Hi, I have this function in a local script here:

UserInputService.InputBegan:connect(function(key)
	game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:connect(function()
		if(key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W)then	
			remote:FireServer('W')
		end
		if(key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.S)then
			remote:FireServer('S')
		end
	end)
end)

Since I added in renderstepped (I want it to update something every frame), the if statements would be run even when I am no longer holding down the W / S keys. Any explanations and solutions? Thanks in advance.

you're connecting to the event each time InputBegan is fired. the event fires every render cycle.

You really need to think about how practical doing this is on a game, all clients firing the server using RenderStepped.

I had some doubts, but I don't know any other way to connect the inputbegan from a local script to a server script. Is there a more efficient way?

Fire on input start and input stop, rather than every frame.
