Script cannot find the member even though it is there, how to fix?

Asked by

Whenever the server script in the workspace does this code:

local player = "placeholder"



game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)

player = plr.Name

end)



script.Parent.Touched:connect(function()

game.Players[player].PlayerGui.EggONEHandler.Disabled = false

end)

It says in the output

EggONEHandler is not a valid member of PlayerGui

I've checked many times and it is there. Is it because I set it to disabled or is it because of a different reason. Thanks in advance.

If the gui was cloned from startergui it was done locally, and it doesn't exist on the server. Also why are you saving the name if you're using the instance? gullet 471 — 5y
