How do I make a GUI that only shows when you own a gamepass?

Asked 2,289 views1 answers

So i'm making a game and i'm trying to make a teleport button only show up when the player owns a gamepass. I'm very new to scripting and the only tutorial out there for it is one from over a year ago. I tried changing it to work with MarketPlaceService but with no luck.

Here is the script if anyone is able to fix it.

local id = 5549229

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function (plr)
 if game:GetService('MarketplaceService'):PlayerOwnsAsset(plr,id)then
  plr.PlayerGui.teleportGUI.Teleport.Visible = true
 end
end)

Thanks :)

you could change it up a bit and have it so that the gui is enabled by default and store it in server storage and then when a player joins the game check if they have the game pass, and if they do, add the gui to their screen.

You're correct with how you are writing it, yet it's formatted too weirdly, it confused the Script, try writing it like this?

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local MarketPlaceService = game:GetService(MarketPlaceService")
local GamepassId = 5549229

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player) --// Connect with a lowercase has been deprecated too, also there shouldn't be a space between the parentheses 
   if (MarketPlaceService:PlayerOwnsAsset(Player, GamepassId)) then
      Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").teleportGUI.Teleport.Visible = true --//It's best to be precautious as the Folder may not load as fast as the Script runs 
   end
end)

Hope this fixed your issue

Make sure your Script is also Local

Either inside of the GuiObject, or inside of PlayerStarterScripts
