I was wondering how to make a gui dissapear after it's clicked and when the character respawns it would reapear. Here is my script just to see if you coulda find something wrong. I tried game.StarterGui.Swordsmangiver.Disabled but it did not not work. if you could help me that would be greatly appreciated.

01-- creating a screen gui
02local screenGui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
03screenGui.Parent = script.Parent
04 
05--make a text button
06local textButton = Instance.new ("TextButton")
07textButton.Parent = screenGui
08textButton.Position = UDim2.new(0,50,0,150)
09textButton.Size = UDim2.new(0,140,0,60)
10textButton.TextColor3 = BrickColor.White().Color
11textButton.Style = 3
12textButton.Text = "Swordsman"
13 
14--Bind function to button click
15textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
16p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
17sword = game.ReplicatedStorage.ChristmasTreeSword:clone()--Weapon name
18shield = game.ReplicatedStorage.Shield:clone()
19if p.Backpack:FindFirstChild(sword.Name)~= nil then return end
20if p.Backpack:FindFirstChild(shield.Name)~= nil then return end
21p.Backpack:ClearAllChildren()
22sword.Parent = p.Backpack
23shield.Parent = p.Backpack
24p.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 18
25end)

Things to consider: This is a localscript inside the StarterGui. The script works and everything but i don't know how to disable after click and renable after death.

Turn off the visibility, it'll reactivate automatically if it's in startergui. Goulstem 8144 — 10y

Assuming you want it do disable after clicking the textButton:

01-- creating a screen gui
02local screenGui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
03screenGui.Parent = script.Parent
04 
05--make a text button
06local textButton = Instance.new ("TextButton")
07textButton.Parent = screenGui
08textButton.Position = UDim2.new(0,50,0,150)
09textButton.Size = UDim2.new(0,140,0,60)
10textButton.TextColor3 = BrickColor.White().Color
11textButton.Style = 3
12textButton.Text = "Swordsman"
13 
14--Bind function to button click
15textButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
16p = game.Players.LocalPlayer
17sword = game.ReplicatedStorage.ChristmasTreeSword:clone()--Weapon name
18shield = game.ReplicatedStorage.Shield:clone()
19if p.Backpack:FindFirstChild(sword.Name)~= nil then return end
20if p.Backpack:FindFirstChild(shield.Name)~= nil then return end
21p.Backpack:ClearAllChildren()
22sword.Parent = p.Backpack
23shield.Parent = p.Backpack
24p.Character.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 18

26screenGui:Destroy()

Let me explain this. When the player spawns, the things from StarterGui clone into his PlayerGui. When I destroy the screenGui, I only destroy it from the PlayerGui, not the StarterGui (Where it gets cloned from). This means that when the player spawns again, the Gui can be used like normal.

Ok You've helped me see how this works now so ive named all my gui's now. lets say this one is screenGui1. How would i also destroy screenGui2,screenGui3,and screenGui4 all in this same script? gigabite176 20 — 10y

You can just simply do: screenGui1:Destroy() screenGui2:Destroy() screenGui3:Destroy() screenGui4:Destroy() .. Vlatkovski 320 — 10y
