Try
FireAllClients instead of fire server?

pulsar dome Mar 25, 2023, 6:26 AM

#

Well, I have to go bye for now

fathom finch Mar 25, 2023, 6:27 AM

#

Add a server script fire all clients

like
--server script
soundEvent.onServerEvent: Connect (function()
SoudEvent:FireAllClient()
end)

#

Because fire server fires to server not clients

pulsar dome Mar 25, 2023, 6:30 AM

#

It wasn't firing it

#

bruh Now I feel stupid

#

@wicked zephyr

fathom finch Mar 25, 2023, 6:31 AM

#

Fire server
Server receive it
Server fire all clients

wicked zephyr Mar 25, 2023, 6:33 AM

#

fathom finch Add a server script fire all clients like --server script soundEvent.onServerE...

now thats a bad example

It's easier on mobile because you can just use the microphone wtf
