Is it possible to get a player from a remote event?
Greetings fellow humans,
I am here to ask if its possible to get a player from a remote event. (which you can tell from the title)
I have put the following localscript inside of a text button:
1 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
2 | game.ServerScriptService.StarterEvents.Player:FireServer() |
3 | end) |
And the following script inside of ServerScriptStorage:
1 | script.Parent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player) |
2 | if player.Name == "xTriton" then |
3 | print'cool' |
4 | end |
5 | end) |
Can a player pass through a parameter using remote events or do i need a remote function for that?
(in case your wondering i started using remote events yesterday so cut me some slack.)

EDIT: theking48989987 is right, nothing can be accessed in ServerScriptService, so put the RemoteEvent to e.g Replicated Storage
When you Fire a RemoteEvent, the first argument automatically will be the player. So if game.ServerScriptService.StarterEvents.Player is a RemoteEvent, your localscript is correct, and your script in serverscriptservice.. script.Parent (if your script's parent is really Server Script Service) is SSS. Use your remoteevent's name, as in the localscript: game.ServerScriptService.StarterEvents.Player.OnServerEvent ...
Change this one thing and it will work
