Hello fellow developers!
I have a rather puzzling problem I just can’t seem to figure out.
Problem:
I’m trying to call the ‘Shoot’ function in this ModuleScript from my Local Script ‘Gun’, however as the error below states, ‘Shoot’ cannot be found.
The code within the module used to be in the client script - which absolutely used to work, but to create cleaner and more re-usable code, I separated the two.
I also added a simple ‘Print’ function to the ModuleScript to see if the issue lay in the parameters or body of the shoot function, however, the same error occurs.
Client Script (called 'Gun')
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local tool = script.Parent
local handle = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")
local barrel = player.Character:FindFirstChild("Barrel") or handle:Clone()
barrel.Name = "Barrel"
barrel.Anchored = true
barrel.CanCollide = false
barrel.Transparency = 0
barrel.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
barrel.Parent = player.Character
local shootModule = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ShootModule")
local offs,equipped,MB1,targetWall,debounce,status = Vector3.new(),false,false,nil,0,0
local reloadTime = 1
local rateOfFire = 1.2
local caliber = 1.5
function Fire()
local from = barrel.Position-- and barrel.Position or (handle and handle.Position or player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position)--tool:FindFirstChild("Barrel") and tool.Handle.Position or player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position
local too = barrel.Position + (barrel.CFrame.LookVector*(mouse.Origin.p-mouse.Hit.p).Magnitude)
+ Vector3.new(
math.random(-100,100),
math.random(-100,100),
math.random(-100,100)
)/1000 * (mouse.Origin.p-mouse.Hit.p).Magnitude * 0.02
shootModule.Shoot(player,from,too,barrel,rateOfFire,caliber)
end
function Reload()
debounce = reloadTime
end
tool.Deactivated:Connect(function() MB1 = false end)
tool.Activated:Connect(function() MB1 = true
while MB1 do
Fire()
wait()
end
end)
tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
mouse.TargetFilter = player.Character
equipped = true
end)
tool.Unequipped:Connect(function() equipped = false end)
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function(dt)
debounce = debounce > 0 and debounce - dt or debounce
if (equipped) then
--if (offs == nil) then
offs = player.Character.Head.CFrame:ToObjectSpace(handle.CFrame).p - player.Character.Head.Velocity/100
--end
local cf = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame * CFrame.new(offs)
barrel.CFrame = CFrame.new(cf.p, mouse.Hit.p) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(debounce * 30),0,0) * CFrame.new(debounce,debounce*1.5,debounce*2)
barrel.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
end
end)
Module Script (called 'ShootModule')
local m = {}
local actionRemote = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ShootRemote")
local debounces = {}
m.CreateProjectile = function (player,caliber)
local projectile = Instance.new("Part")
projectile.Anchored = true
projectile.CanCollide = false
projectile.BrickColor = BrickColor.White()
projectile.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,2.5) * caliber
projectile.Parent = player.Character
projectile.Transparency = 0
projectile.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0
Instance.new("BodyForce",projectile).Force = Vector3.new(0,projectile:GetMass() * workspace.Gravity,0)
return projectile
end
m.Render = function (player,from,too,caliber)
local p = m.CreateProjectile(player,caliber)
p.CFrame = CFrame.new(from,too) * CFrame.Angles(0,0,math.random(0,360))
p.Velocity = (p.CFrame.LookVector*999).Unit * 300
game.Debris:AddItem(p,1)
p.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local valid = player and player.Character and hit and not player.Character:IsAncestorOf(hit)
if (valid) then
p:Destroy()
actionRemote:FireServer(
from,
too,
p.Size
)
end
end)
end
m.Print = function(msg)
print(msg)
end
m.Shoot = function (player,from,too,barrel,rateOfFire,caliber)
print("Mod",player,from,too,barrel,rateOfFire,caliber)
local debounce = debounces[player.Name] or 0
if ((debounce) > math.random(0,3)*rateOfFire/10) then print("Debounce",player,debounce) return end
debounce = rateOfFire
debounces[player.Name] = debounce
m.Render(
player,
from,
too,
caliber
)
end
return m
When I fire the gun, this error occurs
If you could please take a moment to check over my code, perhaps even test it yourself, I would be very greatful. 
Thanks
