I attempt to change line 53 and line 40's colors.

Color remains white after changing the color. kjduck 0 — 4y

I assume there's a reason why your script is like this. So, I will just edit some things.

Instead of using Color3.new, use Color3.fromRGB (red, green, blue)

0116  function HandleCharacter(Player, Character)
0217   local Custom = Character:WaitForChild('Head'):clone()
0318   Custom.Name = 'TastiesOverhead'
0419   Custom.Parent = Character
0520   Custom.face:Destroy()
0621   Character.Head.Transparency = 1
0722   Create'Weld'{
0823    Name = 'CustomWeld';
0924    Parent = Custom;
1025    Part0 = Character.Head;
1126    Part1 = Custom;
1227   }
1328   Create'BillboardGui'{
1429    Name = 'Nametag';
1530    Parent = Custom;
1631    Size = UDim2.new(5, 0, 0.5, 0);
1732    StudsOffset = Vector3.new(0, 2, 0);
1833    Create'TextLabel'{
1934     Name = 'NameLabel';
2035     BackgroundTransparency = 1;
2136     Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0);
2237     Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, -0.8, 0);
2338     Font = 'ArialBold';
2439     Text = Character.Name;
2540     TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(0, 255, 0); -- green
2641     TextScaled = true;
2742     TextStrokeTransparency = 1;
2843    };
2944    Create'TextLabel'{
3045     Name = 'RankLabel';
3146     BackgroundTransparency = 1;
3247     Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 0.92, 0);
3348     Position = UDim2.new(0, 0, 0.2, 0);
3449     TextTransparency = .1;
3550     Font = 'SourceSansItalic';
3651     FontSize = Enum.FontSize.Size14;
3752     Text = Player:GetRoleInGroup(4915753);
3853     TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0); -- red
3954     TextScaled = true;
4055     TextStrokeTransparency = 1;

Remember to remove the numbers.

This should be the accepted answer. User#834 0 — 4y

Sorry if this isn't the answer you are looking for. I hope it helps though.

The issue here is stated but I don't have enough info to understand. If the text color is already white (I believe 1, 1, 1 is white) then it won't seem to change.

Also is create a function? It seems to be a bilboard gui. If you want to set a property use object.PropertyName = value. If you want to go down the hierarchy then do a similar thing, Object.ObjectName.

If you are creating something use Instance.new(objectName, parent)

So Mr.Duck, to make a color changing brick or GUI I guess, Here is the code

1local TextButton = game.Workspace.TextButton
2 
3TextButton.BackgroundColor = BackgroundColor.New = (''Really Red'')
