I already tried and it had the same problem.

It literally just doesnt want to work.

local RGB = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("LoadoutGui")

local RGB1 = RGB.Loadout.SpawnMenu.Loadout.RGB.Text

task.spawn(function()
	while true do
		value.Value = RGB1
		print(value)
		wait(0.1)
	end
end)

Hold on just a minute

If you need the server to get the text, use a LocalScript, a Script and a RemoteEvent to send the text box’s text to the server.

Also, you can’t do Color3.fromRGB(text) as you cant use a string for a color. Separate the string using string.split(text, ",") and use these values instead.

I dont really understand RemoteEvents.

I looked at this and it didnt help at all: Remote Functions and Events

Well, thats a thing to think about after I get through this TextBox heck.

(If it even registered it in the first place)

I know kinda late but the only one that didnt work is print(color)

It printed nothing.

(I feel like this has already been established by now)

Ok, so you have a RemoteEvent instance.
The client can do:

RemoteEvent:FireServer(data)

data being the thing the player sends

The server can do:

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent(function(player, data)
    -- stuff here
end)

Connect an event that does stuff everytime the client does their thing, automatically receiving the Player instance of who did it and the data.

For your case you would check with the textbox’s event that lets you detect when the player inputs something in it and it would FireServer and the server can handle it.

that looks right :+1:.
I think that using remotes is your best option considering you can just rely on the server!

Well thanks for explaining me but I still dont understand like what to put where the “data” is.

Like should player.PlayerGui.LoadoutGui.Loadout.SpawnMenu.Loadout.RGB.Text be in there.

Or should

target.Color = Color3(color)
						print(color)

be in “-- stuff here”

Sorry but I literally just dont understand it.

Im used to logical thinking and this has no logic to it at all for me.

You would put the TextBox’s Text there. (player.PlayerGui.LoadoutGui.Loadout.SpawnMenu.Loadout.RGB.Text)

It should.

Most stuff doesn’t make much sense unless you look deeper into it.

I guess you used script instead of local script

That would be a good guess I would say.

Not really a guess since its literally there in the post description.

i don’t understand your problem. People already said to use remote events and that is a correct answer

The problem is that my 2 brain cells cant understand remote events so someone is explaining it to me.
