Your problem is probably one of two things, either the script is trying to access this "PlayerUI" object before its cloned to the player (In that case, do :WaitForChild("PlayerUI") OR you've put PlayerUI in the wrong place or something like that. Psudar 882 — 5y

I'm assuming that when the script is running, at line 8, it's checking for PlayerUI before it has existed at that time (By that I mean before the PlayerUI hasn't been cloned to PlayerGui at the moment the script was running). To fix this, just add another :WaitForChild for PlayerUI like this: local PlayerUI = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui"):WaitForChild("PlayerUI")
