Why does the GUI and Sound keep on going forever in this script ?
01 | local Main = script.Parent |
02 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
03 | local oGUI = script:FindFirstChild('ScreenGui') |
04 |
05 | Main.Touched:Connect(function(Hit) |
06 | local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent) |
07 | local PlayerGui = Player.PlayerGui |
08 |
09 | if oGUI and Player then |
10 | Main.Sound:Play() |
11 | for n = 0 , 2 , 0.2 do |
12 | Main.Sound.Volume = n |
13 | print('Hi!') |
14 | local GUI = oGUI:Clone() |
15 | GUI.Parent = PlayerGui |

There is an error : 12:12:01.818 - Workspace.Part.Script:8: attempt to index local 'Player' (a nil value) This is a server script BTW

Touched events don't always fire on player characters. Make sure it's a character, then get the gui.
01 | local Main = script.Parent |
02 | local Players = game:GetService("Players") |
03 | local oGUI = script:FindFirstChild('ScreenGui') |
04 |
05 | Main.Touched:Connect(function(Hit) |
06 | local Player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Hit.Parent) |
07 |
08 | if oGUI and Player then |
09 | local PlayerGui = Player.PlayerGui |
10 | Main.Sound:Play() |
11 | for n = 0 , 2 , 0.2 do |
12 | Main.Sound.Volume = n |
13 | print('Hi!') |
14 | local GUI = oGUI:Clone() |
15 | GUI.Parent = PlayerGui |

Once you fix that, tell me if there are any other errors, and I'll edit my post to fix them. compUcomp 417 — 5y

Also, you can't access things inside of PlayerGui from a server script, you can put GUI into it, but you can't remove anything or see things in it MrLonely1221 701 — 5y

Not entirely correct ^. If the server either clones or creates a child and assigns its Parent to a player's PlayerGui, the server can access that child, but it still can't access anything else in the PlayerGui. DeceptiveCaster 3761 — 5y
