was an accessory

#3

This literally makes no sense.

#4

The parts are an accessory, not a model. They’re all in an accessory, i posted pictures too as you can see.

if you didn’t understand what I was trying to say, you couldve asked what i meant…

#6

yes I’m aware of that now, I didnt see that at first, thank you

You could try parenting the other parts to the handle, if that’s an option. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I tried parenting it and the result is the same.

PS: Pickaxe on the right is how its supposed to look like.

In that case I honestly don’t know what’s going on, because I just tried this out by replicating how yours is and its working fine for me.
Maybe you could try weld constraints/another type of weld?

Did you remember to change the humanoid scale values too?image

Does your accessory have a SpecialMesh?

yes, still worked for me, im not sure what happened to make mine work but it sounds like @IGOTHISLOL knows what they’re doing more than me, lol

If there is a SpecialMesh under the handle, then you could try following this:

What do you mean by “under the handle”? Do you mean
1 the handle has a child who has a special mesh
or
2 some of accessory’s children have special meshes

The first one. If you do have a special mesh as a child of the Handle directly, you could try playing around with the offset and size to get it to what you want.

I’ll play around in Studio and try to update you

#16

Ah, i do not, the handle is a union and only has welds and the attachment inside it.

Right now, I can’t use studio, since I’ve been formatting on my phone, but I’ll for sure get back to you. I want to solve this as well!

Sorry it took so long, but the best I can think of is to either change the handle into a model, and loop through the parts to make them bigger, or use a for loop to try and change each BasePart’s size as seen here

Ah yes i thought about this too, i found an easier way. I manually scale the accessory before its cloned and then i do accessory.Handle.Size = accessory.Handle.Size / (your avatar scale size, mine is 3) and then i also edit the accessory attachment to fit with the new scale.

I’ve been thinking about this more and im pretty sure this happens because the handle is a UNION, i tried to manually scale it and yeah, it doesn’t scale the same way normal parts do.
Tried it again, it scales the accessory handle part (the one that contains the attachment).

I didn’t read the entire thread in detail, but have you tried manually scaling each of the parts of the accessory by the humanoid scaling size? You might have to leave the handle as-is, but the rest should be scalable that way.
