After my last question got answer (Which was very helpful btw) I want to know, how would I clone a ScreenGUI into starter gui and remove it from startgui when done. I need info like would it be a local or regular script and wiki links if possible. Thanks!

Workspace.ScreenGUI:Clone().Parent=StarterGui --assuming its in Workspace after it gets cloned the
--clone is put in starter gui




function onClicked()
--stuff
--stuff
StarterGui.ScreenGUI:Remove()--gets removed at the end
end
StarterGui.ScreenGUI.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClicked)--when screengui is clicked go to function onClicked

i am not sure if its going to be local or regular but i am leaning towards regular. http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=RBX.lua.LocalScript_(Object)

Heres a example, your information was very unformational, so I did this with your information.

time = 1

i = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
i.Parent = game.ScreenGui
wait(time)
i:remove()

What I mean is that I have a Gui in StarterGui and I need a script that can remove it after I click a certain button on that gui Bman8765 270 — 9y

BTW, time is a horrible variable to set as it is a built in function. l0cky2013 135 — 9y

I would do something like this

Example

local waittime=3
function giveGUI(player)
if player and player.PlayerGui then
local gui=game.ServerStorage.Gui:clone()
gui.Parent=player.PlayerGui
wait(waittime)
gui:Destroy()
end
end

Usage

giveGUI(game.Players.Player1)

The code is great and all guys but if you could simply give me wiki links to where you get this data that would be great so I can implement it in in my own way, also should this be a localscript and does it have to be in serverstorage if I made a different script that does this? Bman8765 270 — 9y

It's just application of prior knowledge, in my opinion. l0cky2013 135 — 9y
