I'm trying to put a gui's adornee on the closest part. The part is spawned when people click a button. I tried to use this script:

01local plrName = script.Parent.Name
02local rK = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent).PlayerGui:WaitForChild("RKeyGen")
03 
04while true do
05    for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace.Bricks:GetChildren())do
06        if v.Name == plrName then
07            local pPos = v.Position
08            local lPos = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart").Position
09            local pAvg = (pPos.X + pPos.Y + pPos.Z)/3
10            local lAvg = (lPos.X + lPos.Y + lPos.Z)/3
11            local sAway = math.abs(pAvg - lAvg)
12            v:WaitForChild("NumVal").Value = sAway
13        end
14    end
15    n = 0
16    for i, v in pairs(game.Workspace.Bricks:GetChildren())do
17        if v.Name == plrName then
18            if n ~= 0 then
19                if v:WaitForChild("NumVal").Value > n and v:WaitForChild("NumVal").Value < 10 then
20                    rK.Enabled = true
21                    rK.Adornee = v
22                    n.Value = (v:WaitForChild("NumVal").Value)
23                end
24            else
25                n = (v:WaitForChild("NumVal").Value)
26            end
27        end
28    end
29    wait(0.25)
30end

but it says "attempt to index global 'n' (a number value)" Also, the person who spawned the part can only see the gui on that part.

Any help?
