When a value is true, clone a gui why does this not work?

Asked 201 views1 answers

The values are becoming true but the frame just is not 

--<< Variables >>--
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local bool = plr.ShopItems.Knives

--<< Frames >>--
local bg = script.Parent
local knifeinv = bg.Knives
local revinv = bg.Revolver
local abilinv = bg.Abilities
local petinv = bg.Pets
local radioinv = bg.Radios
local newknife = knifeinv.Template

while wait(1) do -- start of loop

if bool.Common.Value == true then
	newknife:Clone()
	newknife.Visible = true
	newknife.Name = "KnifeA"
	newknife.Rarity.ImageColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(43,125,43)
	newknife.Item.Text = "Starter"
end

if bool.Uncommon.Value == true then
	newknife:Clone()
	newknife.Visible = true
	newknife.Name = "KnifeB"
	newknife.Rarity.ImageColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(43,125,43)
	newknife.Item.Text = "Skies"
end

end -- End of Loop

I have a UIGridLayout in this GUI that if cloned, it moves the "newknife" but it does not clone the GUI. There are no errors in console

If you are wanting to clone something and change the properties of the cloned item then...

local part = workspace.Part

local newPart = part:Clone()
newPart.Size = Vector3.New(2,2,2)
newPart.Anchored = true
newPart.Parent = workspace

GUI

local frame = script.Parent

local newFrame = frame:Clone()
newFrame.Size = UDim2.new(.2,0,.2,0)
newFrame.Position = UDim2.new(.5,0,.5,0)
newFrame.AnchorPoint = Vector2.new(.5,.5)
newFrame.Parent = script.Parent.Parent

Its the same process. I was just showing how to do it. I'll update the answer to show the properties of gui elements.

if your using a layout then you do not have to mess with size/position
