Infinite Yield on something that exist?

Asked 261 views1 answers
events = game.ServerStorage:WaitForChild('devEVENTS')

This is in a Local Script in a GUI

Why does it Infinite yield to something that exist in the ServerStorage

Picture of it in Server Storage : https://gyazo.com/186b59e05879ca48e7bfdecf04d9716c

Error Output is giving: 18:21:59.390 - Infinite yield possible on 'ServerStorage:WaitForChild("devEVENTS")' 18:21:59.391 - Stack Begin 18:21:59.391 - Script 'Players.DevsAtWork.PlayerGui.devARREST.LocalScript', Line 2 18:21:59.392 - Stack End

ServerStorage cannot be accessed by LocalScripts, it's meant for Server access only. Consider changing the storage of 'devEVENTS' to ReplicatedStorage as it can be accessed by both Server and Local scripts!

local object = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage'):WaitForChild('ITEMNAMEHERE')

print(object.Name)
