I have this script, and inside it there is a RemoteEvent. I was wondering if there was a way it could be multi purposed? So if you fire it, It would be like this
game.ServerScriptService.Script.RemoteEvent:FireServer("Event")
And then you could fire the same remote but with something else like this
game.ServerScriptService.Script.RemoteEvent:FireServer("EventSameScript")
But if you can, how would you detect these?
Thanks
If you wanted, you could have one RemoteEvent that listens for a hypothetical PacketId. When you Fire the remote event, you would send a PacketId as your first argument and then the rest of the data. Here's an example.
On the server it would look something like this:
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, packetId, ...)
if packetId == 1 then
-- Do somthing
elseif packetId == 2 then
-- Do another thing
end
end)
Obviously, you don't have to handle all the packetId's on the same script.
Then on the Localscript you would do this:
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remote:FireServer(1, stuff, moreStuff)
-- OR YOU COULD DO
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remote:FireServer(2, stuff, moreStuff)

You forgot the second 'then' on the Server Script but thank you!!
oops! Thanks for catching that! I was having a bad typing day when writing that :) @CartPlandog

"These" are passed to the OnServerEvent as arguments
??
yes you can do that.. just use if loops to detect what is happening...
