I'm trying to create a button that opens up a GUI but it doesn't work, why?
So basically when you click a button it will make these 2 GUIs appear. This is the code I put in the button but it doesn't work:
01 | kickgui1 = game.StarterGui.GUIKick.Frameholder |
02 | warngui1 = game.StarterGui.GUIWarn.Frameholder |
03 |
04 | function onClicked(GUI) |
05 | if kickgui1.Visible == false then |
06 | kickgui1.Visible = true |
07 | warngui1.Visible = true |
08 | else |
09 | warngui1.Visible = false |
10 | kickgui1.Visible = false |
11 | end |
12 | end |
13 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClicked) |

well, you have to use the player gui as the player gui is local to the player, which the starter gui isn't. I.E.
01 | local plr = game.Player.LocalPlayer |
02 | kickgui1 = plr:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").GUIKick.Frameholder |
03 | warngui1 = plr:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").GUIWarn.Frameholder |
04 |
05 | function onClicked(GUI) |
06 | if kickgui1.Visible == false then |
07 | kickgui1.Visible = true |
08 | warngui1.Visible = true |
09 | else |
10 | warngui1.Visible = false |
11 | kickgui1.Visible = false |
12 | end |
13 | end |
14 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onClicked) |
while the starter gui is a child of the game object, the player gui is a child of the player object

I figured out how to fix it:
01 | button = script.Parent |
02 | window = button.Parent |
03 | kickgui1 = window.Parent.Parent.GUIKick:FindFirstChild("Frameholder") |
04 | warngui1 = window.Parent.Parent.GUIWarn:FindFirstChild("Frameholder") |
05 |
06 | function onClicked(GUI) |
07 | if kickgui1.Visible == false then |
08 | kickgui1.Visible = true |
09 | warngui1.Visible = true |
10 | else |
11 | warngui1.Visible = false |
12 | kickgui1.Visible = false |
13 | end |
14 | end |
15 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(onClicked) |
