Why is this script taking two clicks to activate instead of one?

Asked 302 views1 answers

If it didn't have the Gui part it would work fine but with it it takes two clicks to activate it for some reason, I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong.

function onClicked()
	script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function(playerWhoClicked)
	local gui = playerWhoClicked:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui")
	gui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Text = ("stuff")
	print("other script stuff here")
	end)
end

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClicked)

You're using the same event twice. You only need one MouseClick event.

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(playerWhoClicked)
	local gui = playerWhoClicked:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui")
	gui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Text = ("stuff")
	print("other script stuff here")
end)

Remember, if FilteringEnabled is enabled, server sided scripts can't access things in the PlayerGui that the server didn't create.

Good Luck!
