PlayerAdded is not a valid member of DataModel. can someone help?
so i was making an overhead GUI script and it says that PlayerAdded isnt a valid member of datamodel. can someone help? here is the code
1 | local rank = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").BillboardGui |
2 |
3 | game.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) |
4 | repeat wait() until plr.CharacterAdded |
5 | local c = rank:Clone() |
6 | c.OverheadText.Text = "Adventurer" |
7 | c.Parent = workspace:FindFirstChild(plr.Name).Head |
8 | end) |

PlayerAdded is an RBXScriptSignal of the Players Service: game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded. Ziffixture 6913 — 4y

it kinda works now, but the overhead gui shows on a character i inserted through the MoonAnimator plugin, is there anything i could do? YandH015 9 — 4y

ummm that must be a bug bcs its getting the service of players and then saying when a players added run your script so unless the character you inserted is in Players then im not sure it might be bcs of repeat wait() until plr.CharacterAdded that might be bugged and literally getting every single character in the game?

01 | --Inside a server script |
02 |
03 | local rank = game.ReplicatedStorage:FindFirstChild("BillboardGui") -- Define BBGui |
04 | game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) -- PlayerAdded is an RBXScriptSignal called from game.Players. game.PlayerAdded isn't correct. |
05 | player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character) -- Wait for players character so the gui will be inserted back after they die |
06 | if rank ~= nil then |
07 | local c = rank:Clone() |
08 | c.Parent = character.Head |
09 | c.Adornee = character.Head -- You must set the adornee of a BillBoardGui. Adornee is what part the Gui is displayed on. You can parent the gui in workspace and adornee it to a players head and it will still work. |
10 | end |
11 | end) |
12 | end) |
13 | --This will get every player that joins the server, waits for each time the players character spawns, and then creates a new gui for that players head. |
