I'm trying to make a textlabel visible to all players in the game, after a player has clicked a certain part. The event is being picked up but seems like i messed up the code for what needs to happen.


local HintTest = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("HintTest")

debounce = false

HintTest.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
	if debounce == false then
	debounce = true	
	
	print("I was clicked")
	game.ReplicatedStorage.BrickClicked:FireServer()
	wait(3)
	debounce = false
	end
end)

local script^^^^

This code should fix it, make sure you use :FireAllClient to fire for every client

-- Script
 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
 
local newPlayerEvent = Instance.new("RemoteEvent")
newPlayerEvent.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage
newPlayerEvent.Name = "NewPlayer"
 
game.ReplicatedStorage.BrickClicked.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    print("Event picked up")
    local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").NAMEOFTHEGUI
    for _, player in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
        gui.TextLabel.Text = tostring(" Host:"..player.Name.."!!")
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false


end

local function onPlayerAdded(player)
	newPlayerEvent:FireAllClients()
end
 
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
 
 
-- =======================================

Local script


 
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
 
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local newPlayerEvent = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("NewPlayerEvent")
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
 

 
local function onNewPlayerFired()
    print("Event picked up")
    local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").NAMEOFTHEGUI
    for _, player in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do
        gui.TextLabel.Text = tostring(" Host:"..player.Name.."!!")
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true
        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false


end

	print( "It's working")
end
 
newPlayerEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(onNewPlayerFired)

        wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = false
  	wait(.5)
        gui.TextLabel.Visible = true -- I added this, so when the animation thing is done it will show the TextLabel
end

The problem was you had 2 variables called player I just changed one of the name

there is no animation and your add only keeps the gui on the player's screen. completely unrelated
