why wont my script find the things inside playergui?
i made a chat script that teleports me to a friend when i type a command out but it says that chat is not a valid memeber of playergui any idea on how to fix this?
if game.Players:FindFirstChild("kleppolek") then
if game.Players.kleppolek.PlayerGui.ChatFrame.ChatBarParentFrame.Frame.BoxFrame.Frame.ChatBar.Text == "/me wk" then
game.Players.klepplek.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(game.Workspace.world_kiIIer.Head.Position)
end
end
if game.Players:FindFirstChild("world_kiIIer") then
if game.Players.world_kiIIer.PlayerGui.Chat.Frame.ChatBarParentFrame.Frame.BoxFrame.Frame.ChatBar.Text == "/me klep" then
game.Players.world_kiIIer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(game.Workspace.kleppolek.Head.Position)
end
end
also when we tested the game in roblox servers it said that player gui is not a valid member of payer, why? this is a local script inside starterpack

Hello! I'm BlackOrange3343 and I'll be helping you today.
A ServerScript is incapable of accessing the PlayerGui of a Player. In order to access the PlayerGui, you must use the Client in this case a LocalScript. If you wish to start from the server, then you must use a RemoteEvent to signal the Client to change what you want to change.
To fix this:
- Add a
LocalScriptto the client and make sure it can run and access the GUI.
Now in the Local Script:
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
-- Do Stuff here that you wanted to do
end)
and in the Server Script under the command line where you check if the command is correct do:
local RemoteEvent = Instance.new('RemoteEvent')
RemoteEvent.Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage
RemoteEvent:FireClient(Player) -- Make sure Player argument is actually
game:GetService('Debris'):AddItem(RemoteEvent, 1)
With this, you are now able to communicate to the client from the server. Now you can adjust the code accordingly.
Hope this helped! Best of luck developer!
