1script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(Hit)

4    if p.Value>= 2
5        then print("Yay")
6    end
7    end)
8end)

This script is attempting to check if a players "Buns" Value equals more then 2 or is equal to 2. There is no errors, but it does not function.

6end)

This script does error. the only thing removed though is PCALL.

21:25:02.248 - Workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.Frame.Blue Pen.Script:2: attempt to index local 'Hit' (a nil value) 21:25:02.248 - Stack Begin 21:25:02.249 - Script 'Workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.Frame.Blue Pen.Script', Line 2 21:25:02.249 - Stack End

((And yes, The Buns is set to 2.))

Surface Guis can not detect who has clicked them if they are in the workspace. To find out who clicked them, you must put the Surface Gui inside the StarterGui and Adornee it to the part in workspace. To do this, put a local script inside the Surface Gui and type,

view source
1script.Parent.Adornee = game.Workspace.Part --(or whatever your part name is)

Then inside your button, you can define a variable with game.Players.LocalPlayer and use it inside the MoudeButton1Click function as the player who clicked the button.
