I am making an RPG. I have scripted a working magic system and it works very well on PC. I wanted to add mobile support, which would fire this script when the button is pressed. However, I get the error in the title. Please help.

01--// Services \\--
02local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
03local Debris = game:GetService('Debris')
04 
05--// Variables \\--
06local Remote = ReplicatedStorage.FireBallEvent
07local FireBall = ReplicatedStorage.FireBall
08local player = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(game.Workspace.PlayerName.Value)
09 
10--// Settings \\--
11local Damage = 20
12 
13local ServerDebounces = {}
14 
15Remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, Mouse)
16 if not ServerDebounces[plr] then
17  ServerDebounces[plr] = true
18 
19  local Char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
20 
21  local FireBallClone = FireBall:Clone()
22  FireBallClone.CFrame = Char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-3)
23  FireBallClone.Parent = workspace
24 
25  local BodyVelocity = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
26  BodyVelocity.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
27  BodyVelocity.Velocity = Mouse.lookVector ----- This is the problem line
28  BodyVelocity.Parent = FireBallClone

30  spawn(function()
31   for i = 0, 1000 do
32    wait()
33    FireBallClone.Size = FireBallClone.Size + Vector3.new(0.07,0.07,0.07)
34    BodyVelocity.Velocity = Mouse.lookVector*i
35   end
36  end)
37  ServerDebounces[plr] = false
38  Debris:AddItem(FireBallClone, 10)

40  local Debounce = true
41  FireBallClone.Touched:Connect(function(h)
42   if h.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') and h.Parent.Name ~= plr.Name and Debounce then

44    local Enemy = h.Parent.Humanoid

The local script in StarterGui will fire the event when the button is pressed:

01local contextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
02local Mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
03 
04function onButtonPress()
05game.ReplicatedStorage.FireBallEvent:FireServer(Mouse)
06end
07 
08local mobilebutton = contextActionService:BindAction("ActivateSpellButton", onButtonPress, true, "Q")
09contextActionService:SetPosition("ActivateSpellButton", UDim2.new(0.72,-25,0.20,-25))
10contextActionService:SetImage("ActivateSpellButton", "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=247421777")

Could you send the client script so I can see what Mouse is orcazate 170 — 4y
