"maximum event re-entrancy depth exceeded" Error, anyone know how to fix? [UPDATE]
(Scroll down for old code)
Oh, by the way, the error occurs when I equip the tool
Just edited it a bit, still says the same thing, but here's the code again. (Layout)
01 | local tool = script.Parent |
02 | local handle = tool.Handle |
03 | local light = handle.PointLight |
04 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
05 | local Enabled = true |
06 |
07 | function activated() |
08 | if Enabled == true then |
09 | Enabled = false |
10 | wait() |
11 | local col = script.collide:Clone() |
12 | col.Parent = tool |
13 | col.Position = handle.Position |
14 | col.Anchored = false |
15 | wait() |

Here is the code, but before you look at it, look at this.
01 | local tool = script.Parent |
02 | local handle = tool.Handle |
03 | local light = handle.PointLight |
04 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
05 |
06 | function activated() |
07 | if script.Enabled == true then |
08 | script.Enabled = false |
09 | local col = script.collide:Clone() |
10 | col.Parent = tool |
11 | col.Position = handle.Position |
12 | col.Anchored = false |
13 | light.Brightness = 100 |
14 | light.Range = 48 |
15 | col.Touched:connect(function(hit) |

Oh, and here's the code for the script I made to attempt to fix it. (The "Script" inside the Light Orb)
1 | while true do --Fix |
2 | wait(1) |
3 | if not script.Parent.LocalScript.collide then |
4 | local c = game.Lighting.Storage.collide:Clone() |
5 | c.Parent = script |
6 | end |
7 | end |

Why is "Enabled" a BoolValue instead of just a variable, is it used in another one of the scripts?\ duckwit 1404 — 11y

Just to check (I haven't looked incredible,y pensively at your script) is this the script that has the re-entrancy error? duckwit 1404 — 11y

Maximum retry depth error usually comes from recursing the same function over and over.
I'll tell you where this infinite loop is.
EDIT:
Worth a shot but
@ line 16, use if hit.Parent:FindFirstachild'Humanoid'
And also try adding debounce to that event.

Definitely need to add the FindFirstChild - but doesn't he already have debounce in there? The variable he uses is called Enabled. duckwit 1404 — 11y
