I need to make a tool, which can detect the part you are currently holding your mouse. I know the mouse.Target thing, but how do you get the player and then check his current mouse when it moves?

Use local script. Also you can just use GetMouse method. Only downside for it is, that you can't change icon.


player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()

mouse.Button1Down:connect(function()
print("Mouse was clicked.")

down = true

while down do
print("Mouse is being held")
wait(1)
end
end)

mouse.Button1Up:connect(function()
down = false
end)

Just edit it ._.

You should know at least that much scripting skills, because making tools is not that easy as other stuff.

Can you also ignore targets while using mouse.Target?

I am currently trying to make it so you can place towers. The camera is rotated to be EXACTLY above the towers.
So when you click the fake tower (why I needed moving) it thinks it's not supposed to be there and just doesn't let you buy it. So I wonder, can you ignore the targets a mouse hits, or just do anything to make it work.

If you want mouse.Target to ignore certain parts or a model's descendants, you can use http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php/TargetFilter_(Property)

Yes, but you can ignore only one model, so you'll have to place all fake towers in one model.

To make mouse ignore stuff, you do this:

mouse.TargetFilter = model

And, probably my last question, can you ignore my game.Workspace.Ignore with MoveTo?

If you are using the mouse position it will ignore parts inside Ignore, But the MoveTo I doubt it will ignore the parts since it wont allow parts to go inside others so will go ontop of other parts but should have the same X and Z positions. If that makes sense e.e

I just put the fake tower in the Lighting for a wait(), then I just put it in again after the tower is placed.
