I am getting the same error with a RemoteFunction Please help me understand it?
I have been getting this error with a RemoteFunction, I am sending back a table of Player Usernames when It gets called for a ServerInvoke on my Client.
OnServerInvoke is a callback member of RemoteFunction; you can only set the callback value, get is not available
This is an example of my code:
Server:
local WinnerTable = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("QEvents"):WaitForChild("Winner"):WaitForChild("WinnerTable")
local winners = {"Roblox"}
WinnerTable.OnServerInvoke:Connect(function()
return winners
end)
Client:
local WinnerTable = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):WaitForChild("QEvents"):WaitForChild("Winner"):WaitForChild("WinnerTable")
local winners = WinnerTable:InvokeServer()
for i,v in ipairs(winners) do
winners = winners + 1
end

I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to call back the table that way. you should do return table at the end of your serverscript. It's just like how you would return certain values in a function lesliesoon 86 — 6y

Can you give an example as an answer in a codeblock? uhTeddy 101 — 6y

OnServerInvoke and OnClientInvoke are callback functions, not events, so they can't be connected. you simply set them. cabbler 1942 — 6y

Remote functions aren't the same as remote events.
This is the place where you made the mistake
WinnerTable.OnServerInvoke:Connect(function() end)
Instead you should use this
function WinnerTable.OnServerInvoke() end)

Here's a very simple one it will Damage the player by 10 damage upon spawning:
local script
RF = game.Lighting.RemoteFunction local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer local char = player.CharacterAdded:wait() local result = RF:InvokeServer(char.Humanoid) char.Humanoid:TakeDamage(result)
ServerScript
RF = game.Lighting.RemoteFunction
RF.OnServerInvoke = function(Player,Received) --First Info is always the Player
print(Received) -- Shows that I've sent over a value from the client side
Damage = 10
return Damage
end
RF is the remotefunction's remote, that I've placed inside lighting.
