Event not sending input, instead sending player

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

my script here is supposed to send the id from an input a player made to a radio that plays that id, however the input keeps coming in as the player, i don’t know why this is happening, can someone explain this
local script:

local play = script.Parent.Play
local stop = script.Parent.Stop
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local frame = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Frame")

frame:WaitForChild("Play").MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	local input = tonumber(frame:WaitForChild("Input").Text)
	if input then
		play:FireServer(player, input)
	end
end)
frame:WaitForChild("Stop").MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	stop:FireServer(player)
end)

server script:

local play = script.Parent.Play
local stop = script.Parent.Stop

play.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, input)
	local character = player.Character
	local radio  = character:WaitForChild("Radio")
	print(input)
	print(player)
	radio.Music:Stop()
	radio.Music.SoundId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id="..input
	radio.Music:Play()
end)

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local parent = script.Parent
local play = parent.Play
local stop = parent.Stop
local frame = parent.Frame
local playBtn = frame.Play
local stopBtn = frame.Stop
local inputBox = frame.Input

playBtn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local input = tonumber(inputBox.Text)
	if input then
		play:FireServer(input)
	end
end)

stopBtn.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	stop:FireServer()
end)

local parent = script.Parent
local play = parent.Play
local stop = parent.Stop

play.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, input)
	local character = player.Character
	local radio  = character:WaitForChild("Radio")

	radio.Music:Stop()
	radio.Music.SoundId = "rbxassetid://"..input
	radio.Music.Loaded:Wait()
	radio.Music:Play()
end)

When you fire the server from a client the player instance belonging to the client which fired the server is automatically sent to the server (passed as an implicit argument to the :FireServer() call).

so it does not have to send the player to the server? is that because its from a local script attached to the player?

#4

why is it that
radio.Music.Loaded:Wait()
causes the script to stop working after you reset?

#5

If you Fire an event from client to server the first argument is always the player so that the server knows who sent it.

radio.Music.Loaded:Wait() Is just pausing the code until the music has loaded so I’m not really sure why that would stop working

I think its because after the player has died there is no “Radio” in the player? or the Radio may not have a “Music” Descendant?

Check whichever script is adding the Radio to the character and make sure it is doing it every time the players character is added

no its fine i already made a workaround
