Whats wrong with this script? It won't activate when clicked

Asked 206 views1 answers

Honestly havn't scripted in a long time so it may be me but my research tells me Im doing something wrong or its just roblox being like that to me it wont even print "Firedfromhandle"

Script

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local PlayerName = Player.Name

function OnActivated()
	print("Firedfromhandle")
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Money.Add.Money["1$"]:FireServer(Player, PlayerName)
end

script.Parent.Activated:Connect(OnActivated)

Event

local FolderForDropMoney = game.ReplicatedStorage.Money.Add.Money
FolderForDropMoney["1$"].OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, PlayerName)
	print("Fired")
	if game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(PlayerName)["1"] then
		game.Workspace:FindFirstChild(PlayerName)["1"]:Destroy()
		Player.stats.Money.Value = Player.stats.Money.Value + 1
	end
end)

I think that is because you are misunderstanding how remote events work, the first argument by default is the player who fired the event, you do not need to send that over, as for playername, you can just do Player.Character["1"]

local script

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local function OnActivated()
    print("Firedfromhandle")
    game.ReplicatedStorage.Money.Add.Money["1$"]:FireServer()
end

script.Parent.Activated:Connect(OnActivated)

Server script

local FolderForDropMoney = game.ReplicatedStorage.Money.Add.Money
FolderForDropMoney["1$"].OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
    print("Fired")
    if Player.Character["1"] then
       Player.Character["1"]:Destroy()
        Player.stats.Money.Value = Player.stats.Money.Value + 1
    end
end)
