That can means that the script is not reaching the print though.

It’s a local script. Is that the problem?

try this:
local result = MouseRaycast({towerToSpawn})
print(“1”)
if result and result.Instance then
print(“2”)
if result.Instance.Parent.Name == “TowerArea” then
print(“3”)
canPlace = true
ColorPlaceholderTower(Color3.new(0,1,0))
else
canPlace = false
ColorPlaceholderTower(Color3.new(1,0,0))
ColorPlaceholderTower(Color3.new(1,0,0))
end
local x = result.Position.X
local y = result.Position.Y + towerToSpawn.Humanoid.HipHeight + (towerToSpawn.PrimaryPart.Size.Y / 2)
local z = result.Position.Z
there could be an issue where the if statement stops it because maybe its done wrong

Also only in the tower script I use a remote function:
local PhysicsService = game:GetService("PhysicsService")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local events = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Events")
local spawnTowerEvent = events:WaitForChild("SpawnTower")
local animateTowerEvent = events:WaitForChild("AnimateTower")
local functions = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Functions")
local requestTowerFunction = functions:WaitForChild("RequestTower")
local maxTowers = 10
local tower = {}
function FindNearestTarget(newTower, range)
local nearestTarget = nil
for i, target in ipairs(workspace.Mobs:GetChildren()) do
local distance = (target.HumanoidRootPart.Position - newTower.HumanoidRootPart.Position).Magnitude
if distance < range then
nearestTarget = target
range = distance
end
end
return nearestTarget
end
function tower.Attack(newTower, player)
local config = newTower.Config
local target = FindNearestTarget(newTower, config.Range.Value)
if target and target:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") and target.Humanoid.Health > 0 then
local targetCFrame = CFrame.lookAt(newTower.HumanoidRootPart.Position, target.HumanoidRootPart.Position)
newTower.HumanoidRootPart.BodyGyro.CFrame = targetCFrame
animateTowerEvent:FireAllClients(newTower, "Attack")
target.Humanoid:TakeDamage(config.Damage.Value)
if target.Humanoid.Health <= 0 then
player.Gold.Value += target.Humanoid.MaxHealth
end
task.wait(config.Cooldown.Value)
end
task.wait(0.1)
tower.Attack(newTower, player)
end
function tower.Spawn(player, name, cframe)
local allowedToSpawn = tower.CheckSpawn(player, name)
if allowedToSpawn then
local newTower = ReplicatedStorage.Towers[name]:Clone()
newTower.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = cframe
newTower.Parent = workspace.Towers
newTower.HumanoidRootPart:SetNetworkOwner(nil)
local bodyGyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro")
bodyGyro.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
bodyGyro.D = 0
bodyGyro.CFrame = newTower.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
bodyGyro.Parent = newTower.HumanoidRootPart
for i, object in ipairs(newTower:GetDescendants()) do
if object:IsA("BasePart") then
PhysicsService:SetPartCollisionGroup(object, "Tower")
end
end
player.Gold.Value -= newTower.Config.Price.Value
player.PlacedTowers.Value += 1
coroutine.wrap(tower.Attack)(newTower, player)
else
warn("Requested tower does not exist:", name)
end
end
spawnTowerEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(tower.Spawn)
function tower.CheckSpawn(player, name)
local towerExists = ReplicatedStorage.Towers:FindFirstChild(name)
if towerExists then
if towerExists.Config.Price.Value <= player.Gold.Value then
if player.PlacedTowers.Value < maxTowers then
return true
else
warn("Player has reached max limit")
end
else
warn("Player cannot afford")
end
else
warn("That tower does not exist")
end
return false
end
requestTowerFunction.OnServerInvoke = tower.CheckSpawn
return tower

Where is the module script placed?
Inside of a wavescript that starts the wave. Also the wavescript is a regular script.
Where is the wavescript? (blah blah blah) and the local script
The script is in ServerScriptService
I found the problem, LocalScript cannot access the ModuleScript through the ServerScriptService, Players do not have the access to do that, try changing the ModuleScript to the ReplicatedFirst or ReplicatedStorage.

The placeholder tower is not spawning
Hum that is strange, can you take a screenshot of the ModuleScriptPlacement?
Change that to Replicated Storage
I did and it is still not working.
Try printing on the Start of the script something like: “I am here”
I did and it is still not printing.
Dude why is that happening lol It seems the Local Script is not running!
Have you never thinked the problem would be on the remote function?
No. I never thought it would be a remote function.
