My game content (models, directories, scripts) is all over the place! But is is a mess? Or is it normal?

As for firing remotes or scripts in workspace, how come? I have a sign in workspace, and they click it, and it fires to the client to open the screen Gui. How is that bad? I’m not sure why it would be a bad practice.

ReplicatedStorage replicates items to both the client and the server. Meaning that if a client were to change the contents of ReplicatedStorage, it wouldn’t replicate changes to other clients or the server. You can find out more: ReplicatedStorage | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub .

I just have on click in the object, and it does it’s thing. Sort of silly to have the Client register what it clicked, send the message to the server script, and the server script then alters the object based on what the client said. Or alternatively, having the server script constantly checking if the object is currently being clicked. Or alternatively, have the client scripts altering the workspace objects.

From what I understand, you have one script that’s parented to a part in Workspace. If this is the case, you’d be at a loss if you needed a multitude of the same part. This particular case is common and is solved by the principle of reusing instances / code. You can do this in a variety of ways from having a ServerScript in ServerScriptService that checks each part that is named under a particular namespace or is under a specific folder to using CollectionService to perform the same action under specific conditions.

I’d consider using/looking into the following resources to help you with your problem:

• Roblox Tag Editor - GitHub - tiffany352/Roblox-Tag-Editor: A plugin for manipulating CollectionService in Roblox Studio. & Tag Editor Plugin
• CollectionService - CollectionService | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

Hope this helps!
