I have built a pickaxe tool, and in Build Mode it works perfectly, well as perfectly as its supposed to at the moment.

But then when I play on Play mode just normally you know, the Gun Cursor thing dosn't even load for it! I don't know whats wrong... any ideas?

You are using regular scripts where you should use localscripts. In solo mode, the client is the server so that is not a problem, but online it will not function properly.

It also can be something to do with magnitude sometimes, like some auto-doors i see work only in play solo

Heh... Ok now its sorta working in play mode, but it is doing other things that didn't happen in build mode, new errors... I can try to fix them. Well when the animation begins, you know the character swings his arms, the pickaxe is falling out, then when its done the legs and arms are falling off. Lol

A localscript runs on a client, for instance, you can access the player's mouse only using one. Or, if you accidentally created an infinite loop, it would affect the client only. A script runs on the server and what happens in it affects the server. You could use localscripts in various locations to decrease the server lag.

Do I access the mouse just by typing mouse?
So
mouse.Icon = "somerandomlink"

You can check for the mouse?
if mouse == nil then return end?
then the icon is just how the mouse icon looks

You could make the "real arm"s invisible, create new ones, then use those for the animation.
