How do I prevent GUI from showing again?

Hello helpers, I've got a question, I've got an Intro GUI, but whenever you die the GUI shows up again, the close button has the following script:

function CloseGui()
    script.Parent.Parent.Visible = False
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(CloseGui)

I use visible instead because this won't do anything:

function CloseGui()
    script.Parent.Parent:Destroy()
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(CloseGui)

Pls help it's annoying to have the into GUI all the time

Script is inside a button, which is inside a frame, inside a screen GUI, inside the starter GUI.

I wouldn't use csmz's method, because you might want some GUI's to show after death, but not the intro GUI. You could simply use a bool variable or value that is enabled whenever you are done watching the intro, and then if the bool is true, it won't work.

local shown = false

You didn't give me the function that opens the GUI, but make it check for shown.

if (not shown == true) then
    -- code
    shown = true
end

this method is very insufficient, because with ResetPlayerGuiOnSpawn on, if the script said the shown variable was true, it would show up every time. ObscureIllusion 352 — 8y

In the explorer, click on StarterGui, and in its properties youll see "ResetPlayerGuiOnSpawn" uncheck that, and you should be good to go!
