Is there a way to share variables across multiple scripts?

Without having to copy/paste them back into every script you need them in? -{E_

I've never messed with module scripts before today and the way i used it isn't working. I have a table and a few other variables defined in a module script, and requiring the module script like this in a local script: local myModule = require(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.ModuleScript) But when I try to use the table in the local script, output comes out as: 12:20:41.956 - Players.Player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.RACE.tbnHuman.LocalScript:5: bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) -{E_

You can't share variables between Scripts and LocalScripts.

You can, but then you need synchronization. ModuleScripts already work on LocalScripts. But they are two separate machines, and they still will not share variables.
