How to make a GUI pop up when brick is clicked?
Code I have so far:
1 | script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Player) |
2 | Player.PlayerGUI.AreYouSureGUI.Frame.Visible = true |
3 | end) |
I know this question has been asked and answered a lot, but trying those solutions would not work! I get this error:
PlayerGUI is not a valid member of Player
What am I doing wrong here?

click detectors only work from remote events now, what you would need to do is have a script in server listening for your click detector to be clicked on, then fire the event client side and have your gui show up from a local script. if you need me to go more in depth just let me know Si_SenorTN 25 — 5y

What I did was I used a RemoteEvent, a script in the brick, and a local script in the GUI.
For the script inside the brick I did this:
1 | local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage") |
2 | local event = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ShowGUI") --The RemoteEvent is named "ShowGUI" |
3 |
4 | script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player) |
5 | event:FireClient(player) --Sending a message through the RemoteEvent to change the GUI |
6 | end) |
Then, with the local script inside the ScreenGui, I did this:
1 | local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage") |
2 | local event = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ShowGUI") |
3 |
4 | event.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player) |
5 | game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.Visible = not game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.Frame.Visible --(I just did this to make it so it would be like a on / off button, you can change the right side of the equals to "true" if you want it to just be a once-activated thing.) |
6 | end) |
This worked for me, I hope it works for you!
