No, you do not need to use ClickDetectors. You can use things such as mouse.Hit, mouse.Target, etc. Thetacah 712 — 8y

Yes, you need a ClickDetector to make a click work on a brick.
Heres an example that you would include inside a script located under the brick.
1 | script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(playerWhoClicked) |
2 | print("Part was clicked by: " .. playerWhoClicked.Name) --Finds out who clicked it and prints it. |
3 | end) |

Yes. Here's an example:
1 | button = script.Parent |
2 | function ghost() |
3 | button.Transparency = 0.5 |
4 | end |
5 | button.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(ghost) |

Not necessarily, you can do
1 | local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | local Mouse = Player:GetMouse() |
3 | local Button = script.Parent |
4 |
5 | Mouse.Button1Down:connect(function() |
6 | if Mouse.Target == Button then |
7 | print("I was clicked") |
8 | end) |
It does have its disadvantages though
