I am trying to get all of the buttons inside of a surface gui that is in the workspace but for some reason it’s not finding the buttons, I also tried to specify the specific model earlier and it didn’t start the for loop

print("alive")
local buttons = game.Workspace:GetDescendants()
for i, button in pairs(buttons) do
	print("started")
	if button:IsA("TextButton") then
print("found button")
		if button.Parent == "List" then
			print("got list")

			button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
				print("click")
			button.Parent.Parent.Info.PotionName.Text = button.Name
			
		end)
		end
	end
end

also, the model that has all the surface guis IS inside of the workspace

im doing this on a local script that is inside of the playergui

i tried it in a server script and it still didn’t work

You can post a reply of the solution here and mark it as a solution so it can help those who have the same issue in the future

apparently adding a wait at the start of the script fixed the problem, i guess the workspace wasnt fully loaded in or something when i’d play so it didn’t find anything
