I need to find the player after a textbutton in a surfacegui is clicked on, but I don't know how to retrieve the player, unlike a textbutton in a screengui. How can I do this?

This is actually pretty simple. All you have to do is put the SurfaceGui inside StarterGui then use a LocalScript to get game.Players.LocalPlayer then Adornee it to the part with this: script.Parent.Parent.Adornee = game.Workspace.Part (Hopefully you should know how to edit it. Change Part to wherever the Part is located in Workspace, and change script.Parent.Parent to wherver the SurfaceGui is, NOT the button.)

Hope this helped and make sure +1 and accept if this worked. If it didnt then please reply and I will answer any questions you need answered.

EXAMPLE I USED:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.Parent.Adornee = game.Workspace.VIPRoom.Frame.Picture
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(function(skip)
    player.leaderstats.Level.Value = 10
    player.Character.Humanoid.Health = 0
end)

EDIT

Family Tree:

game
    Workspace
        VIPRoom
            Frame
                Picture
    StarterGui
        SkipGui
            Button
                LocalScript

The above is just a bit more just incase you get confused.
