How would I make someone's amount of money print on a GUI's TextLabel?
Code I have so far:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function()
game.StarterGui:FindFirstChild("Money")
if Money.Value == 0 then
game.StarterGui.MoneyGUI.MoneyFrame.MoneyText.Text = ("'No world means NO MONEY!' -Mr. Krabs")
elseif game.Players.Money > 0 then
game.StarterGui.MoneyGUI.MoneyFrame.MoneyText.Text = game.Players.Money
end
end)
It doesn't work. It leaves the TextLabel (MoneyText) saying 'Label'. What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't its text change to 'No world means NO MONEY! -Mr Krabs'?

I'm a bit confused. You did Money.Value == 0 but on the second argument, you used game.Players.Money > 0? On the second one, you are checking inside of the Player directory. And the StarterGui is the wrong directory. If you want to change a GUI text you need to change the one located in PlayerGui. Here's some code that should help you a bit.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local Money = Player:WaitForChild("Money")
local MoneyGUI = PlayerGui:WaitForChild("MoneyGUI")
if Money.Value <= 0 then
MoneyGUI.MoneyFrame.MoneyText.Text = ("'No world means NO MONEY!' -Mr. Krabs")
else
MoneyGUI.MoneyFrame.MoneyText.Text = Money.Value
end
end)
That won't automatically update though. And that is assuming the Money is located inside of the player and not in a different folder.

I think on the second argument I forgot to put Value after money sean_thecoolman 189 — 4y
