(UIButton.MouseButton1Click) Event Server-side

[blissful mantle]

Aparently MouseButton1Click can be listened to by server scripts , and so i wana know, are there drawbacks to using it? if not then i would use that instead of sticking to using remotes.

only possible issue i see is some other player being able to fire that event through scripting

which idk if they could

depends what you mean

and also i dont see how this could help you achieve whatever given that, if you just handle the event + logic in one serverscript under a client based repo

thats bad practice

unlesss its a tool but even then

is it

if it isnt then ill just use it

since its a simpler aproach

Doing things like that can leave things vulnerable to exploits, aswell if you do things on the client it reduces the load on the server, so when you click a button on the client, it doesnt have to replicate it across all clients like it would if it were on the server

i thought player ui doesnt get exposed to other players

and listening to a click event or to a remote event doesnt seem too different server load wise

aparently there are no actual drawbacks but it removes the need of one extra remote event
