Remote Events

[little kestrel]

I am firing a remote event in a local script, which links to a server script that uses a module script upon receiving the event.

Is there a way to skip the middle part, i'll send screenshots to explain

[glass ridge]

u kinda can

if u require the module at the beggining of the script

u can put the OnserverRemote on the module

it would work fine

I think u can

cus I use Players.PlayerAdded in there

works fine

I usually just require the module

to save time

[little kestrel]

It looks really messy, is it better if I just scrap the module script

[little kestrel]

Hold on^

[glass ridge]

I believe it does work

if the module is on the server ofc

[little kestrel]

Yeah

[rich lark]

So you want a Local -> Module remote event?

[little kestrel]

Yeah

[rich lark]

You can surely do that if the Module is required already by another script

[glass ridge]

yea

[little kestrel]

Alright hold on let me try this

Is there a way to just call a function in the module script from a client but have it run on the server?

Like

Client:

Module.Function(A,B)

Module Script:

Module.Function = function(A,B)
--> Runs on the server

or do i have to use remote events

[glass ridge]

u gotta use remotes

[little kestrel]

Aight

My script is in replicatedstorage

and it says i cant only use onserverevent on the server

is that because its in replicated storage

or because its a module script

[rich lark]

Is your module on ReplicatedStorage?

[little kestrel]

and if its because its in replicated storage i'll just forget it for now

[rich lark]

If it is, its more likely only made it be used By LocalSCripts

😭

[little kestrel]

because it will take ages to change all the scripts that require modules

[rich lark]

??

[little kestrel]

So it SHOULD be in the server right

[rich lark]

if thats what u wanna do then go ahead

but the difference is, Modules can either be by Client Only or Server Only

From what i know so far

[rich lark]

If a Server Script is using it, Yes.

[little kestrel]

Well i mean originally it worked regardless

My module creates hitboxes when the functions are called on a server script

[rich lark]

Wait show me the error

im confused by this

😭

[little kestrel]

And here is the line i replaced

[rich lark]

Place it on ServerScriptService

and require it through there

[little kestrel]

Thats what I was trying to avoid, it looks messy

but if its required to do then i don't mind

[rich lark]

Then organize it..?

[little kestrel]

Wait

[rich lark]

Literally use Folders for it 😭

[little kestrel]

its just a long line of this

I check the input on the client

I fire a remote event if something needs to be done on the server

[rich lark]

Is this in the module?

[little kestrel]

and then i connect the module

No

A seperate server script

[rich lark]

oh ok

ok ok ok

[little kestrel]

If there is nothing i can do its fine

[rich lark]

so just place it in the serverscriptservice

[little kestrel]

it works#

[rich lark]

then change the variable to require it to where the module is now located

[little kestrel]

Alright

[rich lark]

Cause if your using Server only Stuffs e..g; OnServerEvent

[little kestrel]

Honestly i don't know if there is a point of keeping all this stuff in a module script anymore but i might as well

[rich lark]

whilist its in a ClientOnly path or only clients can use

Like ReplicatedStorage ( i think when placing a module there its only for clients )

then it wont work

[little kestrel]

aight

ty

[rich lark]

Np!

nevermind, ReplicatedStorage can be required via server or clients

but your using server only functions
