Unable to cast value to Object?

Asked 211 views1 answers

Trying to fire a value from the server to the client (it's just basic info no worrying to be done with the client getting control)

				local cashtogive = game.ServerStorage.ToolModels[player.Equipped.Value].Stats.MoneyStat.Value --OOF ITS COMPLICATED!
				print(game.ServerStorage.ToolModels[game.Players[player.Name].Equipped.Value].Stats.MoneyStat.Value)
				game.ReplicatedStorage.AnimationRemotes.SellAnimation:FireClient(cashtogive)

It prints properly, however it then doesn't fire to a local script and instead errors with "Unable to cast value to object"

The issue is line 3:

game.ReplicatedStorage.AnimationRemotes.SellAnimation:FireClient(cashtogive)

You're trying to fire a remote event to a number! FireClient first argument is the player to fire to, always. Or else the server won't know which player to fire to. Judging from line 1, you already have the player, so just change the line to

game.ReplicatedStorage.AnimationRemotes.SellAnimation:FireClient(player, cashtogive)

And if your OnClientEvent listener has the player as an argument, remove it.
