script.Parent:WaitForChild("AlertSound"):Play()
wait(15)
script.Parent:WaitForChild("AlertSound"):Stop()
script.Parent:WaitForChild("AlertSound"):Destroy()
script.Parent.Parent.Parent:WaitForChild("CalloutGui"):Destroy()

It's in a script, it works for one of my friends. It doesn't come on my screen though. Any suggestions?

This is the only part that doesn't work. Everything else works perfectly.

It could possibly be that the object hasn't fully loaded yet, returning nil. Use :WaitForChild() or use wait() Rare_tendo 3000 — 6y

I used :WaitForChild() everywhere I could, that's the wrong script too. :p wait a second. killerbrenden 1537 — 6y

Shouldn’t you be using a localscript to do this? User#20279 0 — 6y

I tried it in a localscript and script. With the local script, it only showed on my screen, with a server script, it showed on other people's screen, killerbrenden 1537 — 6y
