How do I put stuff like Replicated Storage, Server Script Service and Starter Player Scripts in a module to make them function for gear?

What do you mean with ‘put in a module’? You mean use inside a module?

I have no idea what you’re asking. If you mean you want to use these services in a module script, you can get the services with game:GetService()

--We can get services with GetService()
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local serverScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

--Because StarterPlayerScripts isn't a service, we have to get the StarterPlayer service, and get it from there
local starterPlayer = game:GetService("StarterPlayer")
local starterPlayerScripts = starterPlayer:WaitForChild("StarterPlayerScripts")

Just note that contents changed in StarterPlayerScripts won’t affect the client at run time. You have to instead get the PlayerScripts object on the player.

I think I understand what you’re asking;

You may correct me if I’m wrong but you’re asking: How do I use ReplicatedStorage, ServerScriptService & StarterPlayerScripts in a module script and have them function in a gear?;
If this is the case, you can use the :GetService() function to use these inside a module.

Here’s @GalaxyGourmet’s script that they posted:

--We can get services with GetService()
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local serverScriptService = game:GetService("ServerScriptService")

--Because StarterPlayerScripts isn't a service, we have to get the StarterPlayer service, and get it from there
local starterPlayer = game:GetService("StarterPlayer")
local starterPlayerScripts = starterPlayer:WaitForChild("StarterPlayerScripts")

I must also aware you that if one thing messes up in a module; the rest of the module could break so you need to make sure everything in your module works before attempting to use it. Keep that in mind.
