How do I make a value directed towards a remote event not me?
Please encode Lua code in the Lua block code tag (look for the Lua icon in the editor).
I'm having trouble making a simulator and I made a local script in the tool to fire to the remote. For some reason the script thinks the amount is me even though it's not even directed towards me. Here is the script(also I didn't use local player because that bugged also)
1 | script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function() |
2 | local playername = script.Parent.Parent.Name |
3 | local player = game.Players:FindFirstChild(playername) |
4 | local amount = game.ReplicatedStorage.Apple:FindFirstChild("1").Amount |
5 | game.Workspace.RemoteHandler.Eat:FireServer(player,amount) |
6 | end) |

When a remote event is fired by the client, the OnServerEvent function will automatically have the parameter of said client that fired it.
Example
1 | event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player) |
2 | print(player.Name) |
3 | end) |
You don't need to pass the player through, and the only thing you need to pass through is your "amount" variable.
Local Script
1 | script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function() |
2 | local amount = game.ReplicatedStorage.Apple:FindFirstChild("1").Amount |
3 | game.Workspace.RemoteHandler.Eat:FireServer(amount) |
4 | end) |
Server Script
1 | event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, amount) |
2 | -- put code here |
3 | end) |
