Hey, I haven't messed around in ROBLOX studio or even played ROBLOX in years but I decided recently to work on a new game. In the game I added a basic Ice Shard tool, a fire blast, and an air blast. These tools work beautifully in studio, I love how they work, but in play mode they don't work at all.
I understand it has something to do with an inability to find the local player? Or something along the lines of there being a difference between loading a game in a server and in studio.
This has become a regular thing; I can't seem to get any of my spells to work in Play mode and I have no idea what to do.
I did not write these scripts for the tools myself, but if anyone has any idea what the error might be coming from I can edit them.
Thanks guys!

| Sounds like a server/local issue, Is filteringEnabled? if so that is most likely your issue. |

If they're old scripts you should fix them up, remove deprecations and use new methods instead of old ones.

| Would they still work in Studio if they were outdated though? |

Yes. Some old scripts does work in studio but not ingame because the scripts are outdated.

| One thing all the tools that don't work in Play have in common is that their tool icon has a little script next to it. I've never seen that before, what does that mean? |

That means they are HopperBins. HopperBins were deprecated a while ago, do not use for work.

You are free to use HopperBin as much as you please, I can't tell you otherwise. But it would be wise if you just use a normal Tool and convert your HopperBin scripts in a Tool instead. ROBLOX will most likely delete HopperBin someday.
