Trail Gamepass, Gamepass not recognizing

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

Hey,

I am trying to make a trail gamepass but it doesn’t seem to recognize my gamepass. This is my Trail gamepass script where it checks for the gamepass.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
	wait(2)
	local trail = char.Head.Trail
	local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
	local UserId = player.UserId
	local PlayerBoughtThisGamepass = MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354) -- Change to gamepassid
	
	if PlayerBoughtThisGamepass then
		trail.Enabled = true
		trail.Lifetime = 5
	else
		trail.Enabled = false
	end
end)

I hope someone can help me, already thanks!

Have you got any errors in the output or in the console?

#4

Maybe the trail isn’t on the head yet.

#5

Nope, no errors.

Boring extra text for requirements

#6

You’re using 2 Events, and 1 if statement to check but all I see from the closing lines are these:

Could you try adding another end) after the first one?

#7 
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
	wait(2)
    local trail1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.Trail -- or replace with the path to the trail
	local trail = char.Head.Trail
	local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
	local UserId = player.UserId
	local PlayerBoughtThisGamepass = MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354) -- Change to gamepassid
	
	if PlayerBoughtThisGamepass then
		trail.Enabled = true
		trail.Lifetime = 5
	else
		trail.Enabled = false
	end
end)
end)

Try this:

if (MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354)) then
    --The rest of the script here
end
#9

I forgot to add on to the script. But the trail wouldnt automatically be a thing on the head, you have to clone it first.

#10 
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		wait(2)
		local trail = char.Head.Trail
		local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
		local UserId = player.UserId
		local PlayerBoughtThisGamepass = MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354) -- Change to gamepassid

		if PlayerBoughtThisGamepass then
			trail.Enabled = true
			trail.Lifetime = 5
		else
			trail.Enabled = false
		end
	end)
end)

Did that, doesnt make any difference.

#11

It does make a difference, you didn’t end the first function.

#12

Are you getting any errors firstly?

Oops, didn’t see that you already checked and no errors, maybe try printing the contents of the PlayerBoughtThisGamePass variable? @Coolebooster

#13

I mean I tried it but it didnt change anything

#14

@Coolebooster try to put the trail in the RepicatedStorage and then write this in the script:

local trail = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Trail") --Change trail with the name of your trail

if PlayerBoughtThisGamepass then
	local clonedTrail = trail:Clone()
    clonedTrail.Parent = char.Head
end
#15

At least the code looks better now

Try this, and check your Output to see what gets printed?

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    print("Player Added")
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
         print("Character Added")
		wait(2)
		local trail = char.Head.Trail
		local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
		local UserId = player.UserId
		local PlayerBoughtThisGamepass = MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354) -- Change to gamepassid
         print(PlayerBoughtThisGamepass)
		if PlayerBoughtThisGamepass then
             print("Yes!")
			trail.Enabled = true
			trail.Lifetime = 5
		else
             print("No! >:(")
			trail.Enabled = false
		end
	end)
end)
#16

@Coolebooster this should work

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	local char = player.Character
	
	local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
	local trail = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("Trail") --Change trail with the name of your trail
	
	if (MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, 16160354)) then --Change the GamePassId with your GamePassid
		local clonedTrail = trail:Clone()
		clonedTrail.Parent = char:WaitForChild("Head")
		clonedTrail.Enabled = true
		clonedTrail.Lifetime = 5
	end
	
end)

Oml, I am soo dumb. I didnt own the gamepass :man_facepalming:
My bad, thanks for helping anyways.

#18

This is a huge bruh momentum Ah you’re fine, at least you got it fixed though that’s the important part! Also do make sure to mark your post as a solution so it’s confirmed

#19

Won’t run if because it’s going too fast, so character will be nil.
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

#20

My little contribution: use pcall() as this function can crash sometimes.

local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
	    wait(2)
	    local trail = char.Head.Trail
	    local UserId = player.UserId
	
		local Success,Has = pcall(function()
    		return MarketPlaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(UserId, 16160354)
	    end)
	    if Success and Has then
		    trail.Enabled = true
		    trail.Lifetime = 5
	    else
		    trail.Enabled = false
	    end
    end)
end)
