Tried lots of things, and it didn't work. All of the 'pops' are unions of bollards. Script is in ServerScriptService, remoteevent named Bollards is in replicatedstorage.

Tried firing it.

1game.ReplicatedStorage.Bollards:FireServer("Deploy")
2game.ReplicatedStorage.Bollards:FireServer("Retract")

Both won't work. Any ideas?

You might want to put all of those "PopOne" through "PopSix" in a table so you can just loop through all of them to set the Transparancy and CanCollide properties. And you can at least make a variable for "game.Workspace.RoadBlock". GoldenPhysics 474 — 7y

01game.ReplicatedStorage.Bollards.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, mode) -- first argument on `OnServerEvent`'s are always the player that fired the server
02for k, v in ipairs(workspace.RoadBlock:GetChildren()) do -- shorten your script by using a for loop instead
03        if mode == "Retract" then
04        v.Transparency = 1
05        v.CanCollide = false
06    elseif mode == "Deploy" then
07            v.Transparency = 0
08        v.CanCollide = true
09        end
