Asked by

when I click the baseplate, it just prints the name of the brick but won't print "ITS BASE" but when I click a non object(nil) it prints "LOL NAAA"..

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()

mouse.Button1Down:connect(function(click)
    print(mouse.Target)

    if mouse.Target == "BasePlate" then
        print("ITS BASE!")
    elseif mouse.Target == nil then
        print("LOL NAAA")
    end
end)

    if mouse.Target and mouse.Target.Name == "BasePlate" then --Check if the name of the target is BasePlate
        print("ITS BASE!")
    elseif mouse.Target == nil then
        print("LOL NAAA")
    end

Because if Mouse.Target is nil it would error. Articulating 1335 — 10y

You forgot to check its name You were just checking if the object was a BasePlate.

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()
mouse.Button1Down:connect(function(click)
    if mouse.Target~=nil then --Check to make sure it wont break
        if mouse.Target.Name == "BasePlate" then --Needs to check its name
            print("ITS BASE!")
        elseif mouse.Target == nil then
            print("LOL NAAA")
        end
    end 
end)
