RemoteEvent not firing?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

I checked, it’s the right remote event, I even looked up how to create a function for this, and this is exactly how they do it, but it doesn’t work for me

#22

Is it printing the “m” in the local script?

#23

It prints “m” in the LOCAL script. But its not printing the arrow value in the server script.

#24

Can you please try adding a print between each one of these if statments

if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Up then
   Remote:FireServer(1)

Maybe it isn’t actually firing, and I do recommend you always put a lot of prints between if statements when debugging, it’s really helpful

#25

Ok now i see the problem, its not going past the if statement (oof) how do i fix it?

#26

ok now its firing, but now it says that arrow is not a valid member of player(problem from server script)

Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, arrow)

    script.Parent.Arrow.Value = arrow

    print(arrow)

end)

my current local script:

local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local Remote = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ArrowBind")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

    UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, processed)
    	if input.UserInputType.Name == "Keyboard" and processed == false then
    		if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Up then
    			print("1")
    			local Arrow = 1
    			Remote:FireServer(Arrow)
    		elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Right then
    			print("2")
    			local Arrow = 2
    			Remote:FireServer(Arrow)
    		elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Down then
    			print("3")
    			local Arrow = 3
    			Remote:FireServer(Arrow)
    		elseif input.KeyCodee == Enum.KeyCode.Left then
    			print("4")
    			local Arrow = 4
    			Remote:FireServer(Arrow)
    		end
    	end
    end)
#27

Did you make the value object parented to the player?

Edit: Instead of what I presume you’ve done (parenting the server script to the player), put it in ServerScriptService, then from your code use player.Arrow.Value = arrow instead of script.Parent.

script.Parent.Arrow maybe doesn’t exist yet, or didn’t load yet? Also since it said arrow is not a valid member of player that means that script.Parent is the player, and this script is parented to the player how is that? Because this is a server script
