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!

✓ Accepted answer
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

... Asking for something isnt right, if you know how to do it I will answer, your asking for scripts, you don't need help..

I was asking for wiki links -,-

BTW, time is a horrible variable to set as it is a built in function.

Its a example...
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?

It's just application of prior knowledge, in my opinion.

I'll try it, thanks!
No problem ,just doing my job.
also for my script it removes the gui when you click on that gui
Where do I place the script, also can I have wiki links to where you got this info?
place the script in Workspace or serverscriptstorage
watch codeTheorem roblox game development series he got me started here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/user/bballer13snTV/playlists
serverscriptstorage would reduce lag if you used it
