Why do I get this error message, "FireServer can only be called from the client"?

bin = script.Parent

function onTouched(part)



    workspace.OBJCONTROL.Obj1:FireServer()
    workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk1:FireServer()
end


connection = bin.Touched:connect(onTouched)

I have this script in a part in the workspace, and it is a LocalScript. It gives the the error message, FireServer can only be called from the client. The Remote Event is in a folder in the workspace too, and that connects to a GUI that allows it to change text,



game.workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk1.OnServerEvent:connect(function(change)

    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text='The servers are running fine. Weird..'
        wait(7)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''
end)


game.workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk2.OnServerEvent:connect(function(change)

    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text='Maybe I should look for co-workers.'
        wait(4)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''

end)

game.workspace.TALKCONTROL.NPC.NPCT1.OnServerEvent:connect(function(change)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Font="SourceSans"
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text="What's going on?!"
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text="Is anyone else here?"
        wait (3)    
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text="I'll look for others, you should look for an exit."
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text="I will. Bye."
    game.Workspace.OBJCONTROL.Obj3_5:FireServer()
        wait (3)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text=''
end)

game.workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk3.OnServerEvent:connect(function(change)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Font="SourceSansItalic"
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text='None of the lab guys are here today. Weird.. Maybe I should check the Announcement board.'
        wait (4)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text='' 
end)



game.workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk4.OnServerEvent:connect(function(change)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text="A bombing?? I gotta get outta here!"
        wait (4)
    script.Parent.TextLabel.Text='' 
end)

Please help. Also, if I am not clear enough, do let me know.

The LocalScript should just be a regular script. Simple as that.

If this doesn't work, please let me know. I tested it in studio, not online mode, so it might not work there. mustardfoot 90 — 8y

You can simply move the local script from the part into the the StarterPack. Then re-edit the code like:

bin = game.Workspace.(name of the part) --You should rename the part so you can find it

bin.Touched:connect(function()  
workspace.OBJCONTROL.Obj1:FireServer()
workspace.TALKCONTROL.Talk1:FireServer()
end)
