So ive been using remote events for a bit but now ive been wanting to learn how todo this:
So basically i wanna learn how detect the text that the remote event “made”
heres my localscript that fires the remote:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Login")
local TextThing = "Hello"
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() 
	remoteEvent:FireServer(TextThing)
end)

i wanna have a server script that will read what the remote text is… but idk how todo that, pls help lolol…

Hi,

So new to events? I show you how a server can get its signal

Like this:

Put this code in the server script and see if it will print the TextThing

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Login")

remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,TextThing) -- When the event fires, then this function will detect that call.
  print(TextThing)
end)

Problems? Questions?

If you need more information about RemoteEvents, I suggest you to look at offical Roblox Forums or AlvinBlox as he makes a series of the most crucial things in making roblox games such as RemoteEvents/RemoteFunctions/BindableEvent/BindableFunction

Happy to help.

When you send a signal to the server with :FireServer(), all arguments inside the “()” are sent as well.
Ex. (Local Script)

local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local myText = "Hello, this is my text."

remote:FireServer(myText) --Will send the Player (always first) and myText

Because I put “myText” inside the “()” when firing the server, that will be passed along to the server.
Note: You don’t have to put “Player” when firing the server, it’s automatic.

Ex. (Server Script)

local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")

remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, SentText) -- "Player" is first because it automatically sets the player who fired the remote event as the FIRST parameter.
  print(SentText)
end)

This will print “Hello, this is my text.” Hope this helped :happy1:
