Transferring Values { Server > Client }

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I’ve recently started messing around with ModuleScripts and have ran into an issue -

I create Values in my MainModule script which are then transferred and adjusted throughout all of the ModuleScript’s in use; however, there is one part where the Values argument is sent through a RemoteEvent to the Client. Upon doing this, I’m unable to call any of the Values from my MainModule even to Read them as they come up as a ‘Nil’ value.

Can anyone recommend a work-around? Was hoping to edge away from physically creating new values in-game.

Below is the code used when the LocalScript requires the module:

   local System = { }

function System.FlightControl(Transfer, FlightUI)
  System = Transfer
  PilotSeat = System.Interior["PilotSeat"]
  CurrentPilot = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
  local TiltY, TiltZ = System.Exterior:WaitForChild("Root").Orientation.Y, 0
  while PilotSeat.Occupant do wait()
    if System.Configuration.isWarping.Value == false then
      if PilotSeat.Throttle == -1 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * -50/2
      elseif PilotSeat.Throttle == 0 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * 0
      elseif PilotSeat.Throttle == 1 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * 50
      end
      if PilotSeat.Steer == -1 then
        TiltY = TiltY + 1
        if TiltZ == 25 then
        else
          TiltZ = TiltZ + 1
        end
      elseif PilotSeat.Steer == 0 then
        if TiltZ == 0 then
        elseif TiltZ > 0 then TiltZ = TiltZ - 1
        elseif TiltZ < 0 then TiltZ = TiltZ + 1
        end
      elseif PilotSeat.Steer == 1 then
        TiltY = TiltY - 1
        if TiltZ == -25 then
        else
          TiltZ = TiltZ - 1
        end
        System.BodyMovers.BodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(TiltY), 0) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(TiltZ))
      end
    else
    end
  end
end

I don’t have an answer but a tip for the future is to indent the code and not have spaces between every line. This would make it much easier for someone to read and understand your code.

Unrelated, but please use intendations and calm with the whitespace. It makes your code much more readable and makes it easier for others to help.

Here’s a formatted version:

local System = { }

function System.FlightControl(Transfer, FlightUI)
  System = Transfer
  PilotSeat = System.Interior["PilotSeat"]
  CurrentPilot = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
  local TiltY, TiltZ = System.Exterior:WaitForChild("Root").Orientation.Y, 0
  while PilotSeat.Occupant do wait()
    if System.Configuration.isWarping.Value == false then
      if PilotSeat.Throttle == -1 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * -50/2
      elseif PilotSeat.Throttle == 0 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * 0
      elseif PilotSeat.Throttle == 1 then
        System.BodyMovers["BodyVelocity"].Velocity
        = System.Exterior["Root"].CFrame.LookVector * 50
      end
      if PilotSeat.Steer == -1 then
        TiltY = TiltY + 1
        if TiltZ == 25 then
        else
          TiltZ = TiltZ + 1
        end
      elseif PilotSeat.Steer == 0 then
        if TiltZ == 0 then
        elseif TiltZ > 0 then TiltZ = TiltZ - 1
        elseif TiltZ < 0 then TiltZ = TiltZ + 1
        end
      elseif PilotSeat.Steer == 1 then
        TiltY = TiltY - 1
        if TiltZ == -25 then
        else
          TiltZ = TiltZ - 1
        end
        System.BodyMovers.BodyGyro.CFrame = CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(TiltY), 0) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.rad(TiltZ))
      end
    else
    end
  end
end
