I'm trying to make it so while the mouse is down my ability starts charging and then when released will activate, my problem is how would I execute this with FilteringEnabled? I've been able to do it without but how would I pass through the charging value to expand the size of a part gradually as the mouse is held?

When you click MouseButton1, fire a Remote Event/Function. You could either pass it with an argument to see if they are holding down or let go (true or false). On InputEnded, fire either the same Remote (with false or whatever you set as parameter) or a different one. Then you can use a NumberValue as an iterator for growing it, then handle it on the server.

Also, please provide some code or proof that you tried next time.
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()StartCharging:FireServer()end)
Tool.Deactivated:Connect(function()DoAbility:FireServer()end)
So far I've got this
LocalScript
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Held = false
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(inputObject)
if inputObject.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
Held = true
game.ReplicatedStorage["Magic"]["Charging"]:FireServer(true)
end
end)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(inputObject)
if inputObject.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
Held = false
game.ReplicatedStorage["Magic"]["Charging"]:FireServer(false)
end
end)
ServerScript
game.ReplicatedStorage["Magic"]["Charging"].OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, Held)
while wait(.1) do
if Held == true then
print("held")
end
end
end)
My only problem is it keeps firing when I release the key, it doesn't seem to be passing through false but I'm not getting any errors.
