How do i force Unequip a tool?
I am working on a FPS game and i am trying to make it so that the current tool gtets unequipped when someone changes their gun.
This is what i have so far:
01 | wait(1) |
02 | local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
03 | local c = p.Character |
04 | local m = p:GetMouse() |
05 |
06 | local startergui = game:GetService('StarterGui') |
07 | startergui:SetCoreGuiEnabled(Enum.CoreGuiType.All, false) |
08 | p.CameraMode = Enum.CameraMode.LockFirstPerson |
09 |
10 | local gun = game.ServerStorage.Pistol:Clone() |
11 | gun.Parent = p.Backpack |
12 | c.Humanoid:EquipTool(gun) |
13 |
14 | m.KeyDown:Connect(function(key) |
15 | if key == "1" and p.Data.Current.Value ~= "Primary" then |
View all 33 lines...
This works and all, but i would prefer a way to forcefully unequip a tool instead of removing the tool itself.
Thanks!

You have use EquipTool and there is the reverse operation http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/Humanoid/UnequipTools User#5423 17 — 7y

its possible, just move the tool to the player's "Backpack"
when equipped:
tool appears in the players model (game.Workspace.PLAYERNAME)
when NOT equipped:
the tool is stored in a folder located in the player's "Player" instance called "Backpack" (game.Players.PLAYERNAME.Backpack)
by the way, its a good habit to indent your code

Yea, i understood the part where the tool goes into the character, but i didnt think about just moving it back to backpack. Also, i honestly dislike indenting. Nikkulaos 229 — 7y

You can't, when trying to change the parent of the tool this happens: " Something unexpectedly tried to set the parent of Tool to Backpack while trying to set the parent of Tool. Current parent is ____" FadedDragoner 15 — 4y

sorry for taking 4 months to respond, but the reason it gives you such an error, is because 2 scripts tried to set the parent at the exact same time, which makes absolutely no sense, try adding a wait() fanofpixels 718 — 4y
