Having an issue with code where it's not properly detecting the correct value for a bool using IF.

--there's more to the script but this is everything you need to focus on
--script 1, Handler
local function fire(player, mouseHitPos, running)

    if firingcooldown == false then
        if tool.Values.CurrentAmmo.Value > 0 then
            if tool.Values.Running.Value == false then -- < Firing even if Running.Value is true. Tested it in studio and the bool value is getting properly set.
            
            end
        end
    end
end

--script 2, remote event handler
--this works fine, I think.
local remote = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Sprinting

local function setRunning(plr, sprinting)
    local character = plr.Character
    if sprinting == true then
        if character:FindFirstChild("Musket") then
            character:FindFirstChild("Musket").Values.Running.Value = true
        else
            return
        end
    else
        if character:FindFirstChild("Musket") then
            character:FindFirstChild("Musket").Values.Running.Value = false
        else
            return
        end
    end
end

remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(setRunning)

is script 1 on the tool?

[primal birch]

well

I mean

I sure hope it is

unless roblox super jank is happening

[rancid island]

so is tool = script.Parent.Parent?

[primal birch]

yes

[rancid island]

and if you print out the Running value, it shows true just before you check it in the handler?

[primal birch]

ah that..

probably should've done that first

yeah the thing is the running value is indeed getting set to true

but for some reason the script is not getting that's it's true

explorer shows this

[rancid island]

Which is why I want you to print it, we have to narrow down the issue. Is the value getting reset, is the if statement bad, etc

[primal birch]

my bad I forgot to say that yes, the print is saying it's false even while it is true

actually let me check something really quickly

yep ok

[primal birch]

the print is saying it's false even though explorer says it is true.

[rancid island]

How about in the RemoteEvent handler you print out when you set it to false and true.

[primal birch]

ok so

as it turns out

i am

apparently

a fucking moron

I was sending the player and sprinting value over the client

inputService.InputBegan:Connect(function (key)
    if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift or key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.RightShift then
        sprinting = true
        running = true
        remote:FireServer(plr, sprinting)
        if char:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then    
            char.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = sprintSpeed
            if char:FindFirstChild("Musket") then
                char:FindFirstChild("Musket").Values.Running.Value = true
                track:play()
            end
        end
    end
end)```

like a dumbass
