Hello! I made small script which giving tool to the player when he just clicks TextButton but it's not working, how can I fix this?
this is this script
local Tool = game:GetService("ServerStorage").RPK
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Backpack = Player:FindFirstChild("Backpack")
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
Tool:Clone().Parent = Backpack
end)
You must use a RemoteEvent as the client (LocalScript(s)) cannot access ServerStorage and the client cannot just give itself tools. To fix this, insert a RemoteEvent into ReplicatedStorage and name it "GiveTool". Now change the LocalScript's code to this
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
ReplicatedStorage.GiveTool:FireServer()
end)
This will fire the RemoteEvent when you click the button.
Now insert a ServerScript (aka. Normal Script) into ServerScriptService
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Tool = game:GetService("ServerStorage").RPK
ReplicatedStorage.GiveTool.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
Tool:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end)
Now the OnServerEvent RBXScriptSignal will fire when the RemoteEvent is fired, in this case, when the button is clicked. Then the script will clone the tool and place it in the player's backpack. Hopefully, this helped you! For more information on RemoteEvents and RemoteFunctions, go here.
Wow, thank you so much for your help.
No problem.
local Tool = game:GetService("ServerStorage").RPK
local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
-- local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent
--only do that if in another thing
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
Tool:Clone().Parent = player:WaitForChild("Backpack")
end)
Not working

LocalPlayer is nil if its in a regular script and ServerStorage's children isnt visible in the regular script
