So I'm currently trying to send the Value of an ObjectValue using a RemoteFunction.
In a LocalScript:
local store_item = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Store_Item")
local selected_item = script.Parent.Edit:WaitForChild("Selected_Item")
script.Parent.Edit.Inventory.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
store_item:InvokeServer(selected_item.Value)
edit.Visible = false
end)
In a Script:
local store_item = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Store_Item")
function store_item.OnServerInvoke(player, selected_Item)
local id = selected_Item:WaitForChild("Item_ID").Value
local name = selected_Item:WaitForChild("Item_Name").Value
wait(0.5)
selected_Item:Destroy()
player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.AddSlot:Invoke(id, name)
end
When I test in Play Solo, it work's fine. However in a Local Server it gives me the following error.
attempt to index local 'selected_item' (a nil value)
I'm not sure of the issue... any help is appreciated.

Don't use Play Solo, just a tip. While it takes longer for the Local Server test to load, it is still better than using Play Solo. Perhaps check to see if selecteditem is a thing when running the Server Side thing.
Thanks for the quick response. I updated my question post with the Server Side script. I'm still not sure what is going wrong.
What is "Selected_Item"?
An ObjectValue.
If the objects value is only visible / accessible to one side then it will be replaced with nil, ie both sides (client and server) must have access to the object.
So should the ObjectValue be located in a specific spot to be able to be accessed from both sides? Currently the ObjectValue is in the PlayerGui... should that be relocated?
It would be whatever Selected_Item.Value is as that is what you are passing to the remote function.
