I'm trying to spawn stuff from a folder in ReplicatedStorage and have it go to workspace?
Alright so, I'm trying to make it so I can spawn stuff from a folder in ReplicatedStorage to Workspace but only if it doesn't find the model I want to spawn in. I am fairly new to this scripting thing so I might have some issues. It would be spawned and despawned through a GUI TextButton. The function i'm using is called SpawnFunction. Script inside the ServerScriptStorage [Typical Script]
ReplicatedStorage = game.ReplicatedStorage
workspace = game.Workspace -- This is just extra insurance
--Made By MillerrIAm
---------------------------
--Start Script
--Main Script
if player,spawn true then
workspace:GetChildren(spawn) then
workspace:(spawn):Destroy()
else
ReplicatedStorage.Stipulation:Clone(spawn).Parent = workspace
end
Script inside the GUI Button [Local Script]
--Made By MillerrIAm
---------------------------
--Start Script
--Main Script
function onClick()
game.ReplicatedStorage.SpawnFunction:InvokeServer("SpawnMe!") --Ignore the name, that's just what i named the model.
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(onClick)
print("GUIButton Working")

For starters, you don't need to reference the workspace hardly ever in a variable. The global workspace is the quickest and best way to access the workspace.
Anyway, you want to say "The client wants a map from clicking this button, and the server wants to clone it into the workspace" right?
So first, you'd insert a local script into your text button. Then you'd store the replicated storage and a remote event in some variables.
--Client
--local script inside button
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local button = script.Parent
local function onClick()
remoteEvent:FireServer()
end
button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(onClick)
--Server
--server script
local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteEvent = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteEvent")
local debounce = false
local function addMaps()
if not debounce then
debounce = true
local map = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Map"):Clone() --Clone the map (should be a model)
map.Parent = workspace --parent to workspace
else
workspace:FindFirstChild("Map"):Destroy() --say you wanted to delete it if you pressed again
debounce = false
end
end
remoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(addMaps)
90% sure this is a troll question but maybe you'll learn something. Have at it.
