How to tell when a player equips a tool from the player GUI?

Asked Dec 17, 2015191 views1 answers

I'm trying to tell when a player equips a tool. This is in the PlayerGui, not the tool... Nothing happens when I try it:

local character = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name)
character.DescendantAdded:connect(function(descendant)
    if descendant.ClassName == "Tool" then
        print("Tool")
    end
end)

You need to put this script in starterplayerscripts, it works when I put it in staterplayerscripts.

Still doens't work for me.. .I have character auto-loads off... Does that have anything to do with it?

I dont know. Try it with character auto-loads.

Although it is a better idea to put it in SPS, it won't do anything but make the loading faster.
