How do you pass information in scripts though remote events?
I tried to pass information from the client to the server, but it didn't work. I tried remote events, bindable events, remote functions, bindable functions, but none of them worked. Can someone help me? here is my code for client: `mouse.KeyDown:Connect(function() game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer(brickcolor.new("Really Red") server code: game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(color) workspace.Part.BrickColor = color

@Omq_ItzJazmin Isn't the parameter supposed to be input? I know how to use UserInputService, but I use the :GetMouse method, its more easier. But thanks for the help! Finty_james 269 — 3y

it can be input, but you can use other variables too like key or button Omq_ItzJasmin 666 — 3y

Comment under her answer so she can be notified. You can name parameters anything most people use input but I know some use key instead. radiant_Light203 1166 — 3y

The KeyDown function is deprecated, It's better to use UserInputService instead
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/class/UserInputService
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
if key.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer(BrickColor.new("Really Red"))
end
end)
then your server script:
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(color)
workspace.Part.BrickColor = color
end)

What does 'deprecated' mean? NoHaxxxxxxxx 27 — 3y

It means that it is no longer supported Finty_james 269 — 3y

Thanks Jazmin! But there is one thing you missed after I realized. The player parameter. I have seen this many times. The client automatically Passes the player parameter which is the player who fired the event. So I think I just wanted to let you know. Finty_james 269 — 3y

Thank you, so in the second script it would be "OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,color)" ? Omq_ItzJasmin 666 — 3y
