Gui help?
This gives the player MANY guis when it's touched.
01 | local pad = script.Parent |
02 | local gui = game.ServerStorage.EditChar1 |
03 | local function steppedOn(part) |
04 | local character = part.Parent |
05 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character) |
06 | if player then |
07 | local guiCopy = game.ServerStorage.EditChar1:Clone() |
08 | guiCopy.Parent = player.PlayerGui |
09 |
10 | end |
11 | end |
12 | pad.Touched:connect(steppedOn) |
How could I reduce this to 1 without adding a wait because if I add a wait it would just add more after the wait.

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.

basically what i added to the code was everytime that someone steps on the part and tries to get the gui i checked to see if the player had the gui in their playerGui folder already. If the player didnt have it then we added it to them so it is only added once

So the gui's called "EditChar1". How would I incorporate this into the above script. the perimeters confuse me, I dont understand them TheScriptingAccount 90 — 9y

Yeah, I just added this to the script but it's adding it several times still. Not sure why. TheScriptingAccount 90 — 9y

sorry for the messed up tabbing but that would be the code that you could use ProfessorSev 220 — 9y
