Tools Falling Issue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Greetings

This probably has a very easy fix that I’m not seeing, but whenever I equip a tool in my game, the tool just falls and when I equip it, it spawns where the handle was before I put it in ReplicatedStorage and then it falls.

The Script:

function hi(x)

local y = x.Backpack

local z = game.ReplicatedStorage[“Burger Buns”]

z:Clone().Parent = y

end

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(hi)

Thanks.

Roblox has an easy to use function for equipping a tool using the Humanoid named EquipTool

An example of this implementation would be as follows:

local tool = toolPrefab:Clone()
tool.Parent = plr.Backpack

hum:EquipTool(tool)

Does this solve my tool falling issue?

#4

EquipTool properly handles the parenting and welding of the tool to the right hand or arm, so yes it should

#5

Okay! I will try this out now, I’ll see if it works.

#6

Can you explain the tool model or provide an image.I’m speculating you have multiple parts that aren’t welded together

#7

Also, the script is

  1. local Players = game:GetService(“Players”)
  • local player = Players:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Player”)
  1. if player and player.Character then
  2. local humanoid = player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass(“Humanoid”)
  3. if humanoid then
  4. local tool = workspace:FindFirstChild(“Tool”)
  5. if tool then
  6. humanoid:EquipTool(tool)
  7. end
  8. end
  9. end

Would anything break if I changed the ‘local tool = workspace’ to ReplicatedStorage?

#8

Will do that now, one second. Just need to try this script someone suggested,

#9

Does the tool have a handle? Because tools need handles.

And another thing, where would the script go?

#11

Yep, it has a handle, I tried it with and without a weld, didn’t work.

#12

What is in the tool? I haven’t been able to confirm my speculations about there being multiple parts besides the handle of tool.

#13

Do you have a part called handle? If so then try setting the tool’s parent to the character of the player. Not sure if that’ll make a difference but that does work for me.

#14

Two unions, which is the actual tool, and one handle with nothing inside.

#15

Are they’re any welded together for them to be able to stay together

#17

Make sure the Tool has a Part named “Handle” (case sensitive)

#18

I see nothing keeping em together u can just weld it urself with weldconstraints or get a plugin

#19

I have added welds they don’t do anything, I also try changing the weld Part0 and Part1 properties and it doesn’t work.

#20

Should I add a weldcontraint to them all?
