This is really odd. I've made a model that deploy's Toxic Gas into the air. It works GREAT in Play Solo, but fails to produce results in Multiplayer. Not very efficient, but it works (only in offline mode of course).

The Source (Source is divided between 3 Scripts, I have labeled them for you):
-- Main script
local puffer = script.Parent.Parent.output
local POOF = script.Parent.Parent.sounds.puff

local clicked = false

script.Parent.cd.MouseClick:connect(function ()
if clicked then return
else
clicked = true
for a = 1, 111 do
puffer.CFrame = puffer.CFrame + Vector3.new(0, 0.01, 0)
wait(0.01)
end
puffer.toxin.Enabled = true
POOF:Play()
for i, v in pairs (game:service("Workspace"):GetChildren()) do
if v:IsA("Model") then
torso = v:findFirstChild("Torso")
humanoid = v:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
if torso ~= nil and humanoid ~= nil then
if (torso.Position).magnitude <= 50 then
c = script.drain:Clone()
c.Parent = torso.Parent
c.Disabled = false
end
end
end
end
wait(0.8)
puffer.toxin.Enabled = false
for b = 1, 111 do
puffer.CFrame = puffer.CFrame - Vector3.new(0 , 0.01, 0)
wait(0.01)
end
clicked = false
end
end)

-- Drain Script
local player = script.Parent.Name
c = script.toxingui:Clone()
c.trans.Disabled = false
c.Parent = game:service("Players"):findFirstChild(player).PlayerGui

for a = 1, math.huge do
wait(0.2)
script.Parent.Humanoid.Health = script.Parent.Humanoid.Health - 1
end

-- Toxic GUI Script (fades to green for effect)
for a = 1, 200 do
wait(0.1)
script.Parent.Frame.BackgroundTransparency = script.Parent.Frame.BackgroundTransparency - 0.01 -- Not coming out in one line on the forums. Sorry.
end



I hope someone can tell me what's going on. You can get the full model to test here:

Thanks in advance!

I forgot to mention, when online, the puffer goes up, puffs smoke, and goes down. But nothing else happens like it's supposed to.

Since you have the place built and all objects placed, I'll suggest you two ways to find the error. If it's a normal script, use tools>Test>Start Server and from the server screen tools>Test>Start Player. You will see the server output and all latency will (probably) be simulated. If it's a local script, simply check the logs in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Roblox\logs (for Windows7).

Work's perfectly fine. However I think I might know the issue, it might be related to the place I test it in. (Slimesick's Insert Wars). I'll be back with a responce shortly.

Works fine. It was just the place. Thank you for your help anyways!
