How to make a part only print through a remote event when clicked?
I am trying to make a sword and am trying to make it detect when ever it touches a part. It works but I am trying to make it only happen when I click and so far, after I click it once, it will always print. Here is local script for the tool.
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local db = true
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
if db == true then
script.Parent.sword_event:FireServer()
db = false
wait(0.1)
db = true
end
end)
end)
I don't think there is any problems with it and I think my server script is causing all the problems
local event = script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
local tool = game.Workspace[player.Name].Tool
tool.Handle.Touched:Connect(function(part)
if part.Parent == game.Workspace[player.Name] then
print("e")
else
print("r")
end
end)
end)
Please help me!

Since you're using a tool, you don't need a LocalScript for touched events. Tools work with both Scripts and LocalScripts.
ServerScript inside Tool:
local Tool = script.Parent
local Handle = Tool:WaitForChild('Handle')
local char,plr
Tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
if not char or not plr then
char = Tool.Parent
plr = game:GetService('Players'):GetPlayerFromCharacter(char)
end
end)
local db = false
Handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
if hit and hit.Parent:IsA('Model') and hit.Parent ~= char and hit.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') and not db then
db = true
print('This is another player')
wait(.1)
db = false
end
end)
Also, Tools already have an event for checking when the mouse button was pressed. An example of that would be:
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
print('mouse button 1 was pressed!')
end)
