GUI not being placed inside the player's PlayerGui. How do I fix this?
I did this really simple script that gets all the players and places the script's parent inside the players own PlayerGui, but nothing is happening. The output is not speaking and I've tried using wait() because I thought the script probably was executing before any players joined the game. Heres the script:
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local pc = Players:GetPlayers()
for i,v in pairs(pc)do
script.Parent.Parent:Clone().Parent = v.PlayerGui
end

I thought gui's were automatically given to players when GUI's are placed in StarterGui bittersweetfate 142 — 4y

What I was trying to say is that I want to give the GUI to all the players without using StarterGui. Prxticles 13 — 4y

use :GetPlayers() instead of GetChildren() but maybe u should try like a 5 seconds wait to see if the script is executing before a player joins HappyTimIsHim 652 — 4y

Looks like where I placed the script and the GUI somehow stopped the script? I originally placed it in ServerStorage, and that somehow caused a reaction to the script and GUI. After I placed it in Workspace, and made the GUI inside of the script, and not the script inside the GUI, it proceeded to work. I don't know why ServerStorage caused this, but I'm glad I fixed the problem

ServerStorage hides its children in the game. Developers use ServerStorage to set aside things until they are needed. AntiWorldliness 868 — 4y
