I thought a parameter inside of a MouseButton1Down event would return the player's name but it keeps outputting, Workspace.Terminal.Part.SurfaceGui.Frame.Start.Script:7: attempt to index local 'player' (a number value)

Can somebody help me out?

local t = script.parent.parent.Title
local s = script.Parent
s.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function(player)
	t:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.065,0,-0.6,0),Enum.EasingDirection.In,Enum.EasingStyle.Back,1)
	s:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.065,0,2,0),Enum.EasingDirection.In,Enum.EasingStyle.Back,1)
	wait (1.5)
	t.Text = "Welcome, ".. player.Name ..". Please enter your passcode:"
	t:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.065,0,0.15,0),Enum.EasingDirection.Out,Enum.EasingStyle.Back,1)

end)

Thanks!

Also, if I try switching it to a LocalScript, it flat out does nothing. Like the script literally won't even print something not even in the function and I don't know why.

You forgot the capitalize parent on the first line (not the answer)

Also, if this is a GUI, you should be using a local script. If you are already using a local script (or you're switching) you can just use game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name for the text.

I've tried using localscript but the tweening flat out doesn't work.

Like it literally wont even function, not printing things even outside of the function.

Figured it out. Put it in starterplayerscripts and it worked.
