How do I target a player in a script and change the variable used depending on the team?

Hello!

I tried adjusting a script that I found to fit my needs, but I don't know how to make it work. I'd like to make it so, depending on the players team, the different ID would be used.

For example, if the player is on the Bright yellow team, he'd have the "clothingstoreid" used and displayed above his head, but if he's on the Bright blue team, he'd have the "officeid" id used.

How would I do this? The place is filtering enabled.

Thanks in advance!

01clothingstoreid = 3324859  --Write your group's id right here, you don't need to worry about anything else, unless you plan on changing colors.
02officeid = 2989165
03familyid = 0
04restuarantid = 0
05game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(onPlayerRespawned) --Connection for the function right below.
06function onPlayerRespawned(newPlayer) --When a player joins the "Players" service.
07    wait(1) --Obviously waits to start the script
08    if newPlayer then --Just checking if the player exist.
09        gui=Instance.new("BillboardGui") --Creating a new BillboardGui
10        gui.Parent=newPlayer.Character.Head --Inserting the BillboardGui into the player.
11        gui.Adornee=newPlayer.Character.Head
12        gui.Size=UDim2.new(4,0,2,0) --Leave this one be.
13        gui.StudsOffset=Vector3.new(0,3,0) --Leave this one be.
14        texta=Instance.new("TextBox") --Creating a new TextBox
15        texta.Size=UDim2.new(1,0,1,0) --Leave this one be.
16        texta.BackgroundTransparency = 1 --1 Makes the background invisible, 0 will show it.
17        texta.Text = ("[ " .. newPlayer:GetRoleInGroup(clothingstoreid) .. " ]") --This changes the text to the rank in a group.
18        texta.TextColor3 = Color3.new(50,10,255) --This is the text color of non-group members.(50,10,255) is white; (0,2,44) is teal
19        texta.Parent=gui --Inserting the TextBox to the BillBoardGui
20        if newPlayer:IsInGroup(clothingstoreid) then --Checking if the player actually belongs to the group.
21            texta.TextColor3 = Color3.new(50,10,255) --This is the text color of group members.(0,0,128) is blue;(23/255,14/255,80/255) is dark purple
22        end
23    end
24end

26function onPlayerEntered(newPlayer)
27    newPlayer.Changed:connect(function (property)
28        if (property == "Character") then

"Attempt to connect failed: Passed value is not a function" "attempt to call a nil value" Aperturee 22 — 7y

What line is that on? Sekant 20 — 7y

Doesn't let me click on it. Aperturee 22 — 7y

Ok now try Sekant 20 — 7y

There's no errors, but there's no Gui's either now. Aperturee 22 — 7y

How do I target a player in a script and change the variable used depending on the team?
