How can I display a GUI if a player is in my game for the first time?

Asked 198 views1 answers

I am working on a game, but all of the new players just skip reading the tutorial. It is in a text button. Here’s what I was thinking I could do.

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(player)
 if player.leaderstats.Wins.Value == 0 then
  game.StarterGui.WelcomeGUI.Frame.HelpFrame.Visible = true
    end
end)

For some reason this isn’t working. What do I do now?

You'll need to use data stores and the player joined event

Yeah. The StarterGui replicates EVERYTHING to the PlayerGui. So you should manipulate the PlayerGui, not the StarterGui. Put the localscript under the ScreenGui.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if player.leaderstats.Wins.Value >= 1 then --You set the thing to 0. Set to greater than or equal to 1.
		script.Parent.Frame.HelpFrame.Visible = true
	end
end)
