server events are not working variables are not getting through?
so this is from the receiving side in a script in starter character scripts:
1 | game.ReplicatedStorage.jump.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(me, mouse) |
2 | mouse.KeyUp:Connect(function(key) |
3 | if key == "Space" then |
4 | holding = false |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
7 | end) |
and this is the sending side in a local script also in starter character scripts:
1 | local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() |
2 | game.ReplicatedStorage.jump:FireServer(mouse) |
and there is a remote event named jump in replecated storage when i print mouse on local script it says instance (good) but when i print mouse in script it says nil (bad) why is this happening?

https://scriptinghelpers.org/guides/server-client-relationship-in-roblox. Please try to understand basic networking before attempting to build a Client-to-Server relationship. You shouldn't be trying to use Client-orientated Instances on the Server, it is meant to operate in LocalScripts only. You can simply detect the key state of the spacebar and send the boolean instead. Ziffixture 6913 — 4y

You're also using an outdated form of keyboard-input recognition, it was superseded by UserInputService several years ago. Ziffixture 6913 — 4y

The API for GetMouse() states: "This item must be used in a LocalScript to work as expected online."
I think you would be better off using UserInputService on the client (LocalScript) to get the player's input, and then fire the remote event. Something like this:
1 | local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService") |
2 | local remoteEvent = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").jump |
3 |
4 | UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input) |
5 | if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space then |
6 | jump:FireServer() |
7 | end |
8 | end) |
I recommend you read the documentation on UserInputService if you don't fully understand.
Hope this helped, good luck!
