When firing a RemoteEvent, can you make the original script WAIT until the event is finished?

Use a remote function

it waits for a value to be returned

[dawn quiver]

could you give me an example of how one would call the function? what I'm doing is this:

local enemyTurn = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("EnemyTurn")

if enemyTurn then
  enemyTurn:FireServer()
end                ```

@marsh roost Sorry for the ping, could you tell me how I'd format the code for this differently?

[marsh roost]

oke

wait

This is a pretty jank way to use it but here:

--Local script
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteFunction = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("RemoteFunction")



print("Start")

remoteFunction:InvokeServer()

print("End")
--Will take 3 seconds

--Server script
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local remoteFunction = ReplicatedStorage.RemoteFunction


remoteFunction.OnServerInvoke = function(player)
    task.wait(3)
end

[dawn quiver]

so instead of EventName:FireServer(), it is EventName:InvokeServer()?

[marsh roost]

yes and change the connection

remoteFunction.OnServerInvoke = function(player)

end

kk, thank you!

hey again, I'm a little stuck, I think..? I've copied everything down, but it's not properly firing the server. I'm getting an error regarding using "player" as a parameter
