I made a script that when the button is click, it changes the text to "Taken by !". I used a parameter to get the player who clicked it, so it knows what to put in the name, but it says my parameter is a nil value. Here is my script
local function OnClick(Click)
script.Parent.TakenBy.Text = ("Taken by"..(Click.Parent.Name).."!")
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(OnClick)
Can someone please help me. Thanks!
It appears, MouseButton1Click callbacks do not have any parameters, so your OnClick function shouldn't either.
However, since GUI + mouse and other input handling code must be in a LocalScript, you can always get the local player like so: local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
As the LocalScript manual states:
For code run through LocalScripts, the LocalPlayer property of the Players service will return the player whose client is running the script.
You probably want something like this:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local function OnClick()
script.Parent.TakenBy.Text = ("Taken by"..(player.Name).."!")
end
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(OnClick)
