How is it possible to replicate a string value from client to server?
So right now, I have a localscript:
1 | script.Parent.Frame.Confirm.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
2 | script.Parent.Enabled = false |
3 | game.Workspace.Text.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = script.Parent.Frame.TextProduct.Text .. " $" .. script.Parent.Frame.TextPrice.Text |
4 | game.ReplicatedStorage.Sign.Value = script.Parent.Frame.TextProduct.Text .. " $" .. script.Parent.Frame.TextPrice.Text |
5 | end) |
I also have a script:
1 | while true do |
2 | print(game.ReplicatedStorage.Sign.Value) |
3 | game.Workspace.Text.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = game.ReplicatedStorage.Sign.Value |
4 | wait(1) |
5 | end |
When printing, it prints nothing because that is how the string value starts.. It shows up on the client, but when on the server the string value doesn't change. I thought you could change a value on the client and it would replicate to the server in ReplicatedStorage, but I don't know how. How would I do this?

Use RemoteEvents.
Read this to know more: https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Remote-Functions-and-Events
BTW...
Client:
1 | local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent |
2 |
3 | script.Parent.Frame.Confirm.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
4 | remoteEvent:FireServer() |
5 | end) |
Server:
1 | local remoteEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent |
2 |
3 | remoteEvent.OnServerClient:Connect(function(player) |
4 | script.Parent.Enabled = false |
5 | game.Workspace.Text.SurfaceGui.TextLabel.Text = script.Parent.Frame.TextProduct.Text .. " $" .. script.Parent.Frame.TextPrice.Text |
6 | game.ReplicatedStorage.Sign.Value = script.Parent.Frame.TextProduct.Text .. " $" .. script.Parent.Frame.TextPrice.Text |
7 | end) |
^Make sure ServerScript and LocalScript have the same parent ig or just modify the locations in the script if that isn't possible.
