How can I check if a player has already clicked a button before?
Is it possible to check if a player has already clicked a button? Like if a player has already went through the Surface GUI and got something and then when they click it again they wouldn't be able to.

On a Surface GUI you carnt find the player, there are a lot of question on this forum relating to this. You might be able to do somthing localy with FE enabled http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Local_parts User#5423 17 — 8y

You could insert a BoolValue into the player (or the SurfaceGui but I'm not sure if this is a good idea) to check if the button has been clicked before. http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/BoolValue

The best way to do this would be to place the surfacegui into StarterGui. That way, you can track which player clicked it. An example:
LocalScript inside surfacegui:
1 | script.Parent.Adornee = workspace.GuiPartExample |
Then, to check if the player has already clicked it, you can insert a value into the player! Example inside a localscript:
1 | local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | script.Parent.Button.MouseButton1Down:connect(function() |
3 | if not plr:FindFirstChild('ClickedButton') then |
4 | -- do stuff |
5 | local value = Instance.new('BoolValue',plr) |
6 | value.Name = 'ClickedButton' |
7 | end) |

The LocalScript doesn't make anything visible that's the problem. BennyBoiOriginal 293 — 8y

If you want, I could create an example place? DevNetx 250 — 8y
