Hello Devs! if you could give me some advice that would be awesome! please I have been stuck on this for a couple weeks and have been asking around on here but get little feedback
What do you want to achieve?
I want a pet in my inventory to show up when clicking Equip and disappear when clicking again.
What is the issue?
Pretty much have the code already laid out but its not working correctly… no pet shows up when I click equip. the button works fine.
code is a script inside Server Script Service (0 errors in output) :
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I tried moving the script out of Server Script Service but that was no help. Also tried adding a remote event but didn’t code it correctly due to that not working either
I don’t think you’ve given enough information for your question to be answered. I don’t even know what the function equip pet does. Please send more code before we can help.
alright my apologizes thanks for reply!
this is my script in Server Script Fully
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local petModule = require(game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("PetModule"))
local pet = petModule.chooseRandomPet()
local function equipPet(player,pet)
local character = player.Character
if pet ~= nil and character ~= nil then
if character:FindFirstChild(player.Name.."'s Pet") then character[player.Name.."'s Pet"]:Destroy() end
if character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("attachmentCharacter") then
character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("attachmentCharacter"):Destroy()
end
pet.Name = player.Name.."'s Pet"
pet:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame)
local modelSize = pet.PrimaryPart.Size
local attachmentCharcter = Instance.new("Attachment")
attachmentCharcter.Visible = false
attachmentCharcter.Name = "attchmentCharacter"
attachmentCharcter.Parent = character.HumanoidRootPart
attachmentCharcter.Position = Vector3.new(1,1,0) + modelSize
local attachmentPet = Instance.new("Attachment")
attachmentPet.Visible = false
attachmentPet.Parent = pet.PrimaryPart
local alignPosition = Instance.new("AlignPosition")
alignPosition.MaxForce = 25000
alignPosition.Attachment0 = attachmentPet
alignPosition.Attachment1 = attachmentCharcter
alignPosition.Responsiveness = 25
alignPosition.Parent = pet
local alignOrientation = Instance.new("AlignOrientation")
alignOrientation.MaxTorque = 25000
alignOrientation.Attachment0 = attachmentPet
alignOrientation.Attachment1 = attachmentCharcter
alignOrientation.Responsiveness = 25
alignOrientation.Parent = pet
pet.Parent = character
end
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local equippedPet = Instance.new("StringValue")
equippedPet.Name = "EquippedPet"
equippedPet.Parent = player
local inventory = Instance.new("Folder")
inventory.Name = "PetInventory"
inventory.Parent = player
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
if game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Pets"):FindFirstChild(equippedPet.Value) then
equipPet(player,game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Pets"):FindFirstChild(equippedPet.Value):Clone())
end
end)
equippedPet.Changed:Connect(function()
if equippedPet.Value ~= nil then
if game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Pets"):FindFirstChild(equippedPet.Value) then
equipPet(player,game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Pets"):FindFirstChild(equippedPet.Value):Clone())
end
end
end)
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.EquipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,petName)
local pet = game.ReplicatedStorage.Pets:FindFirstChild(petName)
if pet and player.PetInventory:FindFirstChild(petName) then
player.EquippedPet.Value = petName
end
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.UnequipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
player.EquippedPet.Value = ""
if player.Character:FindFirstChild(player.Name.."'s Pet") then
player.Character[player.Name.."'s Pet"]:Destroy()
end
if player.Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChild("attachmentCharacter") then
player.Character.HumanoidRootPart:FindFirstChlid("attachmentCharacter"):Destroy()
end
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.EquipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,petName)
local pet = game.ReplicatedStorage.Pets:FindFirstChild(petName)
if pet and player.PetInventory:FindFirstChild(petName) then
player.EquippedPet.Value = petName
end
end)
With this:
game.ReplicatedStorage.EquipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,petName)
print("Equip pet RE triggered")
local pet = game.ReplicatedStorage.Pets:FindFirstChild(petName)
if pet and player.PetInventory:FindFirstChild(petName) then
player.EquippedPet.Value = petName
print("changed pet name!")
end
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.EquipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,petName)
print("Equip pet RE triggered")
local pet = game.ReplicatedStorage.Pets:FindFirstChild(petName)
if pet and player.PetInventory:FindFirstChild(petName) then
player.EquippedPet.Value = petName
print("changed pet name!")
end
end)
to:
game.ReplicatedStorage.EquipPet.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,petName)
print("Equip pet RE triggered")
if game.ReplicatedStorage.Pets:FindFirstChild(petName) ~= nil and player.PetInventory:FindFirstChild(petName) ~= nil then
player.EquippedPet.Value = petName
print("changed pet name!")
end
end)
if helps, I was changing inventory client side before and it didn’t work but when I fire it on server I can get the pet to show up. and also the pet inventory doesn’t show any pets inside server side as well
