May I see your code? I don’t think its anything wrong with what I sent you. At least the line where the error is happening.

Yes this is the part of the code

function CodesFunction.OnServerInvoke(Player, Code) 
local CodesFolder = Player:WaitForChild("CodesFolder") 
  for Key, Value in pairs (Codes) do
	if string.lower(Value) == string.lower(Code) and not CodesFolder:FindFirstChild(Code) then

note: I am planning to do the same thing with this

CodesFolder:FindFirstChild(Code)

Codes - is the table

Ok so is there a stringvalue in the CodesFolder or something?

edit:
nvm

Ok, Instead can you send the entire script? I would also make sure there is nothing else named Value, Code, Key, Codes, or CodesFolder.

edit:
The error does seem to be something to do with a reference error/wrong reference. So double check the names of your values.

Oh I forgot to state that its Module Script Table

local Codes = require(script.Codes)

Why? Just have the table in our script. Also if you dont want to change it just show me whats in the module.

It detects as first return.
So “invalid”

#35

What detects as a first return?

#36 
if string.lower(Value) == string.lower(Code) and not CodesFolder:FindFirstChild(Code) then

and if this is not passed it returns 1 - Invalid

#37

Ah I see change the string.lower(Value) to string.lower(Key). I would also just recommend having the table in the script.

#38

Still and I will probably need to do it.

#39

Well I dont know how I did not think of this before but are you ever calling for the table/is your module returning it to the script (ik it has return but try putting it in a function like below)? As your just requiring the module.

Script (Codes var):

local Codes = require(script.Codes):Get()

Module:

local module = {}

function module:Get() 
	local Codes = {

		testingcode = true,

	}

	return Codes
end

return module

No it still returns as invalid.
