"Handle is not a valid member of tool" - Error????

Asked by

5 years ago

I have two weapons I've made & scripted using the same fashion for both. One works completely fine (M1911) & the other (Ak-47) doesn't work at all. Now I know its because of this one error that keeps popping up, "Handle is not a valid member of tool"? I have a handle inside of my tool exactly like my M1911 which works just fine. Now note my Ak did work at one point before I tried adding sound effects for, equip, reload, magazine in, & empty clip effects. Also note that I added the same effects with different audio for the M1911. The script below is my main code and mind you im getting an error for the handle under my variables where I define handle.

Maybe you are refrencing your tool wrong? Check if the tool is actually script.Parent.Parent royaltoe 5144 — 5y

Sure where should I send the links too GoodkidMad 14 — 5y

& No thats the first thing I checked. Trust me for me to be asking on here i've gone through the complete checklist of what could have been wrong. GoodkidMad 14 — 5y

Try using WaitForChild() or like referencing the thing handle from script.Parent.Parent.Handle itself maybe? Not the best coder here btw. RebornedInFire 35 — 5y
