Please make your question title relevant to your question content. It should be a one-sentence summary in question form.

Hello, I have recently had help to extend upon this script, yet it still does not function correctly. By clicking the player should receives a hat from the script, yet the player receives nothing. What may be a possible factor for this reason?


debounce = true

if not script.Parent:findFirstChild("ClickDetector") then
  local cd = Instance.new("ClickDetector")
  cd.Parent = script.Parent
end

    script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
    local character = player.Character
        if (character:findFirstChild("Humanoid") ~= nil and debounce == true) then
            debounce = false
            h = Instance.new("Hat")
            p = Instance.new("Part")
            h.Name = "Hat"  
            p.Parent = h
            p.Position = character:findFirstChild("Head").Position
            p.Name = "Handle"
            p.formFactor = 0
            p.Size = Vector3.new(-0,-0,-1)
            p.BottomSurface = 0
            p.TopSurface = 0
            p.Locked = true
            script.Parent.Mesh:clone().Parent = p
            h.Parent = hit.Parent
            h.AttachmentPos = Vector3.new(0,0.4,-0.025)
            wait(5)     debounce = true

        end

    end)

Since you're using a ClickDetector object, use the .MouseClick event instead.

debounce = true

local ClickDetector = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("ClickDetector")

if not ClickDetector then
    ClickDetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector", script.Parent)
-- I polished the script a little bit. The second argument is where you want to parent the new instance
end

ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(Player)
-- "MouseClick" is a member of ClickDetector objects
-- The player instance is returned when the ClickDetector detects a click from the player
    local Character = Player.Character
    if Character and Character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and debounce and Character:FindFirstChild("Head") then
        debounce = false
        h = Instance.new("Hat", Character)
        p = Instance.new("Part", h)
        h.Name = "Hat"
        p.Position = Character.Head.Position
        p.Name = "Handle"
        p.FormFactor = 0
-- This property is case sensitive!
        p.Size = Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)
        p.BottomSurface = 0
        p.TopSurface = 0
        p.Locked = true
        script.Parent.Mesh:Clone().Parent = p
        -- h.Parent = hit.Parent
-- What is "hit?" I decided to parent "h" to the Character in line 16
        h.AttachmentPos = Vector3.new(0,0.4,-0.025)
        wait(5)
        debounce = true
    end
end)

Thank you for your help, but there is just one problem after that. That part is cloned on your head, could there be a way to wear it? As a normal hat, because it clones on top of your head then falls as you move.
