Hey, When i run this code it gives this errror: Infinite yield possible on 'ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remote")'. Does anyone know what this is?

wait(2)
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Remote = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remote")

local function RemoteSmall()
    GetWood = false
    WC = plr.PlayerGui.WoodChopper
    WC.BG.Visible = true
    char.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 0
    char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 0
    animation:Play()
    ShowProgress('SmallTree1')
    animation:Stop()
    char.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
    char.Humanoid.JumpPower = 50

end


Remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(RemoteSmall)

I am sure that it isn't an error but a warning RBLX:WaitForChild() yields the thread(the script) until it finds the Remote, it warns you because "Remote" might not ever exist and thus the code below it might never execute/run. Try creating the remote above it or add it manually in studio.

WaitForChild() takes two arguments. The first one is the instance, the second is the timeout. Basically it's just warning you that there is no timeout, so it could be waiting for the instance forever. turtle2004 167 — 6y

If you need help with making it work, you should probably make another question Roardorak 20 — 6y

Not a good idea to make another question, as that's spam and is against the rules... Think next time. turtle2004 167 — 6y
