Why is my remote function returning nil?

Hi everyone, quick question.

I'm basically sending out announcements in a game to all clients, but before doing so it individually matches the player's chat filtering settings.

I do this using a remote function to filter the chat in a server script, and then return the filtered text.

Here is my code?

Server Script:

local repStore = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local TextService = game:GetService("TextService")

function repStore.filterMsg.OnServerInvoke(player,msg)
	local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
		return TextService:FilterStringAsync(msg, player.UserId):GetChatForUserAsync(player.UserId)
	end)
	if not success then
		warn("Error filtering text:", msg, ":", errorMessage)
		return
	end
end

Local Script:

repStore.sendAnnouncement.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(msg,timer) --this is a remote event that is used for when an admin sends the announcement
	msg = repStore.filterMsg:InvokeServer(msg)
	print(msg)
end)

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Okay your issue here is your listening for "OnClientEvent' you should be listening for "OnClientInvoke" with a remotefunction since OnClientEvent pertains to A remote event. See if that solves the problem!

Found out it was because I was returning it in the pcall function, not sure why but oh well... works now.
