Yes, but make sure to adjust it to your needs, as what I just showed was a general example of how to use it.

(Also, my mistake, add a parenthesis after “MarketplaceService”, I forgot to add that.)

#8

its not working but would that be because of the highlighted errors in the code (haspass, player, gamepassid end and local)

#9

could it also be to do with this code?

still cant find the solution, any ideas?

#11

Try replacing your server script with this.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")

checkGamepassEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("CheckGamepassEvent")

local gamepassId = 870314415

checkGamepassEvent.OnServerInvoke = function(player)
	return MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamepassId)
end

(Make sure checkGamepassEvent is a RemoteFunction!)

#12

sorry what do you mean by remote function? (im still learning lua btw) is that the same as a remote event? also could the problem be to do with my npc?

#13

A RemoteFunction is slightly different from a RemoteEvent. Basically, a RemoteFunction is a way to communicate across client-side boundaries, whereas a RemoteEvent can only transfer information, without receiving a result in return. More information here if it helps: RemoteFunction | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

From what I see, you’re npcs should be fine, only because of the little information I have currently.

#14

thank you for explaining, and if you would like any information of the scripts or npc or anything let me know

#15

It would be helpful if you sent a picture of your npc folder with your npcs in explorer, just to confirm it matches with your code.

Also, did the piece of code I sent you work on post #11? Just curious, sorry if I sound impatient.

It seems like checkGamepassEvent is still a RemoteEvent. Try changing it to a RemoteFunction, then try again.

second part to it? not sure why

#23

Instead of selection boxes, try using highlights. This way, you can see it through walls.

local function highlightNPCs()
	local npcsFolder = game.Workspace:FindFirstChild("NPCs")
	
	if npcsFolder then
		for _, npc in pairs(npcsFolder:GetChildren()) do
			if npc:IsA("Model") then
				local highlight = Instance.new("Highlight")
				highlight.Parent = npc
				
				highlight.FillColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
				highlight.OutlineColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
				
				highlight.FillTransparency = 0.5
				highlight.OutlineTransparency = 0
			end
		end
	else
		warn("No NPCs folder found in Workspace")
	end
end
