I’m trying to create a verification screen, to make sure if a player would like to start a paid job
I have a separate script for screen creation and text manipulation, so for that, I use a bindable function to communicate between the client so I don’t have to create the same function several times
First Script:
AreYouSureBF.OnInvoke = function(context,message)
print(context,message) -- Output: Work, nil (second par. doesn't matter)
AreYouSureFrame.Visible = true
...
elseif context == "Work" then
AreYouSureFrame.AreYouSureText.Text = "Are You sure you want to Work at Home Improvement as a Boxer?"
AreYouSureFrame.Confirm.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
print("click")
return true
end)
end
Second one:
game.ProximityPromptService.PromptTriggered:Connect(function(prompt,trPlayer)
if prompt.Name == "Boxer" then
local SureToWork = AreYouSureBF:Invoke("Work")
if SureToWork == true then
print("Sure")
end
print(SureToWork)
end
end)
the problem is that, as soon as I click on the proximity prompt, the output returns nil and does not follow the constructor, where it would only return true if I clicked on the “YES” button
AreYouSureBF.OnInvoke = function(context,message)
AreYouSureFrame.Visible = true
if context == ? then
-- ?
elseif context == "Work" then
AreYouSureFrame.AreYouSureText.Text = "Are You sure you want to Work at Home Improvement as a Boxer?"
AreYouSureFrame.Confirm.MouseButton1Click:Wait()
return true
end
end
The value is returned to the RBXScriptConnection that comes from MouseButton1Click:Connect, not your BindableFunction. You don’t get values when you return in a connection.
You’ll want to fix this by writing your code in a different way overall. There’s a couple of ways you can go about changing this including up to changing the overall code structure you have which is what I’d personally recommend. I don’t think you want a BindableFunction here.
My personal advice would be to look into using ModuleScripts here. For the logic you don’t want to rewrite over, you can write a parametrisable function.
