For some reason, this only works on play solo
Server sided loadstring IS enabled
Server script:
local rf = Instance.new("RemoteFunction")
rf .Parent = game.Workspace
rf.Name = "loadstring"
function rf.OnServerInvoke()
local toreturn = loadstring([[
print('Hello')
]])
return toreturn
end
Local script:
func = game.Workspace.loadstring:InvokeServer()
func()
Functions are far too complicated to send across the network.
The most obvious problem would be with closures, which can change/read variables:
local myBlah = 5
function changer(new)
myBlah = new
end
changer(3)
print(5);
remoteFunction:InvokeServer( changer )
-- They can now call changer ... and some how... my RAM will be updated
-- with whatever they want?
-- (This is impossible)
You shouldn't use loadstring, and you don't need to send functions across usually. Instead, send the information that that is needed. If you use a ModuleScript, you can indicate which function you're talking about. Or, you could point out a RemoteFunction that needs to be called (if it really does need to be handled by the client).
