If this answer helped you please make sure you accept it!
Your first problem in the script is this part:
1 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Visible = not "TextLabel" Visible |
Because of this the whole script breaks.
You can't just put "TextLabel" and expect the script the know that is without using a local term.
It should work if you use this.
1 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Visible = not game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Visible |
The second problem is that you need 2 ends:
1 | if sucess then |
2 | cash.Value = data |
3 | else |
4 | print("There was an error whilst getting your data") |
5 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Visible = not game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.Visible |
6 | end -- First one here, without ")" |
7 | end) -- Second one here, with ")" |

When you put it in the script, it makes it so not and game are next to each other, is that correct? Also i also wan tot know what the difference is between an end without a ")" and an end with a ")" so I can learn and use it later in scripting please. Used_Develop 14 — 5y

Also, the ScreenGui is only supposed to show up when the loading fails, it is basically saying "Your save didn't load, please rejoin". I know I should put a then or else somewhere to lead to it opening the gui only if it fails loading. Just not sure where to place it. Used_Develop 14 — 5y
