Whta Did I Do Wrong In This Variable? That Should Get The Inventory Folder in serverstorage
I tried to make a local variable and i did not work it just gives me a error i tried doing "FindFirstChild" it just says inventory is not a valid member of serverstorage and when i try "Waitforchild" it just do infiniteyield thing I tried normal way "game.ServerStorage.Inventory" samerror at FindFirstChild And When I Try "game:GetService('ServerStorage')" its the same error in FindFirstChild So What Do I Do? Btw
local ServerStorage = Game:GetService('ServerStorage')
local inventory = ServerStorage:WaitForChild('Inventory')
Thats The Variable Thanks! Its in a local scritpt btw

it needs to be in a normal script remember local scripts only run on client and client cant access server storage 3F1VE 257 — 4y

It's most likely because you are using a LocalScript, the objects inside ServerStorage won't be replicated to the client
so it will always be empty
that's what caused the infinite yield, because it keeps waiting for "Inventory" to exist, but it never will.

You can use ReplicatedStorage instead of ServerStorage, if you need a storage on the client side Azure_Kite 885 — 4y

Replicated storage is replicated from server to client. Server storage is only on the server. SteamG00B 1633 — 4y
