I got Laserpointer from the public scripts on the community page, and when i use it on my server the laser from the gun isn't "on". I have checked the script and it says ON when player spawns. Only way i found to fix it for me was do /laser (turned off) and then /laser (turned on) and it started working but other players have to do the same...
Any fix for this?
