How do you access the player's mouse using this script?
local function playeradded(player) local click = player:GetMouse() if click.Button1Down() and script.Parent.Enabled then script.Parent.Handle.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Black") wait(1) script.Parent.Handle.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Fossil") end end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(playeradded)
I am trying to find a way to access the mouse, but I have no idea how. I can't find out how on the wiki because this is what I ended up making from the wiki's information.

GetMouse() can only be accessed with a local script. And you would not use a PlayerAdded event. See if you can study this example:
(This is in a local script)
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer -- "LocalPlayer" is the client the local script is inside of local Mouse = Player:GetMouse() -- Returns the player's mouse.
Let me know if you have any questions
A PlayerMouse can only be accessed by a LocalScript. The following is a LocalScript:
local plr = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer -- LocalPlayer is the player, in this case the client, using the LocalScript.
local mouse = plr:GetMouse() -- Gets the player's Mouse object and returns it.
mouse.Button1Down:connect(btn1down) -- You can connect a Button1Down event to the mouse.
mouse.Icon = 'http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=1337' -- Dunno.
As you can see, you can retrieve the mouse using a LocalScript and it behaves exactly like a tool mouse. Changing the Icon and connecting functions to the Button1Down, Button2Down, etc. are the same as in tools. But you MUST use a LocalScript.
