How to fix Remote Event not enabling/disabling bool value?

[Alexpalex448 (ScrumpleJester)]

Hello again! I’ve been trying to use Remote Events to enable and disable a bool value in PlayerGui. For some reason, it doesn’t work. I am using the script below:

DisablePlace.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	local CanPlace = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("CanPlace").Value
	CanPlace = false
end)

EnablePlace.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	local CanPlace = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("CanPlace").Value
	CanPlace = true
end)

Please note that the script is also located in PlayerGui.
Thanks!

I see no problems with that, so I suspect the problem might be on the server. Could you show me the script where it fires that remote event to the client?

@Alexpalex448

CanPlace = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("CanPlace").Value

Get rid of the .Value here and move it to the next line. What’s happening is that you’re not changing the value, you’re changing the variable.

Nevermind, found out that there’s an issue in another script and this one works fine. Thanks anyways!
