Setting up another script inside a script

[sullen epoch]

I have this script inside a part:

`script.Parent.ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance = 7
local script = script
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(abc)
local newpart = Instance.new("Part",workspace)
newpart.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
local randomColor = math.random(1, 2)
if randomColor == 1 then
newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
else
newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
end
newpart.Size = Vector3.new(4,4,4)
newpart.Position = Vector3.new(math.random(1,30),4,math.random(1,30))
newpart.Anchored = false
local clickdetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector",newpart)
local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart)
-- Set the source of the new script
local source = script.Source
newscript.Source = source

end)`

The script is supposed to spawn a new part in a random location when clicked on the part.

Everything is going well, the Click detector is working well but what is causing the truble is this part of the script:

local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart) -- Set the source of the new script local source = script.Source newscript.Source = source

It is supposed to make a new script inside the newpart, the source of the script should be the same as the orignal part, but the script is being created and the source inside the newscript is empty.

Yo i am also getting this error

The current thread cannot write 'Source' (lacking capability Plugin)

script.parent

local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart)
-- Set the source of the new script
local source = script.Source
newscript.Source = source

[sullen epoch]

lemme try that

[sullen epoch]

why put script.parent dude?

script.parent is the part

[bright canyon]

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance = 7
local script = script
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(abc)
    local newpart = Instance.new("Part",workspace)
    newpart.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
    newpart.parent = workspace

    local randomColor = math.random(1, 2)
    if randomColor == 1 then
        newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
    else
        newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
    end
    newpart.Size = Vector3.new(4,4,4)
    newpart.Position = Vector3.new(math.random(1,30),4,math.random(1,30))
    newpart.Anchored = false
    local clickdetector = Instance.new("ClickDetector",newpart)
    local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart)
    -- Set the source of the new script
    local source = script.Source
    newscript.Source = source
    
end)

newscript.parent = workspace

sorry

or maybe just put the newscript parent

idk what you want to put

[sullen epoch]

nono i want the newscript in the newpart

[bright canyon]

but it need a parent

then

[sullen epoch]

ya i put the parent as newpart

[bright canyon]

newscript.parent = newpart

done.

[sullen epoch]

here
local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart)

The newscripts parent is newpart

local newscript = Instance.new("Script",newpart)

the 2nd parameter sets up the parent

[bright canyon]

oh i didnt see that

but the script you use earliear wont work

cuz newscript put in newpart that dont have a parent

xd

[sullen epoch]

everything is working, just the source code is not coping, even the script is being made inside the newpart, but the script is empty

[bright canyon]

you made this using ai?

[sullen epoch]

nah, myself

i am new though

[bright canyon]

nah man

i didnt think you use script.source

idk man but here an idea

clone the script after the newpart is made

[sullen epoch]

nah i think it will work

but smth wrong with my scrpt

[bright canyon]

and the clone script put into the newpart

done.

idk if that work

but with logic i think it will

[sullen epoch]

you can clone scripts???

[sullen epoch]

it will work but i dont think we can clone scripts, can we?

[bright canyon]

idk man

just try

i never experience this type of problem

[grand ocean]

pretty sure you can

[sullen epoch]

ya u can, there is a clone() in object browser in scripts

but idk how to use it, like how do i tell where to clone it

[bright canyon]

uh

let me remake the script

[grand ocean]

local scriptToClone = (...)--Direction to script ex. ReplicatedStorage

local sciptClone = scriptToClone:Clone()
scriptClone.Parent = (...) -- where u want the script

something similar to that

[bright canyon]

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance = 7
local script = script
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(abc)
    local newpart = script.parent:Clone()
    newpart.Parent = workspace
    newpart.Material = Enum.Material.Neon
    local randomColor = math.random(1, 2)
    if randomColor == 1 then
        newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
    else
        newpart.BrickColor = BrickColor.new("Really red")
    end
    newpart.Size = Vector3.new(4,4,4)
    newpart.Position = Vector3.new(math.random(1,30),4,math.random(1,30))
    newpart.Anchored = false
    -- Set the source of the new script



    
end)```

[sullen epoch]

lemme try that

[bright canyon]

there u go

it clone the whole part

[sullen epoch]

dang thanks

[sullen epoch]

ya i wanted the whole part just the brick color to be randomized

[bright canyon]

the script u use is unefficent

[sullen epoch]

bro thankuuu soo muchh dude it workss
