CD.Triggered:Connect(function(Player)
	local tool = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")
	if tool == nil then end
	if tool.Name ~= nil then
		local Name = tool.Name
print(Name)

When proximity prompt is triggered this dont character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")

What is character? Try access the character through Player

yes, i did it

local player = players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character
#4

No need to define player twice in this case. You could use the Player parameter to get the character. It happens possibly because you have 'Player(localplayer)andPlayer(parameter)`

#5

I can say that tool’s name never can be nil. If it’s empty,it will be “”

#6

i changed, but its still dont working

local localplayer = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local character = localplayer.Character
local Humanoid =character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')
#7

local or server script?

#8

its local script
also , there is full script

local ss = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local localplayer = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local character = localplayer.Character
local Humanoid =character:FindFirstChild('Humanoid')

local Dirt = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
local CD = script.Parent
local chest = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Chest
local Click = script.Parent.Parent
local data = rs.FetchClientData:InvokeServer()

local counter = 0 

local db = false

local Z = chest.Position.Z
local X =  chest.Position.X
local Y = chest.Position.Y 
CD.Triggered:Connect(function(Player)
	print("t")
	local tool = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Tool")
	if tool == "" then end
	if tool.Name ~= nil then
		local Name = tool.Name
		if db == false then
			db = true
			local Y = chest.Position.Y + 1
			chest.Position = Vector3.new(X,Y,Z)
			counter += data[Name].Damage
			else
				if counter > 6 then 
					Click:Destroy()
			end
			wait(0.1) db = false
		end
	end
end)

What doesn’t work to be exact?

#10

the whole function, its dont printing anything too

#11

character is nil because the game hasn’t loaded yet
try local character = localplayer.Character or localplayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()

#12

changed, but the function dont running

#13

show me the output, it would definitely be appreciated

#14

Where is the script/local script located?

#15

notinh in output, he dont printing anything so the function dont run

#16

image in server storage, when the game starting this chest spawning in random position

#17

The problem is proximities don’t work with local scripts so that’s why. Only server scripts*

#18

tool must be equipped in order for the function to work, are you aware?

#19

The problem is as I said that proximity prompt’s don’t work with local scripts only server scripts. So he’ll have to fire and event from the server to the client.
