for some reason i cannot get this module to work (its named MainModule) module code: function thegame() end local memezzs = require(0) memezzs() function thegame() --the code that is supposed to be here is way too big for the forums and i'm positive it runs without error end function memes() thegame() end return memes require code: local memezzs = require(0) memezzs() what am i doing wrong

Not certain but require code has to go on the top?

the require is requesting an asset id (which im too lazy to put there) just the module does nothing

its your module code. put this at the top of the module script: local moduleName = {}

i forgot one thing. for every function you make in a module script, you are suppose to put the name of the module variable before the function name. all you need to do is this: local moduleName = {} function moduleName.functionName() end return moduleName

uh oh, i seem to have forgot yet another thing. your require statement is wrong too. the require function takes one argument, which is where the module script is. for example, the workspace or a tool. here is the correct way: local memezzs = require(workspace.memezzsModule) and if you ever need to call functions from the module, here is how you do it: memezzs.functionName()
