Why is this LocalScript is running for all of the clients in the game?

I'm new to Roblox Lua, but I do have experience in other languages including C, C++, Java, Python. I'm having a problem with this localscript. I want the localscript to work like this: When a player touches this block it changes the camera view to somewhere else. Instead of doing that it changes the camera view for ALL the players in the server. Here is the localscript: (It is in StarterGui)

local cam = workspace.Camera
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local focus = game.Workspace.col1
local tween = game:GetService("TweenService")
local active = false

game.Workspace.Shop.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if not active then
        active = true
        local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        local root = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
        Iterator = 1
        if humanoid ~= nil then
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
            cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
            local ts = TweenInfo.new(0.0001,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.In,0,false,0)
            local Goals = {CFrame = focus.CFrame}
            local move = tween:Create(cam,ts,Goals)
            move:Play()
            if root ~= nil then
                root.CFrame = game.Workspace.queue.CFrame
            end
            wait(0.5)

            local buttons = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
            local Frame = Instance.new("Frame")
            local back = Instance.new("ImageButton")
            local front = Instance.new("ImageButton")
            local home = Instance.new("TextButton")

            buttons.Name = "buttons"
            buttons.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
            buttons.ZIndexBehavior = Enum.ZIndexBehavior.Sibling

            Frame.Parent = buttons
            Frame.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255)
            Frame.BackgroundTransparency = 1.000
            Frame.Size = UDim2.new(0, 100, 0, 100)

            back.Name = "back"
            back.Parent = Frame
            back.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            back.Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, 3.05000019, 0)
            back.Size = UDim2.new(0, 73, 0, 84)
            back.Rotation = 180.000
            back.Image = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=4726772330"
            back.BackgroundTransparency = 1

            front.Name = "front"
            front.Parent = Frame
            front.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            front.Position = UDim2.new(11.1300001, 0, 3.05000019, 0)

            front.Image = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=4726772330"
            front.BackgroundTransparency = 1

            home.Name = "home"
            home.Parent = Frame
            home.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(244, 80, 255)
            home.Position = UDim2.new(4.91000032, 0, 7.48000002, 0)
            home.Size = UDim2.new(0, 267, 0, 66)
            home.Font = Enum.Font.SourceSans
            home.Text = "Back Home"
            home.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            home.TextScaled = true
            home.TextSize = 14.000
            home.TextWrapped = true

            player.PlayerGui.buttons.Frame.home.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
                cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
                script.Parent.buttons:Destroy()
                humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
                Iterator = 1
            end)

            script.Parent.buttons.Frame.front.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
                if Iterator <= 4 then
                    Iterator = Iterator + 1
                    local count = tostring(Iterator)
                    local val = "col"..count
                    local focus2 = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(tostring(val))
                    local ts2 = TweenInfo.new(2,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.In,0,false,0)
                    local Goals2 = {CFrame = focus2.CFrame}
                    local move2 = tween:Create(cam,ts2,Goals2)
                    move2:Play()
                else
                    Iterator = 0
                end
            end)
        end
        wait(2)
        active = false
    end
end)

use workspace.CurrentCamera, not Camera proqrammed 285 — 4y

That script is a listener for events happening. Whenever the block is touched, doesn't matter who touched it, it will run on all clients. Try changing to to a server script and getting the player from the character. killerbrenden 1537 — 4y

@killerbrenden good idea, i didnt think of that proqrammed 285 — 4y

@killerbrenden It works when I make it into a script but it will not change the cameratype to scriptable even when I tell it to, the cameratype remains custom IProgram_CPlusPlus 58 — 4y

How do I fix this???

@killerbrendan and @ProqrammedGreen Everything works excepts for the camera, the camera will not move to where I want it to go, it remains a normal camera. Here is the new code:

local cam = workspace.Camera
local focus = game.Workspace.col1
local tween = game:GetService("TweenService")
local active = false

game.Workspace.Shop.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if not active then
        active = true
        local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
        local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        local root = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
        Iterator = 1
        if humanoid ~= nil then
            humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
            cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
            local ts = TweenInfo.new(0.0001,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.In,0,false,0)
            local Goals = {CFrame = focus.CFrame}
            local move = tween:Create(cam,ts,Goals)
            move:Play()
            if root ~= nil then
                root.CFrame = game.Workspace.queue.CFrame
            end
            wait(0.5)

            local buttons = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
            local Frame = Instance.new("Frame")
            local back = Instance.new("ImageButton")
            local front = Instance.new("ImageButton")
            local home = Instance.new("TextButton")

            buttons.Name = "buttons"
            buttons.Parent = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
            buttons.ZIndexBehavior = Enum.ZIndexBehavior.Sibling

            Frame.Parent = buttons
            Frame.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255)
            Frame.BackgroundTransparency = 1.000
            Frame.Size = UDim2.new(0, 100, 0, 100)

            back.Name = "back"
            back.Parent = Frame
            back.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            back.Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, 3.05000019, 0)
            back.Size = UDim2.new(0, 73, 0, 84)
            back.Rotation = 180.000
            back.Image = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=4726772330"
            back.BackgroundTransparency = 1

            front.Name = "front"
            front.Parent = Frame
            front.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            front.Position = UDim2.new(11.1300001, 0, 3.05000019, 0)

            front.Image = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=4726772330"
            front.BackgroundTransparency = 1

            home.Name = "home"
            home.Parent = Frame
            home.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(244, 80, 255)
            home.Position = UDim2.new(4.91000032, 0, 7.48000002, 0)
            home.Size = UDim2.new(0, 267, 0, 66)
            home.Font = Enum.Font.SourceSans
            home.Text = "Back Home"
            home.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
            home.TextScaled = true
            home.TextSize = 14.000
            home.TextWrapped = true

            player.PlayerGui.buttons.Frame.home.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
                cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
                player.PlayerGui.buttons:Destroy()
                humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
                Iterator = 1
            end)

            player.PlayerGui.buttons.Frame.front.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
                if Iterator <= 4 then
                    Iterator = Iterator + 1
                    local count = tostring(Iterator)
                    local val = "col"..count
                    local focus2 = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(tostring(val))
                    local ts2 = TweenInfo.new(2,Enum.EasingStyle.Quad,Enum.EasingDirection.In,0,false,0)
                    local Goals2 = {CFrame = focus2.CFrame}
                    local move2 = tween:Create(cam,ts2,Goals2)
                    move2:Play()
                else
                    Iterator = 0
                end
            end)
        end
        wait(2)
        active = false
    end
end)

Why is this LocalScript is running for all of the clients in the game?
