Why wont my question GUI not work?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I am trying to make a question Gui where admins can write a question and everyone on the server answers the question.

However, when I set up the Gui, there is a script that allows you to submit the question. This submit button does not work and I am not sure how to fix it.

I have tried to find a fix but I could not figure it out.

Here is a screenshot of the Gui, and when I press submit it should print the question and answer choices in the output. However, it prints other stuff that I do not want it to.

For example, when I press submit on this it should send the question and answer choices to the server from a remote event.

In the output, it should print the question, answer a, b, c, and d in that order. But this is the output.

Script on the submit button:

local db = true
local rs = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if db == true then
		if script.Parent.Parent.QuestionInput.Text ~= "" then
			local Question = script.Parent.Parent.QuestionInput.Text
			local AnswerA = script.Parent.Parent.AnswerA.Text
			local AnswerB = script.Parent.Parent.AnswerB.Text
			local AnswerC = script.Parent.Parent.AnswerC.Text
			local AnswerD = script.Parent.Parent.AnswerD.Text
			rs.Remotes.QuestionR:FireServer(Question, AnswerA, AnswerB, AnswerC, AnswerD)
	elseif script.Parent.Parent.QuestionInput.Text == "" then
		db = false
		script.Parent.Text = "Question is empty!"
		wait(2)
		script.Parent.Text = "Submit"
		db = true
		end
	end
end)

Script with the remote event:

local rs  = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

rs.Remotes.QuestionR.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Question, AnswerA, AnswerB, AnswerC, AnswerD)
	print(Question)
	print(AnswerA)
	print(AnswerB)
	print(AnswerC)
	print(AnswerD)
end)

If anyone has a fix, please let me know! Thank you.

Can you please show us the explorer and what names the remote events and things have?

#3

It is printing the answers which the submit button does, Try making it close the GUI to see if the button works like make it disable the GUI

#4

Check if the answers are named properly and have the correct text.

@TheLegendOfSirenhead Okay, I will try it!

@sniper74will Yes, everything is named properly and has the correct text as far as I know.

ACTUALLY I HAVE THE ANSWER!

you see, when receiving the output (OnServerEvent) of ANY remote event the first parameter in :Connect(function(“this one”) will ALWAYS be the player that called the event for example:

if I click a button and fire a server event then the server script should be:

RS.Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player) --Anything that is the first parameter will be the player name!

      Print(Player.name)

end)

when firing the remote event from a client, the first parameter in the :FireServer()

will be the second one on the server

yes, but that doesnt change that it still prints in the wrong order.

#8

Make sure the answers the GUI outputs are correct since the remote event looks correct like make sure the text box that is for B is not where the C textbox is

#9

@HowlingToucan see what I said, the script is correct, but add player before question:

local rs  = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

rs.Remotes.QuestionR.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player,Question, AnswerA, AnswerB, AnswerC, AnswerD)
   print(Question)
   print(AnswerA)
   print(AnswerB)
   print(AnswerC)
   print(AnswerD)
end)
