i cant seem to make this work, i have been trying to make it so if you press 1, 2, or 3(if it exists) to print the skill name but it wont work :
–PathChoosing (Client)

local PathRemote = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes:WaitForChild("PathRemote")
local pathModule = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.PathChoice.PathModule)

local skillFunction = game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes:WaitForChild("SkillUsage")

PathRemote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(pathData)
	if pathData and pathData.Path then
		print("Received Path Data:", pathData.Path)
	end

	local playerGui = game.Players.LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
	local pathFrame = playerGui:WaitForChild("PathSkillChoice"):WaitForChild("PathFrame")

	for _, path in pairs(pathModule) do
		print("Path:", path.Path)

		for i, skill in ipairs(path.PathSkills) do
			local cloneTemp = script.SkillName:Clone()
			cloneTemp.Name = skill.Name
			cloneTemp.Text = skill.Name
			cloneTemp.Parent = pathFrame
			cloneTemp.Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, 0, i * 21)
		end
	end
end)

local function skillUsage(skillIndex)
	for _, path in pairs(pathModule) do
		print("Checking path:", path.Path)

		if path.PathSkills then
			print("PathSkills Count:", #path.PathSkills)

			for i, skill in ipairs(path.PathSkills) do
				print("Index:", i, "Skill Name:", skill.Name)
			end

			local skill = path.PathSkills[skillIndex]
			if skill then
				print("Using Skill:", skill.Name)
				skillFunction:InvokeServer(skill.Name)
				return skill.Name
			end
		end
	end
	print("No skill found for index:", skillIndex)
	return nil
end


local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")

UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(i, g)
	if not g then
		local keyMap = {
			[Enum.KeyCode.One] = 1,
			[Enum.KeyCode.Two] = 2,
			[Enum.KeyCode.Three] = 3
		}

		local skillIndex = keyMap[i.KeyCode]
		if skillIndex then
			local skillName = skillUsage(skillIndex)
			if skillName then
				print("Successfully used skill:", skillName)
			else
				print("Skill usage failed at index:", skillIndex)
			end
		end
	end
end)

–PathChoosing (Server)

local moduleScript = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.PathChoice.PathModule)
local players = game.Players

local function Path(plr, path)
	local pathData = nil

	for i, v in ipairs(moduleScript) do
		if v.Path == path then
			pathData = v
			break
		end
	end

	if pathData then
		print(plr.Name .. " selected path: " .. pathData.Path)
	end
end

local function SelectedPath(plr, selectedPath)
	local pathData = nil
	for i, v in ipairs(moduleScript) do
		if v.Path == selectedPath then
			pathData = v
			print("Selected Path: " .. v.Path)
			break
		end
	end
	if pathData then
		local pathSkills = pathData.PathSkills
		for _, skill in ipairs(pathSkills) do
			print(
				"Selected Path skill: " .. skill[1]
			)
		end
	end
end

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	SelectedPath(plr, "Angel")
end)

–Module

return {
	{
		Path = "Ruin",
		PathSkills = {
			{
				"Darkness",
				Cooldown = 3,
				Duration = 2
			},
			{
				"My will",
				Cooldown = 3,
				Duration = 2
			}
		}
	},
	{
		Path = "Angel",
		PathSkills = {
			{
				"Divinity Healing",
				Cooldown = 4,
				Duration = 3
			},
			{
				"Enemy Duration", --[[ Selectable skill. ]]--
				Cooldown = 4,
				Duration = 3
			}
		}
	}
}

You need to be more clear on which part of the code does not work, you provided 3 parts, can you tell me where the print does not fire?

#3

on the client, i want it to print the skill name,

 if skillIndex then
		local skillName = skillUsage(skillIndex)
		if skillName then
		print("Successfully used skill:", skillName)
	else
		print("Skill usage failed at index:", skillIndex)
	end
end

but i it wont do that

#4

That’s cause you forgot to set the name of the skill, it’s just index, value instead of key, value

#5

could u elaborate, in what way

#6 
{
	"Darkness", -- You forgot Name = "Darkness"
	Cooldown = 3,
	Duration = 2
},
