I need a function to run after a value is returned

I need the ExtendTime function to run after the CheckVerification function, but I’m not sure how to do this without breaking everything in the script. I’ve tried 3 different way’s that I know and none of them worked.

local REMOTE_FUNCTION1 = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("rf1")

local LAST_VERIFICATION = 0

local function ExtendTime(player)
	while wait(1) do
		LAST_VERIFICATION = LAST_VERIFICATION + 1
		if LAST_VERIFICATION == 10 then
			player:Kick()
		end
	end
end

local function checkVerification(player, verification)
	LAST_VERIFICATION = 0
	if verification[1] == math.floor(workspace.DistributedGameTime) then
		return "verified"
	else
		return "failed"
	end
end

REMOTE_FUNCTION1.OnServerInvoke = checkVerification

I’m not too sure what it is you’re trying to achieve other than having the ExtendTime() function run, or where. But what you can do is have the while loop in your ExtendTime() function not yield by wrapping it inside task.spawn(), note that i’ll also replace some other parts such as wait() to task.wait() and x = x + 1 to x += 1.

local REMOTE_FUNCTION1 = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("rf1")

local LAST_VERIFICATION = 0

local function ExtendTime(player)
task.spawn(function()
	while task.wait(1) do
		LAST_VERIFICATION += 1
		if LAST_VERIFICATION == 10 then
			player:Kick()
            break
		end
	end
end)
end

local function checkVerification(player, verification)
	LAST_VERIFICATION = 0
	if verification[1] == math.floor(workspace.DistributedGameTime) then
        ExtendTime(player)
		return "verified"
	else
		return "failed"
	end
end

REMOTE_FUNCTION1.OnServerInvoke = checkVerification
