Update: Turns out I had to make the main script a local script :/
I made a basic weapon and it works in Play Solo, but when I publish the game, it doesn't work.
The weapon has 2 scripts, the main one is a non-local script in the handle.
local Debounce = true function onEquip(Mouse) local Character = script.Parent.Parent.Parent local Torso = Character.Torso Mouse.Icon = "rbxasset://textures\\GunCursor.png" function onClick(Mouse) if Torso then if Debounce then Debounce = false Mouse.Icon = "rbxasset://textures\\GunWaitCursor.png" local Location = Mouse.Hit script.Parent.Fire:Play() x = Instance.new("Part") y = Instance.new("BodyForce") z = script.Parent.Parent.BulletScript:Clone() x.FormFactor = 3 x.Size = Vector3.new(0.2, 0.2, 1.6) x.Name = "Laser" x.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red") x.CFrame = CFrame.new(script.Parent.Position + (script.Parent.CFrame.lookVector * 3),(Mouse.UnitRay.Direction * 1000)) x.Velocity = x.CFrame.lookVector * 200 z.Parent = x z.Disabled = false y.force = Vector3.new(0, 12.5, 0) y.Parent = x x.Parent = Workspace wait(1) Debounce = true Mouse.Icon = "rbxasset://textures\\GunCursor.png" end end end Mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()onClick(Mouse)end) end script.Parent.Parent.Equipped:connect(onEquip)
The other one which is located directly in the tool is also non-local, and is responsible for doing damage.
local x = script.Parent function onTouch(part) local Character = part.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") if Character then Character:TakeDamage(25) x:Destroy() else x:Destroy() end end x.Touched:connect(onTouch)
Sorry if there is an obvious mistake, I am just starting out.
Scripts load at different times when you run them locally vs on the server. In Play Solo, all scripts run locally (because there is no server), so certain things (like PlayerAdded, for example) fire at different times.
adding a short wait to the beginning of the script usually makes these problems go away.
