local script
local debounce = false
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
if not debounce then debounce = true
local Create = script.InputVal.Value
game.ReplicatedStorage.AllianceCreator:FireServer(Create)
print("fired to server")
wait(3)
debounce = false
end
end)
normal script inside serverscriptservice
game.ReplicatedStorage.AllianceCreator.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Create)
local NewAll = Instance.new("StringValue")
NewAll.Parent = game.ServerScriptService.AllianceData.Alliances
NewAll.Value = Create
end)
as the other page told me I should have been able to send a string value through the remote event via FireServer() when I run the game instead of bringing up the player it brings up an error, its NewAll.Value = Create

you cant access existing members of playergui from the server
so then what would I do to overcome this?
the client
you could use a remote function to retrieve the values but i wouldnt recommend invoking the client. in the remote event, just send those values along in the :FireServer(). then u dont rlly have to change anything
so I found something that helps explain to what im doing:https://scriptinghelpers.org/questions/60685/how-do-you-send-and-pick-up-something-from-client-to-server
but im having problems with it, I stored the string value from the client inside a value and then sent that value through FireServer:() but it keeps returning my name instead of the value its supposed to use
edit your question and include the local script
mantorok, your problem with the RemoteEvent is probably that you didn't realize that the OnServerEvent event adds a player argument to the ones provided it. Here's the documentation: https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/event/RemoteEvent/OnServerEvent
