ClickDetector Part Not Functioning After First Use?

Asked by 3 years ago

I'll make this short. I have a puzzle area where you click on the part (what I'm talking about), it moves to Lighting, Changes the CameraSubject from a localscript cloning, and clones a keypress script into PlayerGui. CODE:


script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseHoverEnter:Connect(function(Clicker) if script.Parent:FindFirstChild("SelectionBox") then print("googoo") else local selection = Instance.new("SelectionBox") selection.Color3 = Color3.new(153, 153, 153) selection.LineThickness = 0.03 selection.Parent = Clicker.PlayerGui selection.Adornee = script.Parent end end) script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseHoverLeave:Connect(function(Clicker) if Clicker.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("SelectionBox") then Clicker.PlayerGui.SelectionBox:Destroy() end end) --SelectionBox Code Above (might be irrelevant) local Ready = true script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr) if Ready == true then Ready = false local keypress = script.Parent.KeyPressing:Clone() keypress.Parent = plr.PlayerGui keypress.Disabled = false local cloneme = script.Parent.LocalScript:Clone() cloneme.Parent = plr.PlayerGui cloneme.Disabled = false local pieces = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").PuzzleKitchenStuff:Clone() pieces.Parent = game.Workspace pieces.Script.Disabled = false if plr.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("SelectionBox") then plr.PlayerGui.SelectionBox:Destroy() end script.Parent.Parent = game.Lighting Ready = true end end)

So everything works fine until I press the key. Everything within the key functions as told, but the part just doesn't work when it goes back into Workspace..

CODE FOR KEYPRESS:


local camera = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer local mouse = player:GetMouse() game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject,gameProcessedEvent) if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then camera.CameraSubject = player.Character.Humanoid game.Lighting.KitchenPuzzleBruh.Parent = game.Workspace if player.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("SelectionBox") then player.PlayerGui.SelectionBox:Destroy() end script:Destroy() end end)

If I remember correctly, `MouseClick` should be run on the server. I think it actually does work on the client, but it has some side-effect (maybe similar to running `PlayerAdded` on the client). It might not be your problem, but something to think about Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 3y

And that would apply to all `ClickDetector` events, too Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 3y

I'd also like to point out that `script.Parent.Parent` is extremely confusing, if you're actually trying to set the parent of the parent. Do you know that it's doing what you want it to? Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 3y

It works once, meaning the function itself works. All i'm doing is trying to do it again but it isn't working SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y

Yes it functions correctly, it goes to lighting and back into workspace SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y

Something to mention as well, the local script in PlayerGui is suppose to destroy itself but never does. OUTPUT CODE: Something unexpectedly tried to set the parent of LocalScript to NULL while trying to set the parent of LocalScript. Current parent is PlayerGui. SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y

Line 9 of your second script. Shouldn't that object be cloned into workspace? Gey4Jesus69 2705 — 3y

No, because I'm not trying to clone it, rather just trying to put it back into workspace (I've tried cloning, disabling and re-enabling the script, nothing works) SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y

That got rid of the error, and the script but didn't fix the problem SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y

So I figured out why it isn't working. Basically for whatever reason the localscript is executing its correct function. Whatever script in workspace that is called by this localscript, does not work.

For example, the localscript that enables a script in workspace to print "sup", it says the script is enabled but does not function SooGloezNoob 45 — 3y
