i want to make the door unlock when the player has the key

[night relic]

local key = game.ReplicatedStorage.DoorKeys.Key100M
key1 = key.Parent == game.Players.LocalPlayer.Backpack```
how is it possible for the key which is parented to replicated storage be also parented to the localplayer's backpack at the same time. odd

idk i dont know much about scripting

[echo coyote]

local lock = game.Workspace.Map.LockedDoors.Lock
local cube = lock.Locked:WaitForChild("Cube")
local click = cube.ClickDetector -- for me continuing a path after waitforchild feels wrong

local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

click.MouseClick:Connect(function()
  local key == plr.Character:FindFirstChild("Key100M") or plr.Backpack:FindFirstChild("Key100M")

  if key then
    lock:Destroy()
  end
end)

maybe he clones it there for some reason

[night relic]

wat, no their whole code structure is wrong, i think they're trying to find a cloned copy of the key but aren't sure how to do it

so they compare to the one in storage "somehow"

[daring quest]

ok I think it's better if we don't have to guess lol

hm

does it work @icy kiln

[daring quest]

well you should probably close up this thread then

[echo coyote]

felt generous

also is my comment real or cap

[night relic]

you would need waitforchild for a clickdetector prettysure, but not for chains of models/folders/etc anything that is a container

[daring quest]

yeah doing multiple WaitForChilds just increases the width of the line real fast which goes against readability

[echo coyote]

Yeah but like, is putting .Something after waitforchild or findfirstchild or wtv really that bad as I make myself believe it is

[night relic]

or just make the model atomic and you only need to waitforchild on the model

[daring quest]

I mean depends on the line width imo

that's what you really care about

[echo coyote]

cause it gives me the ick when someone types

local this = workspace:WaitForChild("this").Value

[daring quest]

that's not bad imo

[echo coyote]

idk, i dont like this
