Make the gold thing pass the parameter of the remotefunction
use my format I sent earlier
It shows you how to change gui by server
How do I add the players to the list?
also I got this error: RenderStepped event can only be used from local scripts
by scripting it, or just do. ‘All Players’
I mean it is better to just add a remote even when player has changed the GUI, make it so you can pass the GOLD thing onto the parameter and then make the rest of the script on the server. That’s why not anything was being passed throught or printed.
Should I keep it as a local script?
That is correct. If you would like to show the placeholder tower for every player, send a Bindable Event to other players with the: Action*, CFrame, Tower, Color, Rotation
Action is what you will do - for optimization
“Destroy”
“Move”

I don’t want the placeholder to show to every player. Just the player that is placing the tower.

the power of parameters. (oh my god the limit)
(removethirtycharracterruleabc)
Listen to me. Make a RemoteEvent called “TowerEvent” on the ReplicatedStorage. Fire it when player was going to put the tower, pass the parameters “Gold” and everything you want to that and make the rest of the script to the new server script. Starts it with a >
Game.ReplicatedStorage.TowerEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Gold)
The rest of the Script.
end)
I forgot to tell you that I stole the code from my other tds game.

Ok so, Do I put the code after the gold script or do I just put the gold script in there?
You also need to make a sanity check to do not lag the entire server cuz of that.
Ok, let’s optimize this so it’s easier to find a solution
Add a modulescript in ReplicatedStorage
