so what I’d have to do is drag the podiums from replicated storage via a local script and then use a remote event to connect the local script to a server script and run the rest of the necessary code there?

Yes, but considering that the only thing that the local script is doing is looping through and firing a remote event hundreds of times it is way more resource efficient to do it all on the server

Just one thing, some events can only run on certain sides, for example, for GUI related events you should use LocalScripts because it is only for one player, and you can’t even run GUI related things serverside.
Example: button.Activated cannot run on the server, and only on the client

yes I’m aware of that. all I have to do is drag the podiums from replicated storage into workspace, type out the prompt script and I should be good to go with minor tweaking.
