quaint field Read the message text. I get this Error from those scripts: Players.BloxyColaHug...

Woahhhh

#

What tutorial is this?

#

@quaint field copy and paste line 66 of the localscript

#

Too lazy to count rn

Ah alr

#

Probably a typo

#

Show me the OreRemoved func

charred shoal Show me the OreRemoved func

_G.OreRemoved = function(pos)
    if pos then
        for _,pos2 in pairs(Positions) do
            local RawNewPos = pos+pos2
            local NewPos = Vector3.new((RawNewPos.X)/6,(RawNewPos.Y - 20000)/6,(RawNewPos.Z)/6)

this is in the server script service script

Is this a module script?

quaint field Sep 30, 2023, 5:16 AM

#

charred shoal Is this a module script?

no

charred shoal Sep 30, 2023, 5:16 AM

#

Wait the line 66 shit is a localscript

#

Right?

quaint field Sep 30, 2023, 5:17 AM

#

yes

charred shoal Sep 30, 2023, 5:17 AM

#

So how u getting the table

#

From here to there

#

The _G table

quaint field Sep 30, 2023, 5:17 AM

#

uhhhhhhhh

#

I kinda just got it from https://devforum.roblox.com/t/global-function/727088/4

Developer Forum | Roblox

Global function?

Global variables just don’t respect scope. A local variable will no longer exist once you exit the scope, whereas a global will. For example: do local x = 1 y = 2 end print(x, y) --> nil, 2 The same holds true for functions, since they’re just another value that a variable can hold.

#

asd

charred shoal Sep 30, 2023, 5:17 AM

#

Oh nvm

#

Alr

#

A default module script

#

Scripting Helpers

Is there any way I can get a client to read a _G variable?

is there any way I can get a client to read a _G variable? I only need it to read it! If not, whats like the easiest way to get it replicated? (FE on)

#

I think this is why

#

But maybe not idk

#

I don't really use _G

#

When you write to _G

#

It only stays on the side u write it

dang

charred shoal Sep 30, 2023, 5:22 AM

#

Either define it in local

#

Or use a rem event

#

If it needs to be on server

quaint field Sep 30, 2023, 5:24 AM

#

charred shoal Or use a rem event

wait is it possible to use a custom remoteevent to send variables as well
so like if there's like an remote event i would use thatt remote event to trigger the OreRemoved function and then also send the vector3 variable to that function

charred shoal Sep 30, 2023, 5:25 AM

#

That's just a normal remit event

#

U can send values with the remote event as function args

quaint field Sep 30, 2023, 5:26 AM

#

oh lol
i'm kinda new to scripting so i got a bit confused
