What are the differences about Binable function and RemoteFunction?

Asked by 7 years ago

I'm trying to upgrade my datastore and I'm trying to make a Remotefunction or binable function to save data. Which is better and what are the differences?

remote functions work with filtering enabled as to cross the server client barrier. bindable functions can't cross the server client barrier but but can connect a function from one script to another just like remote functions. LostPast 253 — 7y

The Network

Fundamentally, the network is the difference between the Bindable/Remote types.

  • BindableFunctions
    can only invoke callbacks made by scripts on the same side of the network (Scripts -> Scripts, LocalScripts -> LocalScripts (Same machine)).

  • RemoteFunctions
    may invoke callbacks made by scripts on the other side of the network, but as with all RPC interface Instances they may not do client -> client communication (Scripts -> LocalScripts, LocalScripts -> Scripts)
