I try using this:
local p = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent.Parent)
local m = p:GetMouse()
COMMUNITY QUESTION
What's a surefire way to get the mouse, when using a regular script in a tool?
1 answer
The best way to do that is to use a local script.
Have a local script in starter pack or starter Gui with the following code:
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
You can then use Mouse to get properties like Hit.
There are other ways to do this but this is one of the simpler ways.

I see. In the past, I've been able to actually use a localscript, then have it set an ObjectValue's value to the player's Mouse. For some reason, this no longer works.

You can't GetMouse can ONLY be used in a local script.
