How do i script it to

[sick totem]

how do i script it to pick up a apple but the apple stays there for other people

[celest moat]

pick it up client side

[vital saddle]

use a click detector or proximity prompt on the apple on the ground. Then give them a tool that’s just an apple. Should be done server side imo

[fast ether]

????

what should be done server-sided?

[static pecan]

they want the apple to stay where it is..?
proxprompts and click detectors should be clientside, at the very most you can clone the apple and hand it to the players backpack server-side but that's about it

[queen wagon]

What is 'it'
What is 'apple'
What do you mean by pick up? Touch --> you have a tool in your backpack, or a picking up animation?

[ebon sequoia]

localscript

[celest moat]

he wants to do it so its only picked up for one person, so client side

he doesnt want it for everyone

[vital saddle]

exactly, but you shouldn't be giving a tool client side

The apples on the ground have to stay there for everyone, if he'd like to remove the apple on the ground for only the player who picked it up, yes handle that on the client as well.

[celest moat]

couldnt he just fire an event to give the tool server side anyway

[vital saddle]

Yeah it is as simple as that but I'm thinking protection so the player can't pick up an apple they've already picked up, if you don't care for that it could be almost entirely client sided

[celest moat]

it should be fine to do client side apart from the tools

[vital saddle]

Yeah, I'd use an RF personally so it is easier to communicate back and fourth. Like if you wanted to add an UI that said you picked up an item.. use an RF instead

If you literally only want an apple to be picked up and deleted client side just use RE

[celest moat]

it could still be done purely with a remote but your idea is valid

[vital saddle]

The reason I don't personally use remotes as much when I need to send info back to the server is how long they get

Unless they only have one use you need an "Event" paramater as well as how ever other many parameters, with a RF you just do ;

local IsValid = RF:InvokeServer("IsValid")
image.Visible = IsValid

Well you still need a event parameter nvm lol

[celest moat]

Ah makes sense

never used RC

RF

so RF:InvokeClient

etc?

[vital saddle]

Very handy for keeping scripts readable imo

[vital saddle]

Let me login to studio to show you but yes, its main difference is how you use it on server

Same in how you invoke

[celest moat]

ill look into them, seem useful against remotes

[celest moat]

ah makes sense

[vital saddle]

Also if you invoke client it also sends info to server but isn't required. For me I have more use in using a RF on this system than an RE and I didn't want two (You should note not to be using InvokeClient unless you are only sending them to "trusted" users, otherwise exploiters will probably mess w it)

Didn't have it set up on my current script system so I had to find an old example, this is what it looks like to setup an RF on server side

thats what i said!

destroy the apple clientside

BUT

give the tool to the player serverside
