actually just hold on im gonna record a video showing everything

#23

as @Razor_IB said “you have to connect events” now what you showed us in the screenshot was:
Click.MouseRightClick(function()
ir maybe you changed the script already and still not working which is odd

#24

putting a == for the if statement just makes the jumpplatform a unknown global

  1. You are not connecting the RightMouseClick event to a function , you are directly calling it.

  2. GloveMode.JumpPlatform ← This function returns nil upon calling so your if condition : if GloveMode.JumpPlatform() then will never run.

because the right click is for changing modes for the glove

#28

i dont think you really get what we are saying here… id like you to try adding this:
Click.RightMouseClick:Connect(function()

You have to connect events to function , else it won’t run . You can’t call events like functions . Also read the second thing I told again.

#31

you prob should try the second thing @Razor_IB said

#32

This won’t make any difference… it’s been said 2 times that the if statement isn’t ever going to run-

@BuilderityRBLX Put a print inside the MouseClick event before the if statement, and you should see it print. Put it inside that if statement, it won’t print. Your function never returns and the if statement doesn’t run.

Make the JumpPlatform function return any value

#37

i dont know anything about returning value stuff …

#38

First, add this to JumpPlatform() function in your script. (Last Line)

return true

Then, change your clickdetector script to this(also make it a local script and put it in starterpack):

local clickdetector = game.workspace:FindFirstChild("TheNameOfTheClickDetectorPart").ClickDetector
clickdetector.RightMouseClick:Connect(function()
     local PlatformMode = require(script.PlatformMode)
     local GloveMode = require(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack.Tool.GloveModule)
     local modulefunction = GloveModule.JumpPlatform()
     if modulefunction == true then
          PlatformMode.JumpPlatform()
     end
end)

that gave me a idea

yes, starter gear does replicate in clients… meaning that thats better to do!! and mostly could fix the problem

nope, still didnt work :grimacing:

@BuilderityRBLX it whould fix the problem since if you call the StarterGear it whould mean its the server… but when you call the main player’s backpack it whould work, maybe what was happening is the connect thing and the second problemo was the server could see it but not the client… anyways

making it short whould be:

ur calling the tool on StarterGear meaning it does the changes to the server and not the client
