How do I make it so that a player in a certain team can have this textbutton visible?

Asked Aug 25, 2018238 views3 answers

So I basically want to make it so that if a player is on a certain team (In this instance the team is called "Staff") then This Text Button should be visible for them.

if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Team.Name == "Staff" then
	local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").ScreenGui.Spawn.Disable.Visible = true
end

I have no idea if this works under filtering enabled but when I tried "Play Solo" in studio it didn't work either Add me on discord if you don't get the question 3ptWRLD#8788

You need remote events and learn server to client stuff.

Pretty sure it's not working because if statements run only once.

LocalScript

game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetPropertyChangedSignal("TeamColor"):Connect(function()
	if game.Players.LocalPlayer.TeamColor = BrickColor.new("TEAMCOLOR") then
		game.Players.LocalPlayer.GUI.FRAME.Visible = true -- Set to make your gui visible.
	end
end)

Edit: Above script won't work. Use below instead

Server Script

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.Changed:Connect(function(property)
		if property == "TeamColor" then
			if player.TeamColor == BrickColor.new("COLOR") then
				
			end
		end
	end)
end)

His whole point was for when the team changed. Not when he respawned.

Try this:

Make sure the script is not in startergui but instead, server storage

while wait() do
for _, v in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
  if v:FindFirstChild("Staff") then
      v.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Spawn.Disable.Visible = true
  end  
end
end

Oh and by the way, sometimes your code glitches if you have properties as variables..

Eww GetChildren don't do that. And PlayerGui should NOT be accessed by the server. Use a remote event.

Uhhhhh

incapaz, playergui can be accessed by server, but it only can use guis generated by server, and not startergui

Doesn't work too. :/

AnonymousAug 25, 2018#

wait server script or local script?

AnonymousAug 25, 2018#

localscript

The only reason this won't work is because you are probably using it incorrectly

You can try this LOCAL script. Make sure to put it inside StarterGui.

local Player = game.Player.LocalPlayer

TeamName = "Staff"

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
if Player.Team.Name == TeamName then
local GUI = Player.PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui")
GUI.Spawn.Disable.Visible = true
end
end)

Hope that this works
