Why my eletrocute system isn't working?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m making a game with my friend, and you know that you can’t change humanoid’s walkspeed’s in localscripts, right? But for some reason it doesn’t work!
I need some power boxes to eletrocute a purple guy (no, not purple guy from fnaf)
but it doesn’t work :frowning:

Here’s my three scripts:

Powerbox Server:

local Event = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events.EletrocuteViolet

local Prompt = script.Parent.ProximityPrompt

Prompt.Triggered:Connect(function(player)
	Event:FireAllClients()
	script.Parent.Shock:Play()
end)

Eletrocute server:

local Eletrocute = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Events.EletrocuteViolet
local EletrocuteBindable = script.Parent.Eletrocute
local ShockTime = 20 -- Valor de teste, por isso é 20

EletrocuteBindable.OnInvoke:Connect(function()
	script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
	script.Parent.DamageTag.Damage.Value = 0
	task.wait(ShockTime)
	script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 22
	script.Parent.DamageTag.Damage.Value = 13
end)

And finally, eletrocute client:

local Eletrocute = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Events.EletrocuteViolet
local EletrocuteBindable = script.Parent.Eletrocute

Eletrocute.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	EletrocuteBindable:Invoke()
end)

If anyone could help i would appreciate.

nope, still not working. man i really thought it would work because of a simple and stupid thing, but i guess… no :skull:

#6

pretty sure remotefunction need to use waitforchild like remoteevents like what i used to remember

#7

oh wait, there’s actually a thing here, look:

OnInvoke is a callback member of BindableFunction; you can only set the callback value, get is not available

#8

@How4rdy what does this mean?

some little chars as always

#9

oooh its a bindable function theres a devforum post about this i think from what ive remembered it needs to use :Invoke() or smth like that

#10

but, for some reason i used the invoke thingy, but it still does not worked.

oooh i see now, i need to use a remote function not a bindable function but lemme see if it works

#13

yeah man because as it named, bindable function are function that could be bindable

#14

bruh, the same error but now it’s different it’s now instead of “oninvoke” it’s “onserverinvoke”

#15

I don’t think BindableEvents can cross the client/server boundry like that.

Yes:

– Server To Server
– Client To Client

No:

– Server To Client
– Client To Server

To cross the boundry you need a RemoteEvent.

YAY!!! IT WORKED, Thanks oof! it really helped me!

#17

btw u could use both remote events and remote functions but remote events are better, turns out if u want to use remote function u just need to make it a function like this:

#18

Thanks, but i think i will still use remote events. Thanks for suggesting though

#19

yeah no problem, char limits brahh
