If I do MouseButton1Down in a script on the server and make it print when that event is called, it works for a surfaceGui, but since my game is expanding to Mobile I felt that the new Activated event better suits my needs.
However, it appears that it only prints when put in a localscript on the client and not on the server. Is this default behavior? Is there another event I can use to make mobile and PC surfaceGui buttons work on the server?
You can’t use MouseButton1Down on the server, because the server isn’t the one checking for input. All input functions (if not all, most) only work client-sided because the client is the one sending that input information.
No. You’ll have to do it on the client and use remotes to communicate with the server.
I am able to do .MouseButton1Down on the server just fine, I guess that event does not work that way. Alright, thanks.
I don’t believe that’s intended behavior, nor should it be. Any input actions should always be handled on the client.
