How Can I Make The TextLabel Say the Same Thing For all Players?

Asked 249 views2 answers
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(player)
	for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
		

local randomVars = {"This One As Well", "Oof", "This One Too", "This one",  }
local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)] -- picking a random variable from the table
	print(randomVar)
		v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.TextLabel.Text = (randomVar)
		end
	
		end)

For the example above, I made up a random table. But what I want is for the text label to say the same thing for all the players in the server. With the above code, everyone's text changes, but its all different and random, which I know why, I just do not how to make it all the same.

fire the local script into a server script using RemoteEvents or RemoteFunctions

for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
-- this would make it so it rerolls the variable for every player.
end


-- instead of that you could do

-- get the one text you want all of the players to see
local randomVars = {"This One As Well", "Oof", "This One Too", "This one",  }
local randomVar = randomVars[math.random(#randomVars)]

-- now loop through all the players and change their text
for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
	v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.TextLabel.Text = (randomVar)
end

another option could be event:FireAllClients(randomVar)

Do make sure to elaborate the answer when you're well-rested!
