Need help sending Role data to client

I need help sending my role Data to the client side so the Role can appear for the choosen player. I am thinking about using a RemoteEvent and have tried.

I am having trouble and have tried multiple methods.

	local Murderer = playerFolder[math.random(1, #playerFolder)]
	table.remove(playerFolder, table.find(playerFolder, Murderer))
MurdererEvent:FireClient(Murderer, "Murderer")

local repStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RemoteEvents = repStorage.RemoteEvents
local MurdererEvent = RemoteEvents.Murderer

local players = game:GetService("Players")

MurdererEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Murderer)
	
end)

What issue are you having exactly?

#3

I have tried Murderer.PlayerId = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerId

#4

i tried this,

MurdererEvent:FireClient(Murderer)

MurdererEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Murderer)

if Murderer then
	print("Murderer found")
end

end)

#5

you’re removing the reference to the Murderer by removing it from the table before sending it to the client, do this:

    local Murderer = playerFolder[math.random(1, #playerFolder)]
	RoachEvent:FireClient(Murderer, "Murderer")
    table.remove(playerFolder, table.find(playerFolder, Murderer))

I see what you mean, but this script does not work. I tried printing it too

MurdererEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Murderer)

if Murderer then
script.Parent.Text = “Murderer”
end

end)

#7

Can you print the murderer on the Server-Side script?

#8

Also, instead of doing this, maybe you can use a “RoundStarted” RemoteEvent with a table of all players and what role they have.

#9

Well the reason on why I am sending it to the Client is because so the player knows what they are.

#10

What are you trying to do with the Information sent to the client?

#11

I am trying to make the text say “You are the Murderer” using the Murderer information.

#12

Hey Stevie, do you need to remove the player from the table?

#13

What do you mean? When assigning roles, it removes the player from the players table.

#14

Just to confirm, playersFolder is game.Players:GetPlayers() right?

#15

Yes the folder is game.Players:GetPlayers()

#16

Okay, that probably means you cannot remove the player from the table. You may be trying to remove a player instance. Try to make a player name table, and then randomize and remove. Only then can you turn the player name into a player instance.

#17

What do you mean by making a player name table?

#18

Instead of storing players in a table, store the names.
So instead of {game.Players.Whoever1, game.Players.Whoever2} do {“Whoever1”, “Whoever2”}

#19

However following this I have just tested the code in your question, but it does print Murderer. So I do not have the issue for some reason

Can I see the screenshots, it might be a mistake on my end.
