I told you it has to be RevengeEvent.OnServerInvoke = function(player) when you changed it to a remote function a while ago…

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh about that, does it have to be like that for it to work

#4

Yes it does. That’s just how remote function syntax works…

#5

isnt there any other way to hide it without remote function bcuz it doesnt work for some reason

#6

Wait, why not just switch to a remote event? Am i missing something?

#7

Ok try this rework. Switch RevengeEvent back to a remote event (syntax’s back to :FireServer and OnServerEvent etc.) and then in the local script…

local RevengeEvent = ---...
RevengeEvent:FireServer()
wait(8.5)
game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.DialogGui.Enabled = false

While you prefer using remote events and this script is adjusted to that, i suggest you to read up the functions since they will be useful in the future if you continue to script roblox studio

Fire the client whenever you want. Then, recieve it on the client using .OnServerEvent and it should work

You can also try setting the visible to false instead of enabled. Sometimes this works better, not exactly sure why.

I got to go but i hope you figure it out!

you could just use a remoteevent that fires back to the player so that the client itself disables it (onclientevent)
