My GUI won't work?
I wrote the code for a GUI and it worked flawlessly in Studio but not in Test/Play mode.
I figured out the problem is the first bit of code: local p = game.Players.Player1.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PlayerLoadout
But I don't know how to make it accessible to all players instead of just Player1. Help?

Assuming this is in a LocalScript, the LocalPlayer property of Players will work for you:
local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PlayerLoadout
Otherwise, you'll have to use the PlayerAdded event to make this run for each any every Player:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
local p = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui"):WaitForChild("PlayerLoadout")
end)

Neither of the above methods work. I'm getting:Players.Player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.MainMenu.Loadout.Loadout:7: attempt to index global 'p' (a nil value) shadownova62 5 — 9y

Sorry for the delayed response. What is the exact error you're getting? (You should be using game.Players.LocalPlayer, *not* game.Players.Player)) adark 5487 — 9y

Please provide explanation with your answers. Simply posting code does not spread knowledge of integral scripting processes which helps people understand the logic and reasoning behind your answer.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player) local p = player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui"):WaitForChild("PlayerLoadout") end)
local p = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.PlayerLoadout
function onButtonClicked()
script.Parent.Parent:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.025, 0 , 1, 0))
wait(0.5)
p.Visible = true
wait(0.2)
p:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0, 0, 0.84, 0))
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onButtonClicked)
