Format your code inside a Code block. To do that: Edit this post, Click on the blue Lua icon which will insert 2 squiggly (~) lines. Paste your code in between the two lines. xPolarium 1388 — 6y

The server does not have access to the children of any PlayerGui folder.. if you want to do UI code set up a front end Sublivion 1 — 6y

Through a** LocalScript**
1 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 |
3 | local playergui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui") |

There is actually no way to get to the player with the touch event on the normal script. And you cant use a localScript to call a touched event. the best and probably only way is using RemoteEvents. Call the remote when the player is touched. call the remote by client
im so sorry if i explained it POORLY. if you can understand it tho, please try it.

in fact you can get the player with the touched event on the server by using :GetPlayerFromCharacter() User#23365 30 — 6y

Change this
1 | local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(plr.Parent) |
To this
1 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
and to access the PlayerGui just do this
1 | local playergui = player.PlayerGui |
Do this with a localscript
