So I want to call a function from module script but the server can’t find it? Here’s the issue:
--Server script
print(quest,plr,currentTask)
local number = quest.Execute(plr,currentTask)
the line with quest.Execute errors “attempt to call nil value” and this is the prints:
as shown the function only shows on CLIENT.
module script (cut down):
module.Quests = {
[1] = {
Info = {
["Objective"] = "Jump 50 times";
["Amount"] = 50;
["Reward"] = 120;
["Folder"] = nil;
};
Execute = function(plr,folder)
local success
while task.wait() do
local character = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
humanoid.Jumping:connect(function()
success = true
end)
if success == true then
success = false
return 1
end
end
end
};
I added the module script. Here’s the server script. Local script is irrelevant since it doesn’t change anything in it.
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ts = game:GetService("TweenService")
local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local mps = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local frame = script.Parent
local event = frame:WaitForChild("CreateTaskServer")
local deleteRemote = rs:WaitForChild("remotes"):WaitForChild("DeleteClient")
local createEvent = rs:WaitForChild("remotes"):WaitForChild("createQuestServer")
event.OnServerInvoke = function(plr,info)
if plr ~= frame.Parent.Parent.Parent then return end
local folder = info.Folder:Clone()
folder.Parent = workspace
for i,v in pairs(Players:GetPlayers())do
if v~=plr then
deleteRemote:FireClient(v,folder)
end
end
return folder
end
createEvent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(plr,quest,currentTask)
if plr ~= frame.Parent.Parent.Parent then return end
print(quest,plr,currentTask)
local number = quest.Execute(plr,currentTask)
repeat task.wait() until number ~= nil and number
createEvent:FireClient(plr)
end)
Functions and threads cannot be sent through RemoteEvents or RemoteFunctions (even in tables), either from the server to a client or from a client to the server.
To fix your current problem, I would make a module script in ReplicatedStorage that stores all of the quests, then a client can tell the server which quest they went by referencing the quest’s index.
