Remote events is an event that you can fire remotely. They are used to have something happen on either the server or client from the opseriot type of script.

For example, if you want a UI button to be clicked and then something happen on the server, the UI button click should be detected via a local script however due to us wanting something to happen on the server we can use a remote event to fire to the server.

Have you tried taking a look the the documentation? RemoteEvent | Roblox Creator Documentation

Yes, I know what a remote event does but when i try implement it into this code

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
	wait(0.01)
	if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.E then
		if PunchLanded == true then
			if not CD then
				CD = true
				local Event = nil 
				local Hitbox = RS.GroundPunchHB:Clone()
				Hitbox.CFrame = HRP.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-3,0)
				Hitbox.Parent = workspace

				Event = Hitbox.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
					local hum = hit.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
					if hum and hum.Parent.Name ~= Plr.Name then
						if not Debounce then
							Debounce = true
							local Indicator = RS:WaitForChild("DmgIndicator")
							if Indicator then
								if PunchLanded == true then
									wait(0.1)
									local gui = Indicator:Clone()
									gui.Parent = hit.Parent.HumanoidRootPart
									gui.Shadow.Text = "-"..tostring(damage)
									gui.Shadow.Damage.Text = "-"..tostring(damage)
									gui.StudsOffset = Vector3.new(math.random(-2,2), math.random(-2,2), math.random(-2,2))
									local TweenDamageGui = game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(gui, TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Bounce, Enum.EasingDirection.Out, 0, false), {Size = UDim2.new(1.5, 0 , 1.5 , 0)})
									TweenDamageGui:Play()
									game.Debris:AddItem(gui, 1.5)
									wait(0.1)
									hum:TakeDamage(damage)
									wait(0.3)
									Debounce = false
								end
							end
						end
					end
				end)
				local weld = Instance.new("ManualWeld")
				weld.Part0 = Hitbox
				weld.Part1 = HRP
				weld.C0 = weld.Part0.CFrame:ToObjectSpace(weld.Part1.CFrame)
				weld.Parent = weld.Part0
				wait(0.1)
				Event = nil
				Hitbox:Destroy()
				wait(3)
				CD = false
			end
		end
	end
end)

it seems to repeat the function

Hang on, What. I just re-tried doing it and it worked perfectly fine. I guess i’m just stupid but sorry for wasting time.

its for the communication of localscripts to server scripts
