Hey i made a script to my gun:

-- Algumas variaveis --
    local pistola = script.Parent
    local hole = pistola:WaitForChild("Hole")
    local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

    -- Lista de Valores --
    local ammo = 12
    local maxAmmo = 64
    local damage = 20
    local headshotDamage = 50
    local range = 100
    local coolDown = 0.5

    -- impedir spamming --
    local spam = false

    -- Mudar o rato --
    pistola.Equipped:Connect(function()
        mouse.Icon = "rbxassetid://358948941"
    end)

    pistola.Unequipped:Connect(function()
        mouse.Icon = ""
    end)

    -- Disparo --
    pistola.Activated:Connect(function()
        if spam == false then
             spam = true
            pistola.Handle.Disparo:Play()
           local bullet = Instance.new("Part")
           bullet.Size = Vector3.new(range,0.25,0.25)
           local ray = Ray.new(hole.CFrame.Position, (mouse.Hit.Position - hole.CFrame.Position).Unit*range)
           local hit, position = workspace:FindPartOnRay(ray, game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character)
           local distance = (pistola.Handle.CFrame.p - position).magnitude
           bullet.CFrame = CFrame.new(pistola.Handle.CFrame.p, position) * CFrame.new(0,0, distance/2)
           bullet.Transparency = 0.5
           bullet.CanCollide = false
           bullet.Anchored = true
           bullet.Parent = game.Workspace
           bullet.Orientation = hole.Orientation
           bullet.Position = hole.Position
               game:GetService("Debris"):AddItem(bullet, 0.5)
            spam = false
        end
    end)

But it isn't working. Could you tell me what's wrong with it and how can i fix it?

Also here's a video of what my gun is doing.

Ignore the part of my script where i speak portuguese. (pistola = gun)

try nesting the activated event in the tool Equipped Event...... Talking about this.... dont use the activated event..use the actual mouse.Button1Down Event....You can access the players mouse in a LocaScript by writing... game.Players.LocaPlayer:GetMouse() or by passing a parameter to the Tool equipped Event.... Take a look at the following codes.


local tool = nil --Your tool path goes here 
local handle = tool.Handle -- The handle of your gun

tool.Equipped:connect(function(mouse)

--I defined  a players mouse through equipped event--

mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()


    --- Codes for your gun :D

-- I hope it works for you

end

end)

Your bullet size line is incorrect replace it with this

bullet.Size = Vector3.new(0.25,0.25,distance)

and move it down so that you can use the distance varaible in your size line

Ok il try that out mewant_taco 17 — 5y
