#

So I'm making another gun script and for it to work, it passes over some of the tools parts to a server script and stuff. Well I am trying to get the position of the handle's children but when it passes over the handle, the children aren't passed with it. I just need a way to get access to the children when they get passed over so I can get its position. I've tried searching it up and stuff but I can't find what I need

#

local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local Tool = script.Parent

local cooldown = false
local cooldownTime = 0.1

local function Pew()
    Tool.Handle.PointLight.Enabled = true
    local pew = Tool.Handle.pew
    pew:Play()
    game.ReplicatedStorage.DuckShoot:FireServer(mouse.Hit.p, Tool.Handle)
end

local function Shoot()
    -- Function code

    if cooldown == true then
        return
    end

    cooldown = true
    Pew()

    print("Firing")

    wait(cooldownTime)
    cooldown = false
    Tool.Handle.PointLight.Enabled = false

end

Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
    -- Will run when player clicks with weapon equipped

    Shoot()

end)```

#

    Tool.Handle.PointLight.Enabled = true
    local pew = Tool.Handle.pew
    pew:Play()
    game.ReplicatedStorage.DuckShoot:FireServer(mouse.Hit.p, Tool.Handle)
end```

#

This is where it passes over the stuff to the serverscript

#

but when it passes over the handle it doesnt pass over the children

#

In the serverscript

#

local range = 500
local duckgun = game.StarterPack.DuckGun1

game.ReplicatedStorage.DuckShoot.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, TargetLocation, Handle)
    if Player.Character == nil then -- Make sure the character exists
        return
    end```

#

This is where I need to get it into

#

game.ReplicatedStorage.DuckShoot.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, TargetLocation, Handle)

#

I need it to also include the children but everytime i've done it, it fails

#

One thing I tried was to add Local Children = Tool.Handle:GetChildren() and then pass that over but it didn't work

#

I've also tried just getting the part I need and passing that over

#

but when I go to do the position

#

It gives the old position rather then where it is now which is in the player's inventory

#

Actually I found that when I got the descendants of it and prinetd all the descendants, it did pass over the stuff but somehow can't find the new position of the part I want

#

#

So basically I found that my issue is that in the rayOrigin part of my script, it can't find the part of the handle from the tool im holding. It only can find the old location

#

local range = 500
local duckgun = game.StarterPack.DuckGun1

game.ReplicatedStorage.DuckShoot.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, TargetLocation, Handle)
    if Player.Character == nil then -- Make sure the character exists
        return
    end
    

    local rayOrigin = Handle.CFrame.p
    local rayDirection = (TargetLocation - Handle.CFrame.p).unit * 300
    
    local raycastparams = RaycastParams.new()
    raycastparams.FilterDescendantsInstances = {Player.Character}
    raycastparams.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Blacklist
    local result = workspace:Raycast(rayOrigin, rayDirection, raycastparams)


    local laser1 = Instance.new("Part", workspace)
    laser1.Name = "Laser1"
    laser1.Position = rayOrigin
    local distance = (rayOrigin - TargetLocation).Magnitude
    laser1.CFrame = CFrame.new(rayOrigin, TargetLocation) * CFrame.new(0, 0, -distance/2)
    laser1.Anchored = true
    laser1.CanCollide = false
    -- Make the color of the laser cyan with color3
    laser1.Color = Color3.new(0, 1, 1)
    laser1.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
    laser1.Size = Vector3.new(0.1,0.1,distance)```

#

local rayOrigin = Handle.CFrame.p

#

With this part

#

it shoots from the handle

#

but when I make it to the lefteye

#

it doesn't do it

#

it gets the old position of it
