Client Script
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Message = script.Parent.Text
game.ReplicatedStorage.SendServer:FireServer(Player, Message)
Server Script
game.ReplicatedStorage.SendServer.OnServerEvent:connect(function(player,msg)
if not LengthCheck(msg) then
function LengthCheck(Message)
if string.len(Message) > 100 then
return false
else
return true
end
end
Error Output-
bad argument #1 to 'len' (string expected, got Object)
When firing a server event, the player (client) who sent the request is already sent to the function. This means our server script is actually getting
function(player, player, message)
You just need to remove 'Player' from :FireServer()
Your error is that you used the:FireServer method with the Player argument when :FireServer already sends that information as default. This is why string.len spits out an error saying it got an Object instead of a string.
Client
local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Message = script.Parent.Text
game.ReplicatedStorage.SendServer:FireServer(Message) -- Only needs the message argument
