Remote function giving a weird error?

Edited 4 years ago

This is my first time using remote functions and I'm very confused. I'm trying to make a mod panel for my game in which you can set a player's speed.

My script:

01local DSS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
02local SpeedStore = DSS:GetDataStore("SpeedStore")
03 
04game.ReplicatedStorage.ModPanelRemoteFunction.OnServerInvoke:Connect(function(sender, player, value, _type) -- Where the error is
05    if sender:GetRankInGroup(6323488) >= 2 then
06        if _type then
07            if _type == "Name" then
08                game.Players:FindFirstChild(player):WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Speed").Value = value
09                return true
10            elseif _type == "Id" then
11                game.Players:GetPlayerByUserId(player):WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Speed").Value = value
12                return true
13            end
14        elseif not _type then
15            local key = player
16            local data 
17 
18            local s, eM = pcall(function()
19                data = SpeedStore:GetAsync(key)
20            end)
21 
22            if s and data then
23                local s2, eM2 = pcall(function()
24                    SpeedStore:SetAsync(key, value)
25                end)
26 
27                return true
28            elseif not data then
29                return false
30            end
31        end
32    else
33        sender:Kick("gg") -- Anti-Exploit
34    end
35end)

The output:

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

If you are able to help me I would greatly appreciate it.

I think you need to remove _ from type at line 4 hasanchik 49 — 4y

^ Okay, I'll try that. ParticularlyPenguin 71 — 4y

Nope, not the problem. ParticularlyPenguin 71 — 4y

Seems like you haven't invoked the remote function.. SilentsReplacement 468 — 4y

I have- ParticularlyPenguin 71 — 4y

You don’t need to pass player. InvokeServer and FireServer automatically pass the player SethHeinzman 284 — 4y

No, that's not the case. I just looked at the Roblox developer page and it said it didn't.' ParticularlyPenguin 71 — 4y

You still need player in the OnServerInvoke though SethHeinzman 284 — 4y
