if you're not worried about exploiters, you could literally just do it all client-side
#How to send an Argument across Client/Server?
silver bane
client has network ownership of their character anyway, so even if someone DOES exploit, you'll have to detect it on the server. client can always teleport their character, im pretty sure
otherwise, i'd do it like:
client connect proximityprompt -> open gui locally -> connects gui buttons to quick-travel event -> tells the server they want to go to a certain place or whatever
not sure what your step 5 means

I was going to set the custom argument to a predetermined part on the map, that would've been the argument I sent across
I made a cutscene attached to the whole thing with a clone dummy so i wasn't sure
silver bane
an argument that the client sends to the server?
glad urchin
yeah, the gui script would've fired the event to start the whole thing with a custom argument, that being the part it was connected to
glad urchin
nah it's already gonna be there
silver bane
should be fine then
glad urchin
ok so how would i do all that then, I'm setting a local script of that rn and I'd have to connect a prox prompt trigger to a function and check if it's the right function, right?
silver bane
use a RemoteEvent?
glad urchin
use a RemoteEvent?
yeah that's what I tried before but you said I don't need to do all that
silver bane
nono, when i said 'tell the server' i mean by using a remoteevent
glad urchin
the problem I had before was that when I connected the button being activated to the first function, it would start when I join the game even though I didn't click it
glad urchin
nono, when i said 'tell the server' i mean by using a remoteevent
ohh gotchu

RemoteEvents aref or client server comms
glad urchin
when I put two separate scripts, one for the gui and one for the core part of it, but that's when I had the problem where I needed to send the argument across scripts
