You press the corresponding number key, or click the square.

But I will also tell you that, whatever it is you're doing, you probably don't need a HopperBin for it.

Do. NOT. USE. HOPPERBINS.

Just make the tool invisible or make it so the characters hand is down; Hopperbins break VERY often and need to be fixed often too

thanks for the info. I would just use player:GetMouse, but I'm using tools more for logistics. it would be too complex.

Tools are going to just be easier. I could use coroutines or something with localscripts, but roblox has already done half the work for me. Lots of people criticize for using what roblox gives you, but I feel that computer scientists that have experience and are programming in c++ know what they are doing.

You guys are haters. Hopperbins are the best. It's just that you can't equip through scripts.

Of course, I haven't had a need to use hopperbins in some time. I'm using Player:GetMouse() now a days.

isn't .Selected a read only thing?

Essentially, since LocalScripts don't run unless descendants of a Player, HopperBins are quite useful. While they do have their kinks now and then, they aren't usually hard to get around and is much easier than using a tool with a LocalScript. That's why I feel HopperBins are better than tools when it comes to technical stuff, like function related things based on stats and click spots.

And .Selected is an event (or w/e) fired when a Tool is selected. It's stuff you would find in the classic Rocket Launcher or Slingshot. Which does make it read only.
