How do you make a local mouse hover filter?
Example:
There are 100 parts named "SelectionBox" in the workspace. There's a LocalScript inside the player when ever the player's mouse hovers on the part named "SelectionBox" it will destroy it!
|FAILED STRATEGY 1|
How: - Create a ClickDetector inside each Box - Connect into single one of it (1. Waste of time) - Add this script:
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseHoverEnter:connect(function()
script.Parent:Destroy()
end)
(2. Creates a lag a.k.a low response to the whole server)
|FAILED STRATEGY 2| <- Changing the box properties instead of destroying it
How: - Add this in the LocalScript:
--Get Mouse
mouse.Moved:connect(function()
if mouse.Target ~= nil then
if mouse.Target.Name == "SelectionBox" then
box = mouse.Target --Save the box in-case the mouse unhovers it
box.Transparency = 0.5
else
box.Transparency = 0
end
end
end)
(But what if you hover on another part instead of the SelectionBox? Well the script will also cause an error.) (But what if the SelectionBox you just hover get destroyed? Well the script will also cause an error.)

If you wanted to make the boxes half transparent while you are hovering over them you can do this:
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local box
mouse.Move:Connect(function()
local targ = mouse.Target
if targ and targ.Name == "SelectionBox" and targ:IsA("BasePart") then
if box and targ ~= box then
box.Transparency = 0
end
targ.Transparency = 0.5
box = targ
end
end)
Keep in mind if you are using FilteringEnabled and you want all players to see the boxes go transparent, you need to use Remote Events.
