That's because you are calling the function inside the parameters of :Connect. You have to pass the name of the function.
You have two options.
Connect the events like this:
frame.guyA.MouseButton1Down:Connect(selectguy)
And check inside selectguy which button was pressed.
Or you can do this
frame.guyA.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
selectguy("A")
end)
-- do this for all the buttons replacing "A".
This is the way I set up my code when it comes to GUI's.
local frame = script.Parent
frame.Parent.Enabled =true
frame.itspartytime.Text = "It's party time!"
frame.whoru.Text = "First of all, who are you?"
frame.guyA.Text = "A"
frame.guyB.Text = "B"
frame.guyC.Text = "C"
frame.guyD.Text = "D"
local function SelectGuy(Person)
print("Selected")
if frame then
frame:Destroy()
end
return Person
end
frame.guyA.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
selectGuy("A")
end)
frame.guyB.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
selectGuy("B")
end)
frame.guyC.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
selectGuy("C")
end)
frame.guyD.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
selectGuy("D")
end)
The code you pasted never worked for me so I just did that instead...
When you use :Connect and want to put parameter you need :Connect(function()
frame.guyA.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
selectguy("A")
end)
frame.guyB.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
selectguy("B")
end)
frame.guyC.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
selectguy("C")
end)
frame.guyD.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
selectguy("D")
end)
