Can't get my RemoveEvent to work? any tips?

Asked Jul 14, 2019273 views2 answers

FIXED. When i F9'ed for the log. I forgot to check the Server-Log... It's all working

Howdy!

So, i'm working on a script that fires a RemoteEvent in ReplicatedStorage. It's fired from a LocalScript in a PlayerGui.

It fires the remote like this

RemotePlace1 = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemotePlace1
RemotePlace1:FireServer()

The Receiverscript is stored in ServerScriptService

That script is this:

OurEvent = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemotePlace1


OurEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function()
	print("OOF")
end)

But, i don't get it to work :-/

Anyone in here who can tell me what i'm doing wrong?

Howdyy! Since I see nothing else wrong with it, then the problem must be in getting the signal on the button, If the LocalScript is inside the button, then is it

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
RemoteEvent:FireServer()
end)

Could you please elaborate about the location of the LocalScript?

Why is the localscript placed in PlayerGui? If you would tell me the exact location of it then I'll be able to help

It's in LocalScript because it has to register when the person hits a GuiButton. Once pressed it should register is by fireing the event. It saves the data server-wide (for a little experiment)/ it's placed in PlayerGui. script.Parent(Button).Parent(Frame).Parent(ScreenGui).Parent(StarterGui)

It didn't work :-/

change the name of the remotevent into something without any capitals, and without any numbers. try that

I only have two ideas to make it work.

1: You might've forgotten to actually create the remoteEvent

2: You should try placing the server-side script inside your workspace
