How do I access everyones playergui inside a server script?
So this first script is a LOCAL SCRIPT This LOCAL SCRIPT is inside a TEXTBUTTON where only certain people can see.
1 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function(plr) |
2 | game.ReplicatedStorage.DisableBalls:FireServer(game.Players:GetPlayers()) |
3 | end) |
The other script is a SERVER SCRIPT And this is inside SERVER SCRIPT SERVICE This is wrong i know that but I just want to know how do i access everyones playergui inside a server script?
1 | game.ReplicatedStorage.DisableBalls.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, localplayer) |
2 | for _,v in pairs(localplayer) do |
3 | v.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui").Spawn.TextButton.Text = "Disabled" |
4 | v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Spawn.TextButton.LocalScript.Disabled = true |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
This was just me having a go at it

to remove a gui on all clients, you could make a local script that fires to a server script which fires to a local script to remove the gui like this:
local script for textbutton
1 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
2 | game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer() |
3 | end) |
server script
1 | game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function() |
2 | game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent2:FireAllClients() |
3 | end) |
local script for removing gui
1 | local players = game.Players:GetPlayers() |
2 |
3 | game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent2.OnClientEvent:Connect(function() |
4 | for i,v in pairs(players) do |
5 | v.PlayerGui.Thing:Destroy() |
6 | end |
7 | end) |
i keep on thinking i dont need to use the for i,v in pairs() do, bc i used :FireAllClients(), but it worked for him on discord so idc lol

1 | for i,plr in next, game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers() do |
2 | local gui=plr:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui"); |
3 | if(gui) then |
4 | --code here |
5 | print(plr.Name.." gui exists!"); |
6 | end |
7 | end |

Yes, as localscripts can only access your own playergui. Troxure 87 — 6y

sadly, it only worked in "play solo" mode but didn't work in Normal game WillBe_Stoped 71 — 6y

It must be in a script, not a localscript. Troxure 87 — 6y

Are you trying to access Localplayer in the script? Troxure 87 — 6y

no everyone WillBe_Stoped 71 — 6y

But do you try to define LocalPlayer anywhere within the script because you can only access LocalPlayer through a localscript, and if youre trying to access it through the script, it could be breaking your script causing your issue... Troxure 87 — 6y

Ok lemme put it this way. When the event is fired i want the server script to access everyone elses playergui and disable a textbutton WillBe_Stoped 71 — 6y

I don't just want the LOCALPLAYER's TextButton thing to be disabled. I want everyone elses WillBe_Stoped 71 — 6y
