Does anybody know how to make a System like Arsenal?
Like if you press Q the gun automaticaly switch?
Instead of Un-equipping, You press Letter Q to switch a gun
The Main gun will be a Sub-Machine Gun and a Secondary gun would be a Pistol

Insert this code into a LocalScript:
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Weapons = {"SMG","Pistol"}
local CurrentWeapon = Weapons[1]
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input, GPE)
if (not GPE) and Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
local Index = table.find(Weapons, CurrentWeapon)
if (Index + 1) > #Weapons then Index = 0 end
CurrentWeapon = Weapons[Index + 1]
print(CurrentWeapon)
end
end)
Now everytime the player presses Q, the weapons will shuffle
However, to equip them, please specify if your weapons are tools or something else, and where they are located in the explorer.
Yes they are. And they are placed in a Folder inside ServerStorage
I placed them in ServerStorage to keep them from getting exploited. Someone told me a tip that exploiters cannot exploit an item that is in ServerStorage.
So i placed it there.
Great, in that case, here’s the updated tutorial that allows the player to shuffle weapons
NOTE: The weapons here will be stored in ReplicatedStorage, since Local Scripts cannot acess ServerStorage, don’t worry though, exploiters cannot exploit items here either
Step 1 - Create a Folder in StarterPlayerScripts named “WeaponShuffling”, and insert a LocalScript inside it
It should look like this:
Step 2 - Inside ServerScriptService, create a Script called “EquipWeapons”
It should look like this:
Step 3 - Inside ReplicatedStorage, create a Folder called “Weapons”, and insert all the weapons inside it, and then a RemoteEvent named “EquipWeaponEvent” (NOTE: The RemoteEvent is NOT inside of the Weapons folder)
It should look like this:
Now let’s get into scripting! Open the LocalScript you’ve created earlier and write this:
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
local Weapons = {} -- Creates a table that will store all weapons
local CurrentWeaponIndex = 0
for i, Weapon in ReplicatedStorage.Weapons:GetChildren() do if Weapon:IsA("Tool") then table.insert(Weapons, Weapon) end end -- Checks if all weapons are tools, and inserts them into the table
local CurrentWeapon = Weapons[1].Name
local function EquipWeapon(Name)
ReplicatedStorage.EquipWeaponEvent:FireServer(Name) -- Fires the Remote Event with the weapon name
end
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input, GPE) -- An input has been triggered
if (not GPE) and Input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then -- If input is the key Q
CurrentWeaponIndex += 1 -- Adds one to the current index
if Weapons[CurrentWeaponIndex] == nil or CurrentWeaponIndex > #Weapons then CurrentWeaponIndex = 1 end -- Checks if either the weapon doesn't exist or the table has ran out of weapons, and if so sets the index to 1
CurrentWeapon = Weapons[CurrentWeaponIndex].Name -- Updates the current weapon
EquipWeapon(CurrentWeapon) -- Fires the EquipWeapon function
end
end)
Now for the final script, open the “EquipWeapons” script in ServerScriptService, and write this:
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RemoteEvent = ReplicatedStorage.EquipWeaponEvent
RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, Name) -- Remote event has been fired
if Player.Character then -- Checks if player's character has loaded
local Weapon = ReplicatedStorage.Weapons:FindFirstChild(Name):Clone() -- Clones the weapon from ReplicatedStorage
for i, Tool in pairs(Player.Character:GetChildren()) do if Tool:IsA("Tool") then Tool.Parent = Player.Backpack wait() Tool:Destroy() end end -- Checks if the player has any tools, and destroys them
for i, Tool in pairs(Player.Backpack:GetChildren()) do if Tool:IsA("Tool") then Tool:Destroy() end end -- Same thing from above but with player's backpack
Weapon.Parent = Player.Character -- Equips the weapon tool
end
end)
Hope I helped! If you have any concerns, fell free to ask me, good luck!
Do you have a function to equip weapons?
For example, a ModuleScript?
Nevermind, I came back in normal. Using a Viewmodel is hard.
Can you add some Equip Animations to it?
Sure! Do you have any animations yet?
Nope, Im bad at animating. But i guess i could let me friend do it. But he’s offline tho
That’s okay, take your time!
Warn me whenever you’re ready so I can post the updated code.
