Argument 1 missing or nil with RemoteFunctions

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have a script that invokes a remote function from client to server, however it keeps saying argument 1 missing or nil, I am only passing 1 argument which is the client’s camera CFrame. I tried to find some solutions, and I tried printing the CFrame, but it didn’t say it was nil or blank.

This is my script:

LocalScript

local function Shoot(bindName: string, userInputState: Enum.UserInputState)
	if userInputState and userInputState ~= Enum.UserInputState.Begin then return end
	
	local registerHit = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):WaitForChild("registerHit")
	
	local cframetopass = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame
	local hitData : hitdata = registerHit:InvokeServer(cframetopass)

the script looks ok are you sure the error in the output pointing to this line ?

#3

Yeah, this is a function so it also mentioned the line that called the function and the line in the function that has the error.

#4

do you mind showing the server code that listens to that InvokeServer?

#5

Can I see the full error and stack trace?

Removed script since it can be stolen

I changed the sever script around, I think it was something with the getAcessoriesForRaycast() function. Don’t know why though.

#9

idk why but ihave feeling that you miss one of this parameters of ContextActionService:BindAction(string , function , boolean , Enum.KeyCode or Enum.UserInputType) ig

You don’t have to put the rest

#11

you have to but the boolean after the function and at least one Enum or it’s going to throw an error
you can read more here
