Why doesn't this script work?
It's supposed to make the player change teams and hide a team selection GUI while doing so.
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false
player.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("Br. yellowish orange")
player:LoadCharacter()
end)
It changes teams, but doesn't hide the GUI.

Did you verify that 'script.Parent.Parent' points to the GUI that you want to set invisible? One way you could check this is to give the GUI a name, add a debug print:
print(script.Parent.Parent)
And see that the name matches what is printed when the script runs.
On a side note, assuming you are running this as a LocalScript, see the notes for LoadCharacter:
- "This item should be used in a Script to work as expected online. "

Indeed it does. An interesting thing to note is that the visibility portion will work fine by itself but doesn't work when included with the team changing part. Green_Lemon 5 — 8y

Actually, after testing this, if this GUI is by default visible, then respawning will clone a new GUI IPsec 35 — 8y

Unselecting "ResetPlayerGuiOnSpawn" in the StarterGui properties worked. Thanks. <3 Green_Lemon 5 — 8y

I'm not sure that you can use LoadCharacter() in a local script
