Whenever I click mouse anywhere on sky this comes up: attempt to index field 'Target' (a nil value)?
local Tool = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local ToolEnabled = true
Tool.Activated:connect( function()
if not ToolEnabled then
return
end
ToolEnabled = false
if mouse.Target.Position.magnitude == _G.ve1.magnitude and _G.humanoid1.Health < 101 then
_G.humanoid1.Health = _G.humanoid1.Health + 6
end
ve1 is a vector3
This is not the full script but the error is in the "if statement"

The reason this errors is because mouse.Target is specifically meant for targeting parts. The skybox isn't a part, and because of that, it has no position or magnitude, which causes an error. There is no target, so it is a nil value. Try adding a conditional that checks for if there's a target in the first place, and that might fix your issue.
Hope this helped.

Yup. Although, the mouse can target things other than parts, such as terrain. OldPalHappy 1477 — 8y

You need to check whether your target exists!
if mouse.Target ~= nil then
if mouse.Target.Position.magnitude == _G.ve1.magnitude and _G.humanoid1.Health < 101 then
_G.humanoid1.Health = _G.humanoid1.Health + 6
end
end
The following statement checks whether the mouse's target is an object. To avoid errors simply put your code in-between the statement below.
if mouse.Target ~= nil then end
Example:
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = plr:GetMouse()
mouse.Move:connect(function()
if mouse.Target ~= nil then
print(mouse.Target.Name)
end
end)
