What's a RemoteEvent?

[ancient topaz]

Recently while I was learning how to script and someone mentioned a RemoteEvent and didn't say anything about it I just would like to learn how to use a RemoteEvent

[nimble galleon]

did you try researching?

It’s a way to communicate from server -> client

Or

client -> server

There’s this thing called ”documentation”

RemoteEvents send signals from server to client and vice versa (uses :Fire[Server/Client] and .On[Server/Client]Event)
RemoteFunctions send signals but they have to send those signals to functions which return a value (uses :Invoke[Server/Client] and .On[Server/Client]Invoke)
UnreliableRemoteEvents can only send signals at a low amount of data (900 bytes) and I have no idea what circumstance this would need to be used someone help me

[nimble galleon]

a example is eyes laser, the server needs to know the pos of the mouse in the client and with a normal remote event that is kinda impossible

look up some examples

this is useful

[void zenith]

not for learning remote events, specifically that's for unreliable remote events

[nimble galleon]

I'm answering to this

[tawny snow]

why would it be impossible for normal remoteevent

[nimble galleon]

[tawny snow]

ohh cuz remotevents send more data they can lag more
