I am trying to change a number value with a script. Can someone please help me? This is what I have now:

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    game.StarterGui.Frame.TextButton.Text = game.Workspace.Number.Value
end)

What is wrong with this script??

To edit a GUI, you have to call PlayerGui from the player, not the StarterGui

StarterGui

This is a common mistake. PlayerGui clones out of StarterGui every respawn if ResetPlayerGuiOnSpawn is set to true. So, if you edit something in StarterGui, it won’t show until you reset.

PlayerGui

This is where the actual GuiObjects are in. If you edit a property from a GUI in PlayerGui, it will show right away, as this is the live GUI.

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    game.Workspace.Number.Value = YOUR NUMBER HERE
end)

I have a Gui with a text box and a button. I want the number in the text box to be the number in the value after the button is pressed. In other words, the player selects the number. tek_o 56 — 5y
