In my script, It says if i click a part it detects if I am holding tool, if so it will print a statement and delete the tool. However when I hold out the tool and click the part, it does not print or do anything.
But, if I click the part without holding the tool it says,
No tool found.
Also when I equip the tool it doesn’t print out
Tool equipped
Any solutions?
local part = script.Parent
local ClickDet = part:FindFirstChild("ClickDetector")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
if ClickDet then
ClickDet.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
local tool = player.Backpack:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Tool")
if tool and tool:IsA("Tool") then
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
print("Tool equipped")
end)
print("Tool found")
tool:Destroy()
else
print("No tool found")
end
end)
else
warn("ClickDetector not found")
end
local part = script.Parent
local ClickDet = part:FindFirstChild("ClickDetector")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
if ClickDet then
ClickDet.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
local tool = player.Backpack:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")
if tool then
print("Tool equipped")
print("Tool found")
tool:Destroy()
else
print("No tool found")
end
end)
else
warn("ClickDetector not found")
end
You need to check both the player’s Backpack and Character for the tool.
local part = script.Parent
local ClickDet = part:FindFirstChild("ClickDetector")
if ClickDet then
ClickDet.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
-- Check both Backpack and Character for a tool
local tool = player.Backpack:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool") or player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")
if tool then
print("Tool equipped")
print("Tool found")
tool:Destroy()
else
print("No tool found")
end
end)
else
warn("ClickDetector not found")
end
Why does it say “Recieved Remote” when i join the game?
ServerScript:
local part = script.Parent
local ProxPrompt = part:FindFirstChild("ProximityPrompt")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local Backpack = player.Backpack
if ProxPrompt.Triggered then
ReplicatedStorage.SellRemote:FireClient(player)
end
end)
Local Script:
SellRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
print("Recieved Remote")
local equippedTool = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Tool")
if equippedTool then
equippedTool:Destroy()
end
end)
I also want to give the player credits when it destroys the tool (recieved the remote)
I have tried to call the leaderstats but this error pops up:
15:37:27.031 Workspace.planeboy2021.SellItem:50: attempt to index nil with ‘leaderstats’ - Client - SellItem:50
Local script:
SellRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player)
print("Recieved Remote")
local equippedTool = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Tool")
local Credits = player.leaderstats.Credits
if Credits then
print("True")
end
if equippedTool then
equippedTool:Destroy()
end
end)
And yes i have already created the datastore for the leaderstats
If the proximity prompt script is a serverside script you can just skip the firing of the event an put the code inside of there. You are firing a player but you are not sending the players with it, also you would only be destroying the tool client sided and adding credits client sided. Thus that is why you should have it in the serverside script with the proximity prompt.
What you are doing rn is basically.
Server sends nil to player → player puts nil into the player var → you can’t get leaderstats from nil aka nil.leaderstats
Ok I have set the leaderstat in the server using return with a remote function, and now it works!!!
Server Script:
local part = script.Parent
local ProxPrompt = part:FindFirstChild("ProximityPrompt")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
ProxPrompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
local remote = ReplicatedStorage.SellRemote:InvokeClient(player)
local leaderstats = player.leaderstats
local Credits = leaderstats.Credits
if remote then
print(remote)
Credits.Value = Credits.Value + remote
end
end)
