I’m working on a dual-wielding NPC and the tool in the left hand does not activate or deactivate when I call Tool:Activate or Tool:Deactivate on it. It works fine for the right hand tool though, but not the left. I made sure the left hand weld is correct.
The tool does show correctly on the NPC, so I know it’s correct. Here’s the NPC script:
local bossModel = script.Parent
local bossHuman = bossModel:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
local bossRoot = bossModel:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local toolLeft = bossModel:FindFirstChild("WristGauntlet")
local handLeft = bossModel:FindFirstChild("LeftHand")
local toolRight = bossModel:FindFirstChild("WristBlades")
local handRight = bossModel:FindFirstChild("RightHand")
for _, item in pairs(script.Parent.RightHand:GetChildren()) do
if item.ClassName == "Weld" then
if item.Part0 == toolLeft.Handle or
item.Part1 == toolLeft.Handle then
-- Move the weld
item.Part0 = handLeft
item.Part1 = toolLeft.Handle
item.Name = "LeftGrip"
item.Parent = handLeft
end
end
end
task.wait(1)
local diedConnect = bossHuman.Died:Connect(function()
print("Left Tool")
toolLeft:Activate()
end)
Here’s the tool script. It’s the same for both left/right.
local toolInstance = script.Parent
toolInstance.Activated:Connect(function()
print(toolInstance.Name, "Activated")
end)
toolInstance.Deactivated:Connect(function()
print(toolInstance.Name, "Deactivated")
end)
toolInstance.Equipped:Connect(function()
print(toolInstance.Name, "Equipped")
end)
toolInstance.Unequipped:Connect(function()
print(toolInstance.Name, "Unequipped")
end)
The printouts happen for the right tool, but not the left. I have even tried manually typing the activate command on the server’s command line and I’m getting the same result. It works (prints) on the right weapon, but not the left. It’s also interesting to note that when the NPC spawns, the equipped message shows up for the right weapon, but not the left.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work?
