Roblox Remote Event Client To Server

Client server.

Roblox remote event client to server. Instead it will fire to all clients who have the same remote event connected to an onclientevent event. This is typically done using remote events although functions could be used if desired. Roblox does not support direct client to client contact so any communication must first go through the server. When the client receives the finished event from the server.

In the rare case of invoking a client from the server it should be done in a thread or an event. Clients countdown locally until 0 from that point but dont do anything special on their own when it reaches 0. Its better if youre not expecting a response from the server or the client. A remoteevent is designed for one way communication.

Only use a remotefunction to invoke the server from the client when a value is needed before resuming code execution on the client. Using remote events you can send information in the following ways. First the sending client would call fireserver. It can send a message to an individual client or it can send a message to every client at the same time.

Server to a single client. The server can send messages to the client through remote events in two ways. Sometimes a game will need to send information from one client to another. When the countdown is done server side the server sends another signal to all clients that the countdown completed.

On the server the function connected to onserverevent would hear this firing and itself would then call fireclient. This event is in place to provide a method for communicating between the client and server which is well documented in this article. To fire from the server to the client you should use remoteeventfireclient and remoteeventonclientevent. If youre scripting guns you can fire the server when you press down and fire it when you stop pressing down instead of firing the remote at every shot fired by doing that instead of firing it at every shot fired you.

Client to server in order for a client to send a message to the server it needs to fire the remoteevent with the function remoteeventfireserver in a localscript.
