I have a server script that is supposed to fire remote events to clients after a round ends. However, for some reason the client doesn’t seem to be receiving the event at all. I checked that the server script still works (as everything after that line of code still runs) but nothing is printed on the client when I tried using print statements to check. The problem seems to only arise when the remote event is fired after the code RoundEnd.Event:Wait() in the server script below. I’ve tried looking up solutions, but none of them really seemed to be helpful. How would I fix this?
Server script (firing the event, skip until you see a long line of hyphens, that’s where the problem is):
local GameEvents = {
"Landmines",
"Guy with rocket launcher",
"Vent",
"Ghost",
"Bomb",
--"Landmines are spawning, might not wanna stop on 'em",
--"oh look it's a speeding wall try avoiding it",
--"lil timmy's are coming, you can jump to get rid of them",
--"is that a guy with a rocket launcher??",
--"oops i accidentally dropped some pianos",
--"Someone received a bomb, pass it around or you're gone!",
--"Ooh, a spinner!",
--""
}
