Server triggers empty table to Client

[Et-win]

Hello,

As you look to the title you know my question.

Client:

function requestServerMaps() 
    triggerServerEvent("clientrequestservermaps", getLocalPlayer()) 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("testen", requestServerMaps) 
  
function nowdooutput(themaps) 
    for l, k in ipairs(themaps) do 
        outputChatBox(tostring(k)) 
    end 
    outputChatBox(tostring(themaps)) 
    outputChatBox(tostring(themaps[1])) 
end 
  
addEvent("sendbackservermaps", true) 
addEventHandler("sendbackservermaps", getRootElement(), nowdooutput) 

Server:

function getservermapsnow() 
    themaps = exports.mapmanager:getMapsCompatibleWithGamemode(getResourceFromName("race")) 
    for l, k in ipairs(themaps) do 
        outputChatBox(tostring(k)) 
    end 
    triggerClientEvent(source, "sendbackservermaps", getRootElement(), themaps) 
end 
  
addEvent("clientrequestservermaps", true) 
addEventHandler("clientrequestservermaps", getRootElement(), getservermapsnow) 

(Script fastly made for testing, so sorry if it's a bit messy )

If I output it with "ipairs" in serverside, it does return every map that is on the server. If I do the same on clientside, the table is suddently empty. It DOES return the table, but still, it's empty.

My question now is: How it can be empty? I remade a simple function (This one here above) to check or it was my first function's fault, but nope, my official function and this function both do the same.

PS: I did try to trigger "lol = {"Hai", "Naab"}" towards client, this was successful.

Probably because the resource element can't be send of to clients.

You should only send the names.

function getservermapsnow() 
    local raceResource = getResourceFromName("race") 
    if raceResource then 
        local themaps = exports.mapmanager:getMapsCompatibleWithGamemode(raceResource)   
        if themaps then 
            local mapNames = {} 
            for i=1,#themaps do 
                local name = getResourceName(themaps[i]) 
                if name then 
                    mapNames[#mapNames+1]= name 
                end 
            end 
            if #mapNames > 0 then 
                triggerClientEvent(source, "sendbackservermaps", root, mapNames) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
end 
  
addEvent("clientrequestservermaps", true) 
addEventHandler("clientrequestservermaps", root, getservermapsnow)

Hello and thank you for the reply. Indeed this was the solution. I just totally forgot to only trigger the names, normally I did this before, but now I just forgot it.
