My own Invite system is not working

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello, I made an invite system for my hotel game that would if I write the player name in the text box
and press the button it will make pop up to the player I wrote , I’m using a remote event and :FireClient ,

Here is the GUI local script:

local playerName = script.Parent.Text
local MakeInviteVisible = game.ReplicatedStorage.MakeInviteVisible


script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	
	if game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName) then
		MakeInviteVisible:FireClient(game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName))
	end

end)

Here is the player script:

game.ReplicatedStorage.MakeInviteVisible.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(plr,InviteGui)
	plr.PlayerGui.invsystem.recievingInv.Visible = true
end)

You are firing Client in local script?
Change :
MakeInviteVisible:FireClient()
to:
MakeInviteVisible:FireServer()

#3

Still not working.

so I tried to change it.

#4

You can’t call FireClient in Local Script I tried and it give me that error.

So what should I do???

(Thank you for trying to help me).

You can use script in the GUI instead of local, and use RemoteFunction that returns the Box Text.

#7

How would I do that?

(Thanks!!!)

In server Script:

    local MakeInviteVisible = game.ReplicatedStorage.MakeInviteVisible
script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	local playerName = script.Parent.RemoteFunction:InvokeClient(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent)--The player
	if game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName) then
		MakeInviteVisible:FireClient(game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName))
	end
end)

That’s how my Explorer looks:

Then in the local script:

script.Parent.RemoteFunction.OnClientInvoke = function()
return script.Parent.Text
end

Its giving me this error at line 3:

 InvokeClient: player argument must be a Player object

in the server script.

Yea you need to call player. By calling the startergui parent

#12

I don’t know why I made it that complex. But there is another easier way. By calling the server to send the invite to that person.

#13

So how would I implement this?

(Thank you.)

#14

Like what I did.

script.Parent.Parent.Parent – That would be the PlayerGui
script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent – That would be the Player Him self

#15

I mean how would i send traffic to the server ??? Remote event?

#16

Look just use easier way like I told you first. Change FireClient to FireServer, then make the server listen to that and send the invite to the client.

		MakeInviteVisible:FireServer(game.Players:FindFirstChild(playerName))

ON server script:

MakeInviteVisible.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, PlayerToInvite)
MakeInviteVisible:FireClient(PlayerToInvite)
end)
#17

Its still not working…

(Thank you for trying to help me!!!)

#19

After MouseButton1Click cause the variable changes and you need to call it again
