"attempt to index local 'mouse' (a nil value)"?

Hi. A local script inside a tool fires a RemoteEvent also placed inside the tool when activated with the arguments of:

`1`	`firere:FireServer(mouse, hum, handle, damage, flyoffvals)`

The script that runs when RemoteEvent is fired looks like this:

01local firere = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Fire")
02 
03firere.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player, mouse, hum, handle, damage, flyoffvals)
04 
05    local fb = handle:Clone()
06    fb.Parent = game.Workspace
07    fb.Name = "Fireball"
08    fb.CFrame = handle.CFrame
09 
10    print(player.Name .. "'s fireball was launched!")
11 
12    local particle = fb:WaitForChild("ParticleEmitter")
13 
14    particle.LockedToPart = false
15    particle.Rate = 300
16 
17    local bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", fb)
18    bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
19    bv.Velocity = mouse.Hit.lookVector * 350
20 
21    print(player.Name .. "'s fireball BodyVelocity was created!")
22 
23    game.Debris:AddItem(fb, 1.5)
24 
25    fb.Touched:connect(function(part)
26        local vhum = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
27        if vhum and vhum.Health > 0 and vhum ~= hum then
28            vhum:TakeDamage(damage)
29 
30            for x = 1,10 do
31                local cfb = fb:Clone()
32                cfb.Parent = game.Workspace
33                cfb.Position = fb.Position
34                cfb.BodyVelocity.Velocity = Vector3.new(flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)], flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)], flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)])
35                game.Debris:AddItem(cfb, 1.5)
36            end
37 
38            fb:Destroy()
39 
40        elseif part.Anchored == true and part.CanCollide == true then
41            for x = 1,10 do
42                local cfb = fb:Clone()
43                cfb.CFrame = fb.CFrame
44                cfb.BodyVelocity.Velocity = Vector3.new(flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)], flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)], flyoffvals[math.random(1, #flyoffvals)])
45                game.Debris:AddItem(cfb, 1.5)
46            end
47 
48            fb:Destroy()
49        end
50    end)

I'm getting the error at line 19. I'm getting the player's mouse using "player:GetMouse()" inside the local script. All help is appreciated very, very much. Thanks :} ~Loughdough

I don't see local mouse=game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() at the top of this script DanzLua 2879 — 7y

@DanzLua I said it was in the local script...? Loughdough 291 — 7y

@LoughDough its not in a localscript? DanzLua 2879 — 7y

That isn't the local script. Actually READ what I said. Someone already answered the question anyways so it doesn't matter. Loughdough 291 — 7y

@LoughDough don't be rude to someone who's trying to help you Sadwowow21 57 — 4y
