Asked 217 views1 answers

Hello. You guys, i need help with something.. i am trying to get Mouse.Target With RemoteEvent. The thing is that i am not good at RemoteEvents And I dont know how To Send them to serverscripts. This is a example i did:

LocalScript:

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local RemoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent

RemoteEvent:FireServer(mouse.Target)

Server:

local Event = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent

Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,mouse)
  mouse.Target.Parent.Character.Humanoid:TakeDamage(40)
end)

Now The error says "Target is not a vaild member of Part". Help

You should use raycasting. It usually solves problems like yours.

In your server script, you are already reciving the mouse target, also mouseTarget.Parent is already the character.

Btw, this script will error if you click on something that don't have a humanoid, you should add checks for that

--Server
local Event = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent

Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,mouse) -- in this case, mouse is already the target
  mouse.Parent.Humanoid:TakeDamage(40) -- mouse.Parent is already the character
end)

If this answers your question, please mark this answer as accepted :)
