The Flashlight

Lesson 2 of 20 in Coddy's Roblox Game: Escape the Dark course.

In the dark you need a flashlight. It is a Tool in ServerStorage, and its Handle holds a SpotLight named Beam: a cone of light out of one face of the part, the front of the flashlight.

A player's Backpack is emptied every time they spawn, so the flashlight is handed out on each CharacterAdded. A click with a tool in hand fires its Activated event, on the server too, and that switches the beam:

flashlight.Activated:Connect(function()
	beam.Enabled = not beam.Enabled
end)

Press 1 to hold it, and click to switch it on.

Challenge

Easy

When a player joins, on every CharacterAdded: clone ServerStorage.Flashlight into their Backpack, and connect its Activated to switch Handle.Beam.Enabled.

Press Play, press 1 and click. Then Check.
