GUI not closing after certain amount of time?

Asked 214 views1 answers

I am trying to make my GUI close after a certain amount of time but it's not working. Here is my code so far.

wait(3)
game.StarterGui.ScreenGui:destroy()

I have it in the StarterGui and the script is parented to the ScreenGUI inside the StarterGui.

Can you give me a screenshot of your Studio Explorer, the problem is, you're calling on StarterGui not PlayerGui

The simple problem here is that you're attempting to call on the StarterGui, which once a game is played, it no longer has access to. Also you're using a regular script, when you should be using a LocalScript. Here is the code to use inside of a LocalScript.

wait(3) -- Wait 3 seconds
script.Parent.Frame:Destroy() -- Destroy the Frame that is being held in ScreenGui.
