How would I put a model into the character when they equip the tool?
So, I have a script in a tool that basically fires when the tool is equipped. That part works. Then its meant to clone a model and put it into the character. This worked up until a while ago (maybe there was an update to FE?).
local tool = script.Parent
print('equipped')
tool.Equipped:connect(function()
local player = tool.Parent.Parent
local motor = script.SniperHandle:Clone()
local model = game.ServerStorage.tool:Clone() --doesn't work? how do I get this tool?
local c = script.Parent.Parent
print('model',c)
--Welding script here (works)
I've tried cloning it from Workspace and from a folder in the character, but nothing seems to be working. I'm starting to wonder whether clone() still works.
How would I get to the model? (This script is in a tool)

Hey! I'm BlackOrange and I will be helping you.
The problems seems like the Script is a LocalScript. One thing you have to know is that the Client AKA the LocalScript can NOT access the ServerStorage. What I do suggest you do is place the tool inside the ReplicatedStorage.
Here:
local tool = script.Parent
print('equipped')
tool.Equipped:Connect(function() -- use Connect over connect
local player = tool.Parent.Parent
local motor = script.SniperHandle:Clone()
local model = game.ReplicatedStorage.tool:Clone() --Place tool in ReplicatedStorage
local c = script.Parent.Parent
print('model',c)
--Welding script here (works)
and if like you said everything works then it should work.
Best of luck developer!
Hoped this helped.
