Hey I’m wisematheu,

I’ve got this error that comes up when I click the button (please see images below) and it says ‘Unable to cast value to Object’ but I think the variables I put in the brackets do have values so I’m a bit confused.

Local script inside starterplayerscripts under starterplayer

Code:

local event = game.ReplicatedStorage.MachineOrderEvents.Burger
local button = script.Parent
local orderNumber = game.ServerStorage.Ordernumber.Value

button.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function(player)
	game.ServerStorage.Ordernumber.Value = game.ServerStorage.Ordernumber.Value + 1
	event:FireClient(player,orderNumber)
	print("Fired")
	print(orderNumber)
end)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local events = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("MachineOrderEvents")

--Events--
burgerEvent = events.Burger

burgerEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(orderNumber)
	print("Printed!")
	print(orderNumber)
	return burgerEvent
end)

Mind sending a screenshot of what’s under ServerStorage?

Player is already automatically sent any value in the parameters is what’s next so the script thinks that the player is the ordernumber value

Just remove the player parameter

But if he’s using FireClient, player is needed to define who is receiving the call

What type of value is Ordernumber?

Also assuming burgerEvent is a remoteevent,
you don’t need to return anything in the OnClientEvent

Also another word of disclaimer, you should put any interactable surfaceguis inside PlayerGui and adornee them to the part

Is the GUI a child of a part in the workspace? Please send a screenshot of its location.

It is, I believe he’s trying to use MouseButton1Up on the server, while he should be doing anything user input based on the client

Change it to a localscript now and you dont need to use a remoteevent at all

Great! That’s likely the issue. You cannot execute scripts in a GUI that is under a part of the workspace.

Edit: Nevermind, do what @InedibleGames is saying. Didn’t realise it was a Script.
