RemoteEvent returning hex values from server to localscript

[StrayanCini]

Hi there! I am trying to update my ModuleScript locally (I have got it set up to update on the server-side and am just trying to replicate it locally).

The way I am currently trying to do this is by firing a RemoteEvent to all clients in the ServerScript, however for some reason the variable that I’m sending from the ServerScript to the LocalScript is returning as a hex value.

My output:

  19:56:12.757   ▼  {
                    ["Colour"] = 0.0588235, 0, 0.509804,
                    ["Description"] = "An enforcer of the law. Keeps the peace.",
                    ["Max"] = 20,
                    ["Total"] = 1,
                    ["Value"] = 1200
                 }  -  Server - RemoteFunctions:20
  19:56:12.790  table: 0xd3dc9037780ae132  -  Client - MenuController:20
  19:56:12.790  Players.StrayanCini.PlayerGui.MenuUI.MenuController:21: attempt to index nil with 'Total'  -  Client - MenuController:21

Here is the ServerScript (RemoteFunctions):

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Jobs = require(ReplicatedStorage.jobs)
local oldJob = nil

function changeJob(player, job)
	local prevJob = Players[player.Name].leaderstats.Job
	oldJob = tostring(prevJob.Value)
	
	if Jobs[job].Total >= Jobs[job].Max then return end
	if job == prevJob.Value then return end
	
	Jobs[prevJob.Value].Total -= 1
	print(prevJob.Value, Jobs[prevJob.Value].Total)
	Players[player.Name].leaderstats.Job.Value = job
	Jobs[job].Total += 1
	print(job, Jobs[job].Total)
	local curTotal = Jobs[job]
	local prevTotal = Jobs[oldJob]
	print(curTotal) -- THIS IS LINE 20
	ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ModuleUpdate:FireAllClients(curTotal, prevTotal)
end

ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.JobChange.OnServerInvoke = changeJob

The relevant parts of the LocalScript (MenuController):

local moduleUpdate = ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.ModuleUpdate

moduleUpdate.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(curTotal, prevTotal)
	--print("Current Totals: " ..Jobs[curTotal].Total, curTotal.Total)
	--print("Previous Totals: " ..Jobs[prevTotal].Total, prevTotal.Total)
	print(tostring(curTotal)) -- THIS IS LINE 20
	Jobs[curTotal].Total = curTotal.Total -- THIS IS LINE 21
	Jobs[prevTotal].Total = prevTotal.Total
	--print("Current Totals: " ..Jobs[curTotal].Total, curTotal.Total)
	--print("Previous Totals: " ..Jobs[prevTotal].Total, prevTotal.Total)
end)

One of the tables in the ModuleScript just for context:

local jobs = {

	["Police Officer"] = {
		["Value"] = 1200,
		["Colour"] = Color3.new(0.0588235, 0, 0.509804),
		["Description"] = "An enforcer of the law. Keeps the peace.",
		["Total"] = 0,
		["Max"] = 20
	},
}

return jobs

You are trying to index a table with a table. This is not possible. You have to index with the key.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to do, but instead of putting the table as a parameter you can put Police Officer instead to index it correctly.

I wouldn’t be able to just set it to “Police Officer” as it’s a variable that changes depending on what the player selects - but I got it working anyway as I realised what you just said - I was indexing a table with a table.
