So, recently i’ve made a roblox car, and now I need help with making a gui PopUp and then by clicking this gui you can actually control the car, i tried using the remote event, but i don’t know that’s a good idea. Thanks for help! and sorry for my english.

Could we see the code so we will know what is wrong?

#3

I don’t have a script there, I just need help how to make it PopUp, and sorry for being so late.

#4

I’d say using a remote event would work, just use remoteevent:FireClient(player), and within a local script enable the gui with remoteevent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function() and gui.Enabled = true.

#5

Alright, and how can I make that you can control the car by the gui? e.g. Clicking a gui will turn on headlights.

#6

With the remote event the PopUp is working great, but i still have the issue with controlling the car.

#7

Use a remote event again but fire it to the server instead when a button within the gui is pressed, then recieve the remote event in the server script which you can then use to activate the lights

#8

What about a multiple number of cars? Maybe should I recieve the event in the car script?

#9

Yea that would work, although there shouldn’t be any issues with multiple cars as long as you know which player is firing the events

#10

How can i detect the player? Should I use the occupant function?

#11

When you recieve the clientevent on the server, you can add a parameter, the first being the player

#12

Ok, ill make the first version, Thank you so much!

That’s not working, maybe I did something wrong?

game.ReplicatedStorage.CarEvents.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	for i,v in pairs(script.Parent.Lights) do
		v.Light.HeadLight.SpotLight.Enabled = true
		v.Light.HeadLight.Ray.Enabled = true
		v.Light.Color3 = Color3.new(0.996078, 1, 0.72549)
	end
end)
#15

add :GetChildren() infront of script.Parent.Lights

#16

It’s sadly still not working :confused:

#17

v should now be relating to the light itself, so change the script stuff to v.Headlight instead of v.light, assuming that the children of Lights is Light

#18

Im still doing something wrong:

local lights = script.Parent.Lights:GetChildren()
game.ReplicatedStorage.CarEvents.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	for i,v in pairs(lights) do
		wait(0.01)
		v.HeadLight.SpotLight.Enabled = true
		v.HeadLight.Ray.Enabled = true
		v.Light.Color3 = Color3.new(0.996078, 1, 0.72549)
	end
end)

Maybe it’s the local script or event problem?

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	game.ReplicatedStorage.CarEvents.HeadlightsEvent:FireServer()
end)
-- This script is inside a car gui, and that event is inside a replicated storage
