GUI Removal when Dev Product purchased?

Asked 29 views1 answers

In my game I have a GUI instead of using the paid access in the games access settings, because it makes access cheaper...

I've got 2 buttons, 1 for tix and 1 for robux, and Im trying to make it so when they buy one of the two Dev Products the GUI gets removed and they can see. (The GUI takes up all of the screen)

INFO: My GUI is like this: ScreenGui(named Entry) in starter GUI. And inside this I have my 2 buttons named Purchase with a local script in... The transactions work, I've tested it on an alt, its just the GUI dosent get removed... Heres my script:

local developerProduct = 22199999  -- Product id


game:GetService("MarketplaceService").ProcessReceipt = function(receipt)
    if receipt.ProductId == developerProduct then 
        for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do 
            if v.userId == receipt.PlayerId then
	                v.game.StarterGui.Entry.Background.Visible = false
                end
            end
        end
    end

Ps: I know Dev Products are a one time thing.... I also got some of this code from other questions, I've just modified it a little to suit what I need it for.

I have 2 of these scrips, one for each button, and they're both in ServerScriptService

Your problem is that you're attempting to index the Gui by;

v.game.StarterGui.Entry

if v is the player, does it make much sense that the game would be inside the player? When a player joins, everytime their character loads the guis from StarterGui get Cloned into their PlayerGui. You can access your entry gui in the player's PlayerGui;

v.PlayerGui.Entry

Also, make sure you're returning that the purchase has been granted. You can do this by returning 'Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.PurchaseGranted'. If you neglect to do this you will not earn any money from the developer product.

So, to fix your script;

local developerProduct = 22199999


game:GetService("MarketplaceService").ProcessReceipt = function(receipt)
	if receipt.ProductId == developerProduct then 
		for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do 
			if v.userId == receipt.PlayerId then
				v.PlayerGui.Entry.Background.Visible = false
			end
		end
	end
	return Enum.ProductPurchaseDecision.PurchaseGranted
end

One question. Is it possible to somehow have a list of players that this GUI dosent come up for?? I'm trying to test things but dont want to pay to see what Im doing in my own game, But if people follow me they will see whats behind the GUI for free ..

You mean like next time they join to not have to prompt them with this again? You'd have to use datastores to log the players that have bought the Developer Product. You can PM me about this if you want, I love DataStores(:
