So I am currently trying to make a game and I am in need of remote events. The problem is that it is not getting the fire on the server. I am trying to fire a remote event on a local script when the player clicks a gui button. On the server I want it to run a function when the remote event is fired. I have looked at a article already but I am not finding it useful I might just be doing it wrong.
Thankyou for your help.
if you need some of the code I can post it
everyone needs the code to solve issues
When you want to fire a remote event you have to do it from a client script by saying that path of the remote event and doing :FireServer() also inside the brackets you can send optional data.
Then in a server script you also say the path of the remote event and then say .OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
and put code here you want to do.
If you want any more help please provide some more information to help you
ok
local script
local afkEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild(“AfkEvent”)
local tempAfkButton = script.Parent.TextButton
tempAfkButton.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
afkEvent:FireServer()
end)
Server script
local afkEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild(“AfkEvent”)
local idle = {}
local playing = {}
afkEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
print(player.Name…" has fired this event")
end)
where have you placed the local script?
prefix the code with ```
example:
CODE
CODE --with prefix
I have the local script in starter gui in a screen gui. the server script is in serverscriptservice
Are you sure it’s MouseButton1Up? I think you have to put MouseButton1Click
local script
local tempAfkButton = script.Parent.TextButton
tempAfkButton.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
afkEvent:FireServer()
end)
Server script
local afkEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild(“AfkEvent”)
local idle = {}
local playing = {}
afkEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
print(player.Name…" has fired this event")
end)
mousebutton1Up does work i have used it on many other things. I will try it though just to be sure
I think then it should be fine. This is getting printed in the server not the client. So when you go in the server in the dev console it doesn’t get printed?
So i am testing this in play mode on roblox studio is that a problem, i am also looking in the output
Try put 2 dots here
it does have two dots i think its just displaying wrong up there
also the problem is its not reaching the afkEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
change
local afkEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild(“AfkEvent”)
to
local afkEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("AfkEvent")
I’m confused I don’t see any difference other then the color
