Sending Table To Module Script Then Sending It To Script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

What Am I Trying To Achieve?
I stored and made a table of player’s positions in a server script and I will need the table in another script.But to do that I am required to use module script to store the table.

Problem:
In order for my other script that needs to receive the table I would need a module script that would receive the table from the first script.I searched online and tried to see if it would help me but I couldnt understand them.

First Script thats supposed to pass the table to the module script:
local playerLocations = {}
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if (player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position - player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position).Magnitude < 100 then
playerLocations[player] = player.Character:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()
end
end

	local PosModule = require(script.PositionOriginModule)
	print(PosModule)

–I do not know how to send the table to the module nor how to make the second script take the table from the module

My first script:

local playerLocations = {}
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if (player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position - player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position).Magnitude < 100 then
playerLocations[player] = player.Character:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()
end
end

	local module = require(script.PositionOriginModule)
	module:LoadContents(playerLocations)

Module Script:
local module = {}

function module:LoadContents(contents)

print(contents)

end

return module

Second Script the takes the table from the module:
local module = require(script.PositionOriginModule)
local playerLocations = module.contents
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Vector3.new(playerLocations[player])
print(player.Name)

I used some reference from another post.
Doe my one does not work,I still currently finding out why

You can use bindable fuctions instead

you can refer this for bindable functions or you can just wait for a few movements while I code and reply…

Script 1 
local playerLocations = {}
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
if (player.Character.PrimaryPart.Position - player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position).Magnitude < 100 then
playerLocations[player] = player.Character:GetPrimaryPartCFrame()
end
end
BindableFunction:Invoke(playerLocations)
Script 2 
local playerLocations = {}
BindableFunction.OnInvoke:Connect(function(t1)
playerLocations = t1
end)
for _,player in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position = Vector3.new(playerLocations[player])
print(player.Name)

So binables are like remote events sending information from server script to server script right?
