I need the client to be able to send messages/signals to the server along with arguments, basically the same as remote events. But I need a way of doing this without using remote events, it is for an anti-cheat. Firing remotes is vulnerable to exploits that pick up the signal and arguments passed by. Using a different method other than firing remotes would be more secure since these types of exploits only pickup remote events. Any ideas?

Client to Server communication messages without RemoteEvents?

You could use ModuleScripts but it is literally impossible to get rid of exploiters 100%, they are able to see everything that is Client-Side and it doesn't matter if you use Remote Events, Remote Functions, Module Scripts, etc.. If an Instance has a way to communicate to the client or is located on the client, exploiters can fire, read and download your code. Everything else that is exclusively Server-Side (DataStores, ServerScriptService, etc..) is protected by ROBLOX and FilteringEnabled

Yeah but it would work for less experienced and non desperate exploiters. I heard something about that chat events could work do you have an idea about them?

Never heard of them, but if you really want to be exploiter-proof then you could implement anti-cheat systems and get creative with them, I also found a post on the Devforum about detecting when a program edits the CoreGui, would pass like but I forgot

I think RemoteEvents are the only way Scripts and LocalScripts can communicate. So, I don't think it's possible for Scripts and LocalScripts to send messages without RemoteEvents.
