So, I'm currently working on opening a door but it isnt working. So yes it does open the doors but it doesnt close..

Heres my script

local openfrontdoors = script.Parent
local key = game.ReplicatedStorage.getKey:InvokeServer("getkey")
local checkdoor = game.ReplicatedStorage.checkdoor:InvokeServer("status",key)

openfrontdoors.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
    if checkdoor == false then
        print(checkdoor)
        game.ReplicatedStorage.OpenDoors:FireServer("closefrontdoor",script.Parent.Parent.Parent,key)
elseif checkdoor == true then
print(checkdoor)
game.ReplicatedStorage.OpenDoors:FireServer("openfrontdoor",script.Parent.Parent.Parent,key)
end

end)

        game.ReplicatedStorage.OpenDoors:FireServer("openfrontdoor",script.Parent.Parent.Parent,key)
    end
end)

This should work. You weren't redefining key and checkdoor every time you clicked so it was always the same value and it never changed. So this new version of the script redefines it every time you click so that the value is always updated.

Try this

local openfrontdoors = script.Parent local key = game.ReplicatedStorage.getKey:InvokeServer("getkey") local checkdoor = game.ReplicatedStorage.checkdoor:InvokeServer("status",key)

openfrontdoors.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() if checkdoor == false then print(checkdoor) game.ReplicatedStorage.OpenDoors:FireServer("closefrontdoor",script.Parent.Parent.Parent,key) else if checkdoor == true then print(checkdoor) game.ReplicatedStorage.OpenDoors:FireServer("openfrontdoor",script.Parent.Parent.Parent,key) end end end)
