Hey guys, so I have made this script so when you touch it a Gui appears, but it seems it doesn't work for some reason? please help.
local Buying = game.StarterGui.Buying.Frame
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(otherPart)
Buying.Visible = true
end)
local Players = game:GetService('Players') -- Getservice get's the Players from gameservice even if Players had a different name
script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit) -- when Touched
if Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) then -- Finds hit.Parent.Name which should be the player
local plr = Players:FindFirstChild(hit.Parent.Name) -- defines the player
plr.PlayerGui.Buying.Visible = true -- Gets the PlayerGui from players and changes Buying to visible
end
end)
Give some context and description.
It's simple, All he wants is the player's Buying to be visible not the startergui's visibility of the Buying
This is because you are using deprecated code, not using a remote event, and using StarterGUI when you use PlayerGUI. You can’t access the PlayerGui from the server and shouldn’t be.
--LocalScript under StarterGui/PlayerGui
local remote = Instance.new('RemoteEvent')
remote.Name = 'ShowGui'
remote.Parent = game:GetService'ReplicatedStorage'
local plr = game:GetService('Players').LocalPlayer
local pgui = plr:WaitForChild'PlayerGui'
local gui = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage').Buying --put the gui in replicated
remote.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(enabled)
if not pgui:FindFirstChild(gui.Name) then -- so we don’t overflow and lag our player
gui:Clone().Parent = pgui --cloning our gui into Playergui, not startergui!!
gui.Frame.Visible = enabled --set visibility
end
end)
.
-- Server script under the part
local plrs = game:GetService'Players'
local rep = game:GetService'ReplicatedStorage'
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(part) --connect is deprecated. use Connect
local plr = plrs:GetPlayerFromCharacter(part.Parent)
if plr then
rep.ShowGui:FireClient(plr, true) -- fire remote to client
end
end)

It's because your changing the startergui's visibility
