What I'm trying to do is update a GUI the player has when they click on a button in the workspace. However, I realized that the PlayerGui can't be accessed through a server script. Is there any way to access a local script through a server script? Sort of like a reverse RemoteEvent when the local script fires a server script. This is in Filtering Enabled

Hello, InfernoExeuctioner!
Remote Events script:
local Event= Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
Event.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage
Event.Name = "ChangeGuiEvent"
local script:
game.ReplicatedStorage.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
-- Change gui here
end)
Change using only a normal server script
-- This will change when the player click the scripts parent
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(plr)
plr.PlayerGui. -- Here you are on the player gui folder =D, change the guis here
end)
Good Luck with your games!!

You can just use :FireClient(plr) and event.OnClientEvent????
