I knew how to do that, but I want the thing that happens to be server-sided when the player right clicks.

You’ll have to have a local script detect the right click and use a remote event to send a signal to a server script to do whatever you want it to do. You can’t listen for mouse input on the server.

How would I set it up with a remote event? I haven’t done much with remote events.

Here’s a tutorial on remote events. Remote events are used to send messages between local and server scripts (you can send messages both ways)

Ok, thank you, this is a great help!
